  • Winter Village style development (March 2022 CA issue)

    Sadly, this style won't help whatsmyusename much either, since it is a city style, not a dungeon style. City symbols are not as detailed as dungeon symbols, so would probably be found inadequate for purpose.

    I think whatsmyusename is perhaps unaware of the huge range of fills and symbols available through the third party packs, and that these can be imported quite easily and used in CC3.

    EDIT: I have joined Reddit in order to be able to answer the question...

    I've never heard of snow guards.

    Maybe that's because I live in an area that experienced 6 inches of snow just the once in the 55 years of my life - back when I was 7 yrs old.

    Thanks Jim :)

    This won't be part of the style because there are a few things that need far more time than is available to sort out before March, but I'm also working on a night time theme that might appear in the more distant future.

  • Winter Village style development (March 2022 CA issue)

    Hi Everyone :)

    Profantasy have asked me to create a style called 'Winter Village' for this year's March issue in the Cartographer's Annual. It's based on the work I did for the Festive Winter Card Challenge, and is strongly linked to the Darklands City style I did for last year's annual. That means the buildings will be similar in nature to those of the DC style, though the textures and sheet setups are different.

    The problem with snow is that it is so very bright white that it seems impossible at first to make things work and look interesting. But at the same time snow is all kinds of interesting colours that are mostly tinged blue. It's taken a bit of time to get a full snowy rooftop together that looks good with the snowy background, but I think I'm there at last.

    This is the initial test building arranged as a circular array to test that the colours and shading work.

    Let me know what you think :)

  • more DD3 dungeon floor templates?

    If they are generally missing from the wider dungeon style selections (including third party fills) I will put them on the list for future dungeon style ideas.
