I've loved the new Isometric Cities style since it first launched, but this is the first chance I've had to build something in it for a campaign. Here is Merrivale-on-Deas, a small farming village which recently started aspiring to bigger things. Once merely a revenue stream for the better-known township of Deascroft, Merrivale in the last few years has boomed, since the opening of its own grain exchange.
The owner of the exchange, Vannin Muirlock, has done very well out of this, buying up the old Village Park and turning it into a private estate, and establishing a new upstream docks. This has taken a lot of business from the old Millerwharf and, new-found prosperity or no, some of the villagers aren't too fond of their new benefactor...
and 4 others.

And, because the heroes need places to go to as well as somewhere to come from, I tried my hand at a Spectrum Overland map of the surrounding area at local scale (25mi across):
Excellent first SS6 map.
I especially like your use of terrain textures and roof colours.
Looks great while being rather subtle.
Thanks! Here's hoping the players like it. I just finished a mini-gazetteer for them (it's a new campaign) that ran to a few thousand words.
