We at the mod are asking for help with Alien vegetation and minerals (rocks) to help populate the many different worlds of WH40K. There are only a few modellers in our mod and their time is allocated; so we are asking those of you who would truly like to help - but you don't know how.

To make a 3d model; you could use google sketchup. Look at the basic tutorials in youtube for them.

Here is a fairly straight forward method to create the models. Watch the example video.

sketchup tree creation

After you walk through the basic videos follow along on the video link I supplied above to understand how to make a model.

Save as 3ds and send to us and we will incorporate it into a new world.
Then you can play in a mission and marvel at your work and others.

Alright so what are we looking for as far as vegetation is concerned; anything that looks out of this world.
A good idea or rule of thumb; if your imagination is not yielding any good visionary examples are: check out pics of " WH40K tournament play" in a google search or sites like devian art or anything SCI-FI related with plant fauna flora etc....

Tau Worlds
Necron Worlds
Ork Worlds
Eldar / Dark Eldar Worlds
Chaos Worlds

Considering that most planets associated with the Wh40k world dont have trees, with the content we have its a matter of map making skills , sure we could do with a few rocks but i dont think trees will be the answer. Maybe just more buildings and such and some sort of a mod for the Sky mod thing , something that would give atmosphere to the game.

Here are some examples.

I'm thinking vegetation is just as integral an immersive experience as are buildings. You wouldn't play catachan missions in Pine forests as an example you would like a jungle blend if you get my meaning. So ya the more we have for diversity the better the overall playing experience.
