Another Island

I did this after creating the snow island. Here I am just playing around with the use of space and how my Game scene might fit on the 100x100m plane.
I am definitely going to try and be more specific with the height of set  if I try this out again and in other game sets so I get used to the mathematical side of creating it.

Doing this reminded me of the render settings that can be used such as the 'skyboxes'. 
I have added a sea here too, no main reason, just playing with the different assets in different scenes to see how they look.

I also found that I need to find the best numerical value of how my textures are tiled because as you can see below the grass texture may need to have more detail in my opinion, far away it looks good but if my character was running around this scene, it would not look very realistic which means that trying to convey FEAR, AWE, CALM, DISGUST or JOY would not work.


The iceland compared to this tropical island would help me decide how to add more depth and detail into this scene. It would also help me decide what type of character my first person controller, for example is my character stranded on this island and is he/she the first to be stranded. This would help determine what kind of props I should be thinking about.

Overall, this is still an early stage for me as I am just experimenting with different scenes and seeing how lighting and environment can influence different types of themes.
