    Default November/December 2015 Challenge: City of Seyazade

    So, I'm going to do a team with Romeinoneday for this challenge, and he sent me this commission :

    My commission to you is:
    A city on a coast. But it's much longer than it is deep. The city is bordered by a cliff face and building up the cliff is impossible. So instead the citizens build along the coast of the strange island they inhabit. It doesn't have to be a large city, just a general idea.
    I've decided to use my new skills with sketchup to have an idea of the cliff and probably for the shadows too. The rest, I'll work it out with my usual software. I immediately thought of the Etreta site (in France) and took inspiration of it for the cliff.
    So, here's my version of the cliff, and the beginning of the city layout.

    I don't know if I'll go for an iso view or not for this one...

    This is pretty much spot on with what I was thinking. Coincidentally, I was thinking Mediterranean Coast. I love it so far. Can't wait to see what you do with it next.

    Thanks a lot guys ! And very reassuring to see I've not misinterpreted your commission, Romeinoneday. Don't hesitate to tell me or put suggestions/precisions whenever it's required.
    I've finished the general plan and I'm going 3D. So, 2 iso views and a top view, to give an idea.

    Oh, great shapes! I bet that city is a favorite subject of artists. Do you think you'll include some indication of the local colors or stick with greyscale for the time-frame?

    Okay, that's just freaking cool. I LOVE the harbor layout.

    You should make big stone heads sculpted into the pillars. (Sorry; just fanboy gushing. )
