Hi everyone! I'm planning to do some city icons for my commission map I'm working on (Eastmott) but I'm not too great at them because I have not done them too much before.

The sort of icon is something like you might find on one of Max's maps, a sort of miniture stylized version of a city:

I was wondering if anyone would like to walk me through their process for making icons like these, just to shed a bit of light on it. If not I'll just have to soldier through. Thanks!
