Haha, I only spotted the one really obvious homage so far, but the fact that you added the killer robot from your last challenge map is awesome. I'm loving this

Thanks, I had to use that golem again it just works so well. I can guess which of the homages who have found, the other one is just a stones throw away

Heh heh. I hadn't even noticed. I miss things once in a while. Now I'm sitting here trying to figure out the thing behind the pillar.

That was supposed to be a giant skull but it ended up looking too much like a cheap Cubone from Pokemon so I kind of tried to hide it in the back.

I really love this entry and great move in putting in all the easter eggs as well!

**LonewandererD** · 02-09-2011, 06:16 AM

Well then you are going love one of the easter eggs I have planned

lol...eek! The one I can't quite place is the colour map on the back wall, is that, is it Clercon's featured map?

pm me the answer so there are no spoilers!

I have more! Making stuff to try and resemble and olden day feel is kind of fun really, I added a background (it's supposed to kind of a leather desk top, the woodboard effect didn't work) the first part of the title (will work on that more, I want to be kind of cartoony) and a telegram. There are four new easter eggs, can you spot them?

More to come soon.

Lol, very good! You've got me hooked on your WIPS now, looking for the easter eggs, (not that I wouldn't have kept up with it without the easter eggs).

**LonewandererD** · 02-09-2011, 10:51 AM

Okay, almost done, I added in two more letters, one from a jeweller and one from the Inspector. I'm now going to add a newspaper clipping and will spruce up the title to be more noticeable and maybe a bit cartoony. Looking at it now it does seem to be missing something but I can't figure out what, any ideas? A border perhaps? As I'm almost done and have plenty of time until the deadline of the comp I might set this aside for a few days or a week to get other stuff done.
