October Entry: Griffons Quarter
Well this is my first try to create a town map actually so this should be a nice experience for me
This is my first WiP to give you an idea what I plan to do. Please feel free to comment. I'll try to give the town an autumn feeling.
The houses are from the Dundjinni forums as is the tree and the fences. I plan to use more of them.
The map itself is done in GIMP.

Anyways a small update, to show more of the idea behind.

No not a bad sign at all, folks don't seem to be commenting as much on this months challenge.
I was waiting until I saw a bit more before I made any comments. I like what I see so far, nice to see a bit of autumnal colors.

for an autumnal setting I would de-green the grass ground covering just a tad. Looks a little spingish
One does not get to use the word "Autumnal" enough
Something witty and pithy
My back has been out for a few days so I've been here...just responding to anything overt sticking out. This is looking good but I'd shrink the texture of the pebble paths...they look to big to be a real pebble path. Nice job so far and maybe add some detail in the chimney smoke...some gray or something.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

WiP Update
Ok, another update here.
I agreee Ascension, the pebbles were to big. I am gonna worry about those details like smoke at the end. I just wanted to add some to see how looks like.
In this WiP I added some market stands, I hope they'll fit in.

This is turning out nicely Sage.
I think it would make more sense to have the market stands grouped around a central area or at least grouped closer together.

Heh SG, you know I thought exactly the same. Though I am not sure if I will solve it but not all buildings allready have a fixed location (like the fountain that I allready moved around).Originally Posted by Steel General
My biggest problem is, that I dont wanna have a dominating market place and if I would group it up in the middle I guess that would happen.

Yeah, you are right about that, it was just an idea anyway. Stick with your "vision".
