[mixerbach]

Wow! Looks great already, snodsy! Looking forward to seeing where you go with it.

This is looking great Snodsy! I like the cliffs in the back ground especially, those are done really well! Corpses in the water? And I thought my humongous fish were bad!!! lol

Here's an update struggling a bit with color, and lots of details to draw, and the two illustrations, hopefully a good weekend ahead to put some continuous time in. Comments welcome.

Looks awesome! The buildings have a lot of depth, and I love how they're square, that isn't too common.

[Ilanthar]

Very good! You've found just the right color palette and I really like the layout of the town.

### Latest WIP ### DeathSilkRoad4.jpg

Here an update with some of the events going on and some place labels. Starting destroying the town slowly now, we'll see where it goes. Two illustrations to do. Changed the color palette to have a light "sand" tone at least on my screen - maybe too much - what do you think??. Comments welcome, have plenty of work still to do.

[Ilanthar]

Hmm. I don't know, I kinda liked the previous one. It's bright sand against more rocky/dirty/dark sand, I suppose. Maybe you could do a bit of a mix? Some places more in the first style, some places more in the second one... Just ideas.

[snodsy]

Thanks Ilanthar, after looking at it again, I agree, probably darker, then the (deadly) White sands become more obvious, thanks for taking the time to look at it.

Looking great, snodsy.

My only comment is the "15 moons ago fungus..." part gets a little hard to read over the trees, especially fungus. It might just be me though.

Other than that I like the colors, depth, and layout and look forward to seeing it finished.

[snodsy]

Thanks for the comments savage orc.
Here an update, playing around with the border, color of text, title & shape. The 4 corner illustrations I thought worked well. The main well illustration may be too bright and have to add another illustration somewhere? DeathSilkRoad5.jpg
