July/Aug 2012 Lite Challenge Entry: The City of Trovesport, Jewel of the Crown

[LindaJeanne]

Elevation contours fixed to put the river in a river bed. (Previously, the surface water was sort of floating just above the surface).

Edited to add: oops, looks like I forgot to turn one of the ocean layers back on before exporting. The ocean contours are still there, they're just hidden in this view.

[LindaJeanne]

I've begun putting in the larger houses. Slightly higher resolution export this time.

Very clean. I like it =)

[Tigon]

Yeah, very nice indeed! Looks like a cracking freshwater source for the city too. Are you going to run an aqueduct in?

Thanks!

I was playing around with ideas for visibly getting fresh water to the northern part of the city, but I'm not sure if I will or not.

I'm not sure what you mean by "cracking" in this context



OK. A few more houses, and a bit more detail to the existing houses. I'm going to be seeing little polygons in my sleep tonight, i think .

Hmm... not sure I like the how the roofs are on the tiniest buildings. Might have to re-do those.

[Tigon]

"cracking" means good in this context. You might be better off without the sloped roofing showing of course.

[lostatsea]

Looking straight down you wouldn't see the "gables " of the roofs. (The small end triangles). As they are actually part of the side walls. Other than tha this is coming along great !!!

[Chashio]

I think they're hip roofs, not gable. But that might be a better style to try if you're not happy with what you have.

[LindaJeanne]

Yup, the small buildings currently have hip roofs . I think I'm going to try changing them to mansard -- if that doesn't work, I may remove the internal roof lines entirely and have them go back to just being outlines.

[Thurlor]

Nice work. Such a nice, clean, stylised map.
