    Kinda hard to spot, blends into the trees, needs something to make it stick out just a bit more...maybe a lighter color or some clouds or lightning or something. Unless it's meant to be subtle, then it's perfect

    Hi Ascension - great idea with the clouds. It is however meant to be subtle as well. I want readers to look at it and say, "Hey that's not labelled. I wonder what that is."

    Gotcha, it's perfect then. I'd expect nothing less from Ramah.

    I was actually kinda worried I hadn't made it subtle enough. The original request was for a "tall, evil looking tower" but the tower I ended up drawing was quite plain looking. It needed the glow to give it some character but I wondered if it might be better to just drop the glow and go with more spikes and make it darker. It might be that I'll come back to this before it's done. We shall see.

    I couldn't even tell it was a tower.

    Well, no matter what it looks like, a tall pointy object with a long pointy shadow is most likely a tower. I agree that the green glow makes it look evil. Green glows usually aren't very nice things

    Adventurer 1: "I know let's go to that tower with the greeny glow!"
    Adventurer 2: "Erm that looks evil."
    Adventurer 1: "Nah don't be a chicken, it's a tower located in a thick dense forest, overshadowed by a mountain range called the Blackshroud Mountains, the air is unnaturally cold and where no animals tread, how bad could it be?"
