October Challenge WIP

Theschabi

So I finally found thhe time to start on my part of the october challenge.

I am doing area 20 using this as my referece:

After starting in different styles about ten times I decided to use the John Speed City Style from the 2007 annual.

I kin dof forgot, that I wanted to make this a WIP threat, so I came quite far before remembering to put it here, but done it is not yet.

Nice work. I've always liked the John Speed style.

I adjusted the positions of the houses a litte and worked on the details. Should there be more named houses?

I love how you have put the Thieves Guild and the Church of Secrets either side of the Neighbourhood Watch. Don't they know?

Shades of Terry Pratchett there I think ;)

Places only have names if we chose to name them, so it's entirely up to you.

In my mind I had this small story, where the Neighborhood Watch was founded as a reaction to the church of secrets. They have no idea, that they aber right beside the Thieves Guild. Depending on which thief is asked, this either means the thieves are exceptionally good, or the watch is exceprionally bad. In thurth it most likely means the thieves guild is very good in determining which leader of the watch needs to be bribed the most. I have been listening to some Terry Pratchet books though...

Made some tiny adjustments and modified the church and the guild to look more unique. I think it is done.

It looks terrific :)

Don't forget to add it to the main sticky thread.

Thanks.

And thank you for reminding me about the sticky!

The Thieves' Guild building wouldn't be labelled as such on any "official" map so it must have a cover identity for public consumption. Perhaps the "Mendicant's Guild" which would fit well on "Beggar's Lane". This would explain why it was frequented by certain disreputable looking characters. ?
