Please observe the no smoking and seatbelt lights have...
...been turned, relax, and prepare for a ride...
Destination: The Shadowlands
Population: 75,000
Here we are at Border Village, a peaceful little town inhabited by mostly Bounders, Slugs, and Licks.
Our next stop is Three-Tooth-Lake. Here we are on the shore, and we can see the entrance to the Perilous Pit.
Here we are above the lake. The island in the front is the Isle of Tar.
Here we have the Well of Wishes, home to the imfamous Dopefish.
Our last stop at Three-Tooth-Lake is the Isle of Fire, the dangerous home of the Berkeloid.
Next, we'll journey to the cold, arctic region of the Shadowlands. Here is the entrance to the beatiful, but deadly Crystalus:
Down here is the Chasm of Chills. It's rumored that Princess Lindsay hangs around in here.
Our last stop in this winterous area is the Cave of Descendents, a fantastic underground maze.
Now we journey to the calm, peaceful, Hillville, resident to numerous inchworms.
Next on our tour, we come to the swampish forest of pyramids. Here we can see the Pyramid of the Shadows, and the hidden Pyramid of the Forbidden.
These are the other two pyramids in this swampish forest, and strange and mysterious Pyramid of the Gnosticene Ancients, and the Pyramid of the Moon.
Next we come to the massive castle Sand Yego. Filled with the crazy Arachnut, it is a dangerous outpost.
Here is the beautiful, transparent city of Miragia. You never know when it might disappear.
Our last stop of the day is Lifewater Oasis, a strange plant-filled region.
Hope you enjoyed the tour. Thanks for coming. Remember we have low lodging costs at Slug Village, and very cheap tours of the Pyramid of the Moons!
BTW, do you guys think that this look better if I changed this to cartoon?

Those look really good! I think the fire should have more detail though. They're just kinda orange blobs.

Very nice!
...but I do believe that the Perilous Pit is actually a hole in the ground not a building.

Great! But that wall near the 'no diving' sign, is not reaching into the sky, but rather deep into the ground.

Re: Please observe the no smoking and seatbelt lights have..
Yeah, I agree, the fire is horrible. I really dislike fire in 3DSMax, it's much better in Maya. However I do plan on fixing that.
The possibility of doing cartoon rendering is out, because even with $5000 workstations, it would take probably a day to render each of those images. That's why I had to take raytracing (reflection and refraction) off Miragia and Crystalus
Did anyone notice the easter egg in one of the pics?

I noticed it as well, although it's about 73,000 lightyears off the mark.

You know, when I first looked through, I didn't notice the Easter Egg at all.
Great job! I had at one point wanted to make the Keen 6 world map in 3D, but never got around to it. It's cool to see what you've done with Gnosticus IV. May end up using some of those shots as guides to Shadowlands scenes...

Heh maybe that'll be my next project 
The only problem with modelling worlds as big as this is that even on extremely powerful computers, working with a scene like this goes incredibly slow.

Not bad, not bad at all; it's pretty good for the magnitude of itself.

SPECTACULAR!
The Easter Egg (I believe) is the first picture.
Mirigia is actually an Easter Egg on the map image.

Re: .
I don't get it, how would Miragia be an easter egg? It's supposed to be there.
The easter egg is in one of the Three-Tooth-Lake pics.

Fribbulus Xax would be much easier (not the actual modeling, but because its landscape is much simpler, meaning the computers i make this on won't be constantly crashing).
I think I'll do that next, however I won't have much time to work on it. This model of the Shadowlands was actually incorporated into a school project of mine.

Re: Project?
Yeah, my school has a lab with 25 or so workstations with 3dsmax 5, Maya 4.5 unlimited, photoshop, flash, and much more, and they offer a lot of classes.
