    Wip October Entry: Khuldas

    This is the first time I've entered one of the challenges... The competition seems awfully fierce!

    This map gives you a peek at the quiet little town of Khuldas, where most of the people round about raise sheep or dye wool. Nothing fancy going on in this neck of the woods, and that's the way folks like it!

    Woo-hoo, another new entry!

    Great first entry, my only nit-picking would be that I wish it were bigger/higher res so you could zoom in on the details.

    Cool. I like how your's appears to have the smallest land scale of all current entries.

    Excellent. I love the thatch roofs and the pasture is a terrific feature.

    Thank you, folks!

    I've made a few tweaks -- the market, shadows, and added a water trough for the poor wee sheep, some chickens and a dog. I also made it a smidgen bigger -- In an Idiot Moment, I started working right on the geo.jpg, which was not optimal. Oops! I think, if no one has any suggestions for improvement, this will probably be my final.

    (And it's a sheep pen, not a pasture! )
