November/December 2015 Challenge: Larb's commission - Umi No Toride

[ChickPea]

Wow, this is looking great already. Hurry up Larb and send instructions, so we can see some progress!

[Larb]

PS Larb - I messaged you but haven't heard back - are you wanting the inner walls [building interiors] to show in the top down? or the roofs?
Or some deranged combo of both? Like some sort of semi transparent roofs?
I was waiting to hear back before doing any final line work on the lower part.

Oh sorry! I did reply but when I just checked my sent items box it seemed it didn't go through.

I said in it that I'd only really expected the central keep in the middle to have floor plans or have the internals drawn because that is the main focal point of the keep - the periphery buildings being services or guard towers.

Larb - I've done several similar things with messages.
Okay. That shouldn't be a problem. Might tweak the document layout a bit to accommodate that.
Well, I've got my weekend work cut out for me.

[J.Edward]

Got a lot done today but so much more to do yet.
This is still a bit of a tentative layout. The 3 blocks would be floor levels for the keep.
May change this though.

God that is looking pretty fabulous.

[J.Edward]

I aim to please.
Got a bit more done and started to add some color to the roofs.
Must pack as much into the weekend as possible.

Great work J. Are the right side boxes going to be interior layout or is this all meant to be used as reference to storm the castle (all exterior and rooftop views)? Either way, it's looking fabulous.

[J.Edward]

Thanks Chashio. The boxes are just place holders for the interior level drawings as I haven't drawn those yet.
I may include the keep and a few other buildings so I may have to adjust the size of the layout to accommodate that change.

Looks amazing, really nice to see you go from Sketchup to the layout. Your process is always a learning experience. Look forward to seeing this next masterpiece.

[J.Edward]

Thanks Snodsy.
I'm glad to be mostly done with those rocky outcroppings. And the roofs.
Just a midday update. I'll be doing more today and will update tonight.
