October 2008 Entry: Something Swampish this way comes
Well, I am wading into this one earlier than last time. The idea I had was making this a swamp/marsh area where most of the commerce and daily life takes place on planking that one would find in a warf. The areas had no growth plan so as people added onto the walkway/pier system the settlement haphazardly grew. It will be fun for me (and I hope all who are watching) to see this as it progresses.
Anyway... here we go again.

What I have done so far. I really need to smurf out a good way of getting the water to look correct.

I think the water looks good, I'm guessing its kind of slow moving?

SG, the water is basically stagnant. the problem is that is seems a bit light in color... it needs something...

tweaked the water... better? worse?
I think it is better becaus ethe water is more even in color and a bit more foreboding in look

I like the original a bit more. I think my big thing with the water is the white haze which to me seems more like a bit of fog and that does not blend in my brain very well with this type of swamp, at least not with the clearly defined wooden structures....
