airfield germany

maybe this will help
this was an airfield used as a concentration camp in lublin in 1941, the map is an outline of the entire area.
It seems to me that if nazi's were doing experiments with people (turning them into zombies) it would be in places like this

Please clarify your intentions

You are obviously creating a very ambitious production. That is way cool! I'm sure the Wreck-A-Movie community will be honored to help you out.

But we must have CLEAR and FOCUSED tasks in order for us to get into work. All the tasks you've given us so far are just too vague.

For example, you ask for conseptual designs for 1945 Austria and present day Kentucky.

My questions to you include:
1) Are you looking for city or countryside designs?
2) Should there be people in the shot? And what kinda characters should we include? Military or civilian?
3) What is the context of this shot (a riot in Vienna, Air combat over the Alps or peaceful dairy fields in Kentucky..)?
4) What is the look and feel you are thinking about (the brown-and-grey tint of the Band of Brothers or the lush green vegetation of the Thin Red Line)?
5) Give us examples! Who are your reference artists or inspirations?

And please, don't get discouraged! Wreck-A-Movie is a wonderful tool, but it is tricky to use in the right way.. All you need is practice!

PS. One visual reference i can give you comes from my own experience. The wheat fields of Kentucky are just unbelievably VAST and FLAT.

Once upon a time i happened to be standing on a small hill just as a crazy thunderstorm was approaching my location. You could see the storm's energy from a hundred miles away. The clouds were thick like concrete bricks, and the air was colored in a mean tint of green-black.

Lightning crackled at a distance, tornado warnings were flashing red, and my blonde hair was standing straight up in fear.

No tornado eventually appeared (to our relief/disappointment), but the heavy rain created an amazing TRIPPLE RAINBOW - Three perfect arcs of beauty soaring from eastern horizon all the way to the west. The middle one had the most colors i'd ever seen.

I've seen plenty of beauty in my lifetime, but that tripple rainbow ranks up there..

The area we are emulating for Kentucky is Appalachia, which is old green mountains that are continually fringed with wisps of clouds

1) Are you looking for city or countryside designs?

We are looking for an airfield that would be set in rural Germany during WW2

2) Should there be people in the shot? And what kinda characters should we include? Military or civilian?

All military

3) What is the context of this shot (a riot in Vienna, Air combat over the Alps or peaceful dairy fields in Kentucky..)?

The shot should evolve from an airfield which is under attack from the air to a placid flowing cloudscape

4) What is the look and feel you are thinking about (the brown-and-grey tint of the Band of Brothers or the lush green vegetation of the Thin Red Line)?

Brown and green, heavily de-saturated

5) Give us examples! Who are your reference artists or inspirations?

Definitely the look of Kelly's Hero in the opening title sequence

Das Boot, the smell and stench of war.

For the Kentucky sequences, Miller's Crossing
