    Default (WIP) Arvellon, capital of Eowyl Viceroyalty

    Hello folks, I'm about to start a big project and I will post here my work.
    Besides the Town of Windfoort, I never depicted a "big" city, and now I wanna try, even if I'm not sure on which style I want to achieve, I think then I'll try a firs approach in Black and white then I'll go for colors.
    Anyway here is the first sketch:

    That's a great shape (as in an interesting one), and a well planned layout.

    Looking forward to seeing the progress

    Thank you Mouse, here's another sketch with inner layout idea. Also I reworked the shape and walls a bit.

    Good road system. I like the curved nature of the ones in the Medium Wealth Gnomes area. Too many cities have nothing but dead straight roads, but this one has a nice mix of straight and curved

    It's nice so far. As Mouse said, I like the road system, it looks very organic and natural. The canals are cool too. I loved your Windfoort map and I can't wait to see this one develop!

    p.s. The two donut shaped hills are like a "hill-house" of halfling clans

    You're going fast!
    Those buildings look fabulous. I love the grass too. Can't wait to see colour!
