Job Description

I am looking for low poly models of terrain and cliffs done in 3ds max. This will be used in a 2.5d flash game featuring viewing angles of both isometric and slight top down field of views.

Rather than modeling a whole scene of terrain I need specific tiles made, that will be pieced together in game. Please see this screen shot of a moch up that I made in 3ds max to illustrate what im looking for.

(please note that these tiles are not completely done, but mearly give a visual of what I mean when I ask for 3d tiles that will be rendered 2.5d)

These should be low poly models so a lot of detail is not needed (wont see very much at zoom level). Also the textures used should resemble the game Starcraft II being produced by blizzard entertainment.

Here are some shots that show the kind of textures/bumpmaps etc im looking for in the tile, and the amount of detail in the models.

Note: for my 9 tile illustration, only 3 tiles were made out of 5. As stated in the image, since they 'tile' you should be able to rotate them to have them fit in other locations (see the last link for screen shot). So you will need to be very accurate at the vertecies and edges when modeling.

If you dont understand terms like 'game tiles', 2d, 2.5d, isometric, or have not worked with games please think very carefuly about bidding. Even if you a decent modeler in 3ds, being familiar with PC games will definetly help.

Please only show related works. (3d terrain, any modeling related to games, any tile graphics are a huge plus) I do not need to see things like people or animals rendered unless they are extremely great and were modled by you, and the textures were made by you also.

I will put out there that I am looking for low bids.
