Booster's Tower 3D (Source Engine)

Hey guys, I'm making a 3D recreation of Booster's Tower from Super Mario RPG!

My goal is to make it into a control-point map for Team Fortress 2.

This is a VERY early preview of the work in progress

All models you see (including Snifit) are made and animated by me.

[edit] Proper lighting now

Thanks everyone! I'm glad you like what you see! I'm working every day on this and hopefully by November or December, I will have a complete release.

Team Fortress 2 is fortunately free to play, so you will all get a chance to try it out!

I am constantly posting new screenshots as work progresses, on my steam profile, located here:

You can see some screenshots of the other models I've made so far, like the Bobomb and the Fireball.
I am currently working on the item chest model.
 
Yes definitely, that's the goal.

I'm including lots of easter eggs too, such as hidden rooms that weren't in the original tower.
It will be fun to explore even if you don't like first-person shooters. :D
 
I'd rather not give a release date. But I CAN promise that it will be done by Christmas, at least. I've been completing a single model each day for the past week, so if I keep this pace up I'll already have all the model assets done by this week, and can actually begin making the rooms themselves very soon.

The Chomp is actually the next model I'm making. :) And should be the last one, too. Just finished the Thwomp, check it out.

I take it you've so far only done that one room? It looks really good and professional; have high hopes for some grand Sniper vantage points.

Although those stairs bother me a bit. Perhaps ye should make them inclined, so people can simply walk up them rather than having to jump up them. Just a thought.
