Thread: WIP - Long Term Doodle - Plumton, the town of Prunes

    The guy on the toilet is supposed to be the usual cliché image of Rodin's "Thinker" - "on the job", as it were. Yes. Contemplating a pile of prunes - as one does. The Latin is almost certainly wrong - pidgin Latin works for me tho!
    I'm curious that no one has mentioned yet either the Monty Python reference or the dead snorkeller? Perhaps they were just being polite?

    Oh, OK!
    It's actually down to me and whether I managed to portray these things with the pixels I got ! It's kinda tricky and it's useful to know if you could identify things or not.

    SPOILER ALERT ----
    The snorkeller is one of the "catch" the fismonger has on the quayside by the fishtrap (hence the addition "(tourist)"). The Monty Python reference is next to the lock - and is supposed to be the "fish dance" skit.

    Are the two men with the fishes the Monty Python reference?

    I think this is most of the buildings done. I still have "stuff" to add to the streets but I'm having inspirational problems as to what. There's also the border and textual elements so I'm probably gonna let this stew as it is for a while and add things as they come to me.
    I would really appreciate any comments and especially critique on this at this stage. It'd also be extremely useful if there are any bits you don't understand or can't figure out what the drawing is? It's obvious to me coz I drew it but the resolution means that I may not have succeeded it getting it across?
    Anyway, here's the latest update, I hope the CG Tower is up to scratch?

    this is awesome! I tried to do some pieces that detailled but just couldn't get myself motivated over and over ... so you got get my respect just for keeping at it... and with that it looks great too... a perfect example of how details do make the difference. gz man!
