Thread: Yet another citymap!

  1. #1

    Default Yet another citymap!

    Hello everyone!

    Haven't been that active this autumn (or well, even less then the little activity I usually show), but been lurking and I have to say, very impressed with all the great work everyone are producing!

    Anyhow, probably will regret getting into this, really don't have time at all, but I want to create at least one larger city map this year so here we go. Hopefully there will be several updates to follow. This is what I have started sketching so far! Opposed to my different cities, I'm going for something smaller (and larger), while following a grid plan. Perhaps you could call it more classic.

    Not much more to say right now.

    Cheers,
    Tainotim

    Exciting stuff, Tainotim! Your work is always hugely inspiring (no pressure ) and the prospect of another city map... oooh, I can't wait!

    Great start by the way!

    +1 . And btw, I'm wondering why so many fantasy cities have a circle shape.

    I think circular walled cities have less blind spots than rectangular ones so it's easier to spot would be miscreants that have managed to sneak up to the wall.

    Hmmm. Yeah, considering Discworld's Watch, for example, the architects definitely have to help them .

    Any news on this, Tainotim, btw?

    Big thanks for all the support people!

    Regrettably my fears were real, and I completely lost track of this piece. However yesterday I got some work in. Not certain if I want to continue with this piece, I just don't "feel it". The style feels like a step backward from what I am trying to learn, but it still looks alright I guess. I really want to achieve something more dark and perhaps gothic with this.

    Hope people like where this is going anyway!

    Cheers,
    Tainotim

    Got some further work in today. My deadline is the 21th, but if I keep this up I might have a finished BW version done by then!

    Cheers,
