Yeah that was my guess, because in the past I've viewed a whole post and only liked to comment on one picture and going through like 20 photos deleting them all to find the right one is a bit of a pain... lets just hope others have as much time as I do...

Theme of the week : H.R. GIGER

Now finding actual terrain made that resembles anything he's done, or even slighty as warped as he is... IS IMPOSSIBLE
so the next best thing I can do is give you guys a link to his website HR Giger - The Official Website
I did find these, they are photos of a bar that has been designed by Giger himself, very twisted and it gave me a few ideas, maybe it will do the same, the other bars and probably more pictures of this one can be found on the website.

Sorry dude, but I searched the entire terragenesis site and found nothing wacky and crazy, even google-ing found me nothing on "gormenghast" except the book cover and a few shots from the movie...

I searched for "wacky", "crazy", "warped", "twisted" terrain and nothing came up at all.

If you can find anything yourself I emplore(sp?/even a word lol) you to post it here yourself because I have failed you young sir.

That's quite ok, OMGID, as a) those are seriously brilliant Giger photos and b) you've clearly put a lot of effort into looking for my weird request. I did once make a tyranid gun emplacement like the dead creature in Alien, but putting it up here would seem a bit blowing my own trumpet compared to the other quality stuff.

That Giger stuff is very inspiring. One of these days I'll get some clay and make a board like that. Sometime...

I actually tried deviant art and photobucket as well because they have millions upon millions of more photos but I couldn't turn up squat.

Neat thread. Looking forward to seeing what people out there have.

This Is off-theme (sorry), but I had to post this.

Dwarf Fortefied Hilltop/Mine (some Pictures have a Thane for scale refrence)

These are not your average dwarfs. They are 'If you invade us, and fail, we will put your head on a stake as a warning to your kin' dwarfs. They are very mean-spirited. Also pink (not very visible here). This was made by my father, who (obviously) plays dwarfs.

Sorry guys, but I've had a lot of things going on lately, I was out of the house for almost a week cos this place is driving me nuts, and I've just formatted my computer because of this fantastic virus that makes me download stuff at 55 BYTES, NOT kilobytes, but bytes, so that had to go. I'm also capped as well and thus have no ability to be searching the net for hours to find just a few pictures for you all, once I'm uncapped and have a few spare hours I'll go rummaging for some Trench pictures, I'd like to see myself what comes up!

Sorry once more.

That sounds like a bit of a nightmare.
Take a deep breath and step away from the computer with the claw hammer!

Here a little picture of a little trench whilst you wait.

I did a quick google search for images of buildings designed by Antoni Gaudi- that should get you plenty of 'twisted' and 'warped' buildings.

These ones are very cool-
