Two concepts I'm currently working on are making less messy kitbashes and multi structure GRPs. I was inspired by Chaos Island, a Red Alert style RTS based on Jurassic Park. I wanted to make a topic about this for some time but I've been putting it off because I wanted to have more to show. Unfortunately I only have these two thus far.

My next project is a warehouse complete with crane, barrels and boxes.

I'll use both of those in my next mod if that's okay with you. :O

(Well, actually the factory thingy will be part of a larger structure.)

The bonus level in Chaos Island was awesome.

As are these .grps.

Seriously one of the most under appreciated games of all time.

That is the job of whoever is using them. I do one frame and one frame only. If I'm going to put them into a mod, I have someone do the shadows for me.

The first is simpler for an addon or the like, the second was meant to be more of a structure.

Need to re-do some stuff, give the crane a base, maybe make the rax a little nicer. Might remove or darken barrels.

Are they even available for use? I am concerned about their image format (JPG, as opposed to BMP or PNG or similar lossless format).

Photobucket makes them into JPG, all my work is in 24bit BMP like it should be. I planned on releasing a pack after some time but if you need them sooner just send me a PM.
