At my request, my lead artist and I tried to brighten the entire fort up - make it healthier and use newer wood and brighten the contrast. However, we'd done a LOT of that type of work prior to getting to this point, and the problems have a lot to do with the dirt tile everything rests on. For a brown dirt, and then a darker richer "wall" edging, the ground floor of the buildings has to be light again for contrast... and now the dirt and interior floors look too similar. We'll be doing a lot of testing, but here's our "second-phase" attempt at fixing this.

Do you guys think its better or worse? I specifically didn't like the rotting texture for the keep interior.
