Very nice work so far Steel General. I love the dark feel and the big lighted skull is especially good. Didn't get the hill idea either, it looks more like something on the floor.
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.

Here's a bit of an update, tried to redo the hill outside - trying to make it look like its got some sort of glowing green lichen/moss on it.
Added walls around the temple and added a 'skull-shaped' foundation beneath it that has a bit of a glow to it.

Not sure if this really captures the hill effect, but it seems that way to me.... unfortunately, it's to dark to really do a good job on it.

I'm still debating on whether to keep that thing in their or not. If I can come up with a better idea for something to put there I'll take the mound out.
But I'm pretty happy with everything else.

I'd say just dump the hill idea...it looks fine as a pit.

OK, I've decided to dump the whole skull mound thing and replace it with another faintly lit skull overlay.
I was going to add a crypt/basement but decided against it. So unless anyone has other ideas for what this is missing or would make a good addition I think I'll call it done.

Thanks....I actually had given that some thought, I didn't want to do outbuildings, so the non-undead ones (Dyrge does have some undead clergy) would live nearby and the undead could dwell in the cellar/crypt.
