Welcome contestants - the Iron Hideout Competition #9 awaits you!
1. Positive Feedback We are happy to present a new addition of benefits! Our team of jurors will give positive feedback to each submission that made it to the voting stage! You'd like to hear some kind words and praise for your heartfelt work of art? Just post it here following the rules and keep the theme in mind - it's that easy. 2. Showcase Example Here is an example to inspire you. ![]() Download: https://hideoutshowcase.com/hideout/show/4611/title/Madness%20in%20Wonderland Video: https://youtu.be/uCMj2DEySto This is a showcase sample and will not be considered for prizes or voting. The chosen theme is Alice in Wonderland but with a dark twist inspired by the video game 'Madness Returns". 3. Guidance
Spoiler
A) Conception or 'Where do I even start?' The first thing I start with is choose a theme. In this Iron Hideout Competition the theme is Wonderland. My take on that is the obvious Alice in Wonderland but inspired by the video game 'Madness Returns'. Next, I decide on the base hideout. It is important to have a vague idea on what you want to create, which scenes and how much space you'll need. What size do you want your hideout to be? Bigger is not always better as you will reach the object limit sooner if you want to decorate it all but too small might be not enough space to implement your ideas. Some hideouts have special effects that may suit your theme like the sandstorm in Desert Hideout, snow in Alpine Hideout or rain in Unearthed Hideout. Perhaps you can make use of the hideout surroundings for your idea or you want to hide them and make it completely unrecognizable. Most hideouts have some kinde of unique topography like stairs, areas higher or lower, maybe even a water feature that you have to hide or can take advantage of in your hideout. I wanted many different scenes which need a medium sized hideout, a scene with a Cheshire cat grin out of glowing objects in the dark which needs a very dark hideout. At this point it was between divided or brutal hideout and the unique light effect of the divided hideout (changes lighting depending on the side you are on) was chaotic enough to fit the madness theme, so my choice was set. After the hideout base I brainstorm some possible scenes, points of interest, landmarks - a collection of ideas that would be fitting my chosen theme. For this hideout I wanted scenes from: Cheshire cat grin, tea party, forest, queen of heart castle. With this in mind I roughly separated the hideout in four parts. With that done, I have the theme, hideout base, scene ideas and a basic layout to start the building process. Sometimes I even do little drawing of the hideout layout but this time it was more organic and I changed it as I built. This lead to more areas being added like the caterpillar or the queen's garden that were not planned from the beginning. I find that having this groundwork done with layout and scenes is very helpful to keep the hideout more cohesive and structured. Think about what you want to create, where, why and how before you do it. I keep a text file with ideas and progress notes for all hideouts I create. B) Lighting Illumination is a very important tool and can make the difference between night and day, literally. As a beginner I hated using a dark hideout because you have to put light everywhere and you cannot see your creations but it can be a real boon to manipulate every shadow to your whim. The rough basics on lights: -Be aware of the light intensity: Oriath Lantern 5 and Iron Candelabra 2, for example, are very intense with a bright glare while Iron Lantern variations are medium and Iron Candelabra 7 or Innocence Candle Row are more soft with low intensiveness. -Be aware of the light position: Oriath Lantern shines from up high, Iron Lantern from medium height while Azurite Chunk 12 is situated as low as can be. This can be very useful if you want to highlight objects from certain heights. Even the same light intensitiy shone from up above or down below will look vastly different. -Be aware of the light color: Most objects shine in a pale yellow or fiery red but the Iron Lantern variations and Thaumaturgy Pillar offer a wide variety of colors. The color choice will influence the look! The same color can make your hideout more cohesive while a different one can put the focus on parts you want highlighted. -Be aware not everything that glows is light! An even more advanced method is to use the darkness instead of the light. Work with glowing objects that do not emit light to contrast the darkness around them like Azurite Chunk, Sewer Moss or some variations of Ryslatha Tree and Arakaali Egg. It is important to know your tools as an artisan so I suggest getting comfortable with every hideout object but to start you can use the object tag filter "Lights" to show most of the available lights to choose from. Experiment with them place them in darkness, move them back and forth and see what it does with highlight and shadows. ![]() ![]() https://i.imgur.com/Wu1mEC0.png Here we have an example without lights and with lights added. The difference is obvious but just putting in lights is not enough you also have to be aware of where you place them and what color you use! A really great technique I can highly recommend is placing lights inside or behind objects to highlight them. I placed Iron Lantern with green lights behind the horns, left and right of the screen, to highlight the Toxic Pod, Grass Patch and Ryslatha Tree roots. The lights are hidden within the Kitava Horns, they give a nice background shine to the highlighted objects and with a green color compliment the verdant plants to make them look more lively. I put a Innocence Candle Row inside the Vaal Block to give it a red glow that shines through the gaps, quite striking! Innocence Candle Row has a very low position which helps it being hidden where other options like Iron Lantern would peak out of the Vaal BLock. The color red was chosen to contrast the surrounding, to be colorfull, to create some mild entropy. The caterpillar monster looks amazing and that is mostly thanks to the lighting. I made some worm creatures in the past but this time I wanted the caterpillar to have a segmented body. You can clearly see gaps between the Labyrinth Cog 6 parts. Now we use the method of placing light inside and behind objects. By placing a light in the gaps but at the start of each it will shine on the front Labyrinth Cog 6 part of the next segment, highlighting it and incidentally the many legs. Iron Lantern 12 was chosen for the blue light as it was based on a blue caterpillar and another colorful light for the scene. ![]() https://i.imgur.com/wXe74QF.png The Cheshire Cat grin. This is possible because we make use of the darkness to hide things. You can see if we add a lantern light to the left side that I used Abyssal Whale Bones to shape the Azurite Chunk 10 into a cat like eye. You can use the lack of lights to hide jagged edges or bad transitions, the opposite of highlighting them. TIP: Use a bright light somewhere near and it will darken the surrounding outside the light range even more! If you have chosen a bright hideout base don't be discouraged. You can create artificial shadow with big objects like Fellshrine Ruins, Large Church Wall Arch or certain trees but be aware that the shadow will disappear if you are too far away from the object. C) Object Stacking Object Stacking is another great tool to really show your creativity. The hideout decorations available are limited but your ideas are not! By cleverly combining the available resources you can create something new and amazing. I like the comparison to LEGO. One easy way to start your journey into the exciting world of object stacking is just placing the same decoration perfectly on itself but change the angle with 'R' for each one. TIP: Use the arrows to move the decoration and align it by perfectly overlapping the name in editor mode. For example with some Crypt Pillar 2 you can make a nice medieval tower like that. Don't be afraid of mixing and matching decorations to see how they look. Try to think outside the box and use objects how they look not for their intended use. A Crypt Tomb 14? Could be used as the base of a Card. Torture Urn 4? I can use that as a tea cup! It can be an arduous proccess, often moving parts back and forth, left and right until they have the desired shape or not. But once you have completed what you set out to build and it actually looks good? That feeling of accomplishment is incredible. ![]() https://i.imgur.com/JQfwNza.png Here we have the crazy tea party scene, the one I like the most. I'll explain some of the object stacking used in creating this scene. Tea Kettle: Theurgic Precipitate Machine was used as belly, Tower Archway 1 for a handle and Kitava Horns 3 for the spout. Iron Candelabra 5 for shadow and light to hide the portruding horn from Kitava Horns 3 in the middle and focus the attention more on the side of the tea kettle. Tea Cup: Here we have Torture Urn 4 placed in such a way to hide out bodybehind the urn. Rusty Disk 1 or Bathhouse Mosaic 1 for the plate. Laboratory ALembic is the bubbling black liquid inside the cup. Cards: Crypt Tomb 12 or 14 but 2 stacked on each other with one angled 180° to have that iconic mirrored portrait look cards have. Luckily the upper side of the body has higher elevation and does not clip with the lower part. Volcanic Pebble 14 and 4,3,7 are used for the numbers and symbols. Small Tea Cup: Rope Basket for the cup. The back of an Oil Lamp for the handle and to hide the rest of the Oil Lamp inside a Shore Rock 16. Big Clock: Primeval Floor Mural 5 and Vaal Mechanism 1 for the background with Summoning Circle 3 for the hour and minute hands. As the summoning Circle 3 has four pointing arrows we try to hide two of them as they are not needed for the clock look. Small CLock: Map device Parts 7 with Vaal Mechanism 4 for the background and Broken Ornate Fence 7 for the hour and minute hands. March Hare Head: I started this with the iconic rabbit ears and used Kitava Horns 3 as they have the dark organic look, height and perfect position with an edge. Add in Rusty Crane 2 to make the ears more mechanical and hide some of the middle parts. Three Labyrinth Cogs 9 make up the base of the head. Cleverly stacked Karui Carving 4 just clip a tiny bit to make a tiny iris, giving off a disturbed crazy look. Labyrinth Cogs 8 for the nose and two Karui Carving 1 for the buck tooth. A Labyrinth Cogs 6 in the middle of the face to have more round lifelike features. Done. Not that many decorations used for a great look. 4. My Thoughts on Theme & Judgment
Spoiler
This is purely my own opinion and NOT representative of all judges.
The theme Wonderland can be broad and specific at the same time. It could be as generic as Alice in Wonderland, it could be a Winter Wonderland, it could have a dark twist to it, it could be a land of wonders. A place were you are astonished and amazed by every corner. There should be multiple WOW-effects, marvelous sights and just wonderful. Is it an alien planet full of unknown creatures and plants in rainbow colors or a magical unicorn forest or a hellish landscape with colossal structures reaching the sky. I would consider a WONDERland anything that makes my jaw drop in wonder but to be considered a wonderLAND it must be more than one thing, a whole land full of wonders. If anyone is curious, I will judge submissions on 3 aspects: Skill (Is it pleasant to look at? No flickering or misalignments? How is the lighting?) Creativity (Are there original object combinations? An interesting way to show your chosen theme?) Theme (How well does your submission fit the theme of wonderland?)
