Wolfdell Village 4E WIP

[Sigurd]

Yea, I'm with Ravells. You work with enough computer art and it all begins to look the same - even the good stuff.

Makes you appreciate pencil work and traditional mediums. Especially pencil, in my case personally, because its so expressive.

Well here's another update to the town of Wolfdell and the aforementioned unnamed inn of a dragons last rest...

That's looking really good. Lucky players.

Another small update... don't like the grass fill... and still trying to get some tree symbols right.... illustrator has somewhat of a learning curve... and i'm still learning soo... bare with me

[Sigurd]

Is this the whole village or a small slice?

save for a few outlying farms... yes... I was planning on adding maybe a few other buildings...

But it does seem that it should be bigger, huh? ... i've been thinking that for a while now...

Does it need to be? A village needs a smithy, a temple, a shop, a tavern/inn, and maybe a few residences-- and some of those things could be combined for a very small village.

Unless you were aiming bigger, this looks plenty large for a small village.

I was asking an honest question - not trying to sway you either way.

It can be much clearer if you omit buildings etc... that aren't pertinent or scale your village to your needs. Bravo. I'm just on a self imposed realism kick.

I know ya were sigurd... and I was already struggling with perhaps starting over with a bigger village and a smaller scale... but see.. this is one of my hang ups.. lol... I always wanna make things bigger and better and then before I know it I've got some monster on my hand that has way too many elements and plots and this and that and I'm over here putting in things that the PC's will probably never even see or know about .. etc etc...

When he posted that question it just suddenly snapped me back to where I needed to be to get this thing focused and finished... and I was really estatic about it as well... lol

so no worries brother you was just asking a simple question and I was giving you my honest answer at the time.... I was thinking of making it bigger

Nice work. I can't wait to see the finished map. As for the Inn's name, what about...

Dragon's Repose Inn
Dragonskull Inn (simple but to the point)
Draconian Tavern
Inn of the Resting Dragon/Drakon/Draconian

EDIT: Ignore my name suggestions. I missed your name for the Inn. Nice touch.
