17 - White Hill [Azelor]

[Mouse]

Oh my - this is looking good!

The colours are very much up to you, Azelor.

in Atlas Ward (a relatively well-off lakeside area) I have used tiles and slates (three tones of scale shaped cathedral tiles - yellow/orange/red, and three tones of slate - blue/green/pink). Others have used stone slabs (which are likely to be local and limestone colour unless its a rich area where people can fork out for imported stone slabs) and flat roofs (which can be any colour I guess, depending on what they are made of and covered with). I also have a fair few wooden plank roofs in the slum area, where people just grab what they can.

Its entirely up to you, as to what you think your roofs are made of. IMHO, a fair variety of things makes for a more interesting map

EDIT: unless you add the variety in with different roof shapes instead of colours

Your drawing was promising, now colors and shadows are delivering that promise.

Given the recent ramblings on shadows... (and I tell you this with urgency before you do any more work) - rooftops are hit by direct sunlight if the sun is at 69º, unless the roof is inclined at 70º or more (which is swiss alps kind of roofing). Which is a good thing, you don't need to shadow rooftops, only highlight a bit those that face the sun more directly.
