New Schley city style for annual?

LadieStorm · August 2016

Mike Schley's posted an absolutely beautiful town map yesterday, in the Cartographer's Guild, that took my breath away. It made me wonder if we would be seeing a new city/town annual from him any time soon.

Have I possibly stumbled across something in the works( I hope)? After all, we have his overland style,and we have the dungeons if Schley... It just seems appropriate to have the full collection!

Is this something we might be seeing soon? If not, can it be?

Being checking it... it´s fantastic as all his work, but being a drawn picture, i see quite difficult to recreate the way CC3 is built. Who knows, maybe i´m wrong, but looks a difficult job to recreate for CC3.

You mean this one, right?

Yes, that's the one I'm talking about. And I know producing all of his detailed linework would be quite difficult... but I'm talking about the over all style... like his overland style, or his dungeon style that we already have.

If they did make a Mike Schley city style it would not look like that. I've watched the interview with mike and he said he had to come up with a different style of art for the Profantasy software than the kind he normally uses, because he didn't want other people recreating the style he has worked on so long to perfect. So instead, he came out with a style that is similar but not exactly the same. If he does anything for City Designer, I'm sure it will not be the exact same artwork you see in that piece.

That being said, he has mentioned that he has something in the works but cannot talk about it so I am hoping that it is for City Designer and done in the same style that he has done for both DD3 and CC3+. I guess we'll see when it is ready to go. I'm certainly excitedly waiting on it!
