Hey all, I have a question.

For one of my stories i have a settlement that has built into an extinct volcano and have expanded the community down of of the ravines. I have a ruff idea of how it looks in my head and I've been meddling in PS with my rather poor drawing skills, but I'm unsure if Im doing this the right way. Would it be easier to design the city first, than the ravine/crater or design the ravine/crater first and try and put the city in? (keeping in mind that I only have 1 'must have' building the rest are fluff.

(rather bad example of the general 'layout' I was thinking. complete with 'must have' building... yeah.. I'm working on my drawing skills.. )
