[WIP] Greco-Roman Temple revisited: Dungeons of Schley style
I have a habit of showing my work-in-progress and then forgetting to post the final. So here it is with two different roof styles. (For comparison, you can see the version done in the Marine Dungeons style in my gallery.)
Oh, and here's the FCW if anyone is interested in using it.

[WIP] Greco-Roman Temple revisited: Dungeons of Schley style
Here are the new steps, each with their own sheet with a Glow (Outside) with a Strength of 12.5% and a Blur Radius of 2. I didn't add the Glow effect to the lowest step, thinking it would be flush with the plaza, but maybe I should add it. I first tried it was a stone fill that was one shade lighter than the plaza, but I think it looks better one shade darker.

[WIP] Greco-Roman Temple revisited: Dungeons of Schley style
Here's the inside of the temple. The floor uses white marble tiles that come from DD3, I believe.
The reflections, as with my original temple, are custom-made symbols that are meant to be reflections from the glow of mosaics made from luminescent crystals. I need to remember to remove them when I share the FCW.
The pillars use Mike Schley's ornate columns. Zoomed out, they look a almost "smudged," and the plain columns look sleeker. But zoomed in, the details of the columns' base is nice, and probably more like what a fancy temple would have.

[WIP] The Sewers of Elmsbrook Township
(I just noticed that this looks vaguely like the Starship Enterprise.)
In Level 5, purified water from Level 4 hits at a high spot that slopes both to the west and to the east. Water that flows to the west will reach the end of the canal and be deposited into water pipes that take it out to sea. Water that flows east will end up in a supersized drainage canal to help carry refuse from the bottom of the Great Maw.
The Great Maw ends at this level. All manner of waste digestible by the Black Pudding is tossed in here, including unusable metal and wooden objects, as well as any bones picked clean by the Gelatinous Cubes in Level 3. Here, the Black Pudding is munching on a great bell that has been thrown away, as well as some broken furniture. (Yeah, townfolk would probably chop up the broken furniture for firewood, but I wanted to show the Pudding eating metal and wood.) Left untouched for daring adventurers: a ceramic urn and a stone statue that are indigestible, along with some glass bottles. There’s also a staff, book, and scroll case that should be edible…unless they’re magical.
An extra large canal brings any remaining wastewater to the sea. Here, a Voracious Sullage has stretched itself across the canal, holding on to two side pillars as it scoops up anything edible remaining in the water.
A portion of the Great Maw’s wall has broken down, revealing a few caverns that are home to a strange tentacle aberration.
If adventurers survive the Black Pudding, the tentacle aberration, and the carnivorous plants down the passageway, they might find an escape route through the southern passage. But they might not be home free: something got the last adventurers who rested here (though that something might have been carbon monoxide poisoning if they lit a campfire in this poorly ventilated space).
