House designs
 

I would like to see a few other ideas for Forest house designs, that do not involve defilling the trees as such. If I might make a suggestion this or something similiar to it would be more appropriate.

Please keep in mind this is mostly a beta of what the end product should be, unless everyone agree's that it looks good enough I would finish atleast a few of the buildings of similiar design.

Hmm, I like the old houses, however you are right in that they shouldnt be defilled in such a manor. In my honest opinion, this image just doesnt... seem right. It looks like a Pirate house with a different roof plopped on :) I like the top part, just not the bottom, since its used in Pirate houses.
Then agian, what do I know, Im not very good at designing gfx so I dont know. :)

I would agree, but for demonstration of what I had in mind for an outcome, it was easier to display the idea with current houses in a different shade. As much as some people think, I have disagreements with using so much wood. Stone is a very nice look when used correctly.

Might look cool with the forest emblem (tree I think) somewhere on there, blended in maybe on both sides of the roof? Or on a sign? idk

I thought all the kingdoms had different style houses?

Interesting, however even the Forest symbols are in dire need of being updated. It is also true each kingdom has its own house styles, just Forest is rather out dated and we wish to update just about everything.

** Ok I have touched up the beta somemore and have this currently. The wooden structure is redone some to look more like the pirate base that was originally used, also the windows have been fixed up some. If Forest had an emblem or even better, a houseicon that could be added just above the door.

I like the first Forest house you posted and it looks much better than the old Forest houses.

Okay, it did not take long but I talked to a few people and they like the tanish colour better then the white. So I have put this together.

Other suggestions were to add moss to some of the rocks on a diffrent version or to add a symbol on it. But then theres the actual house icon's that can be added onto the houses.

Its cool, alot better than the old-clichee like treehouses.

Yea? Well a few people on Debug talked me into un "pixelating" it.
basically taking out many of the bad dark outlines under the roof area.

The next step I think is to make leaf shapped tiles or even somewhat like triangle shaped roof tiles.
**I suppose for now we should perhaps call this particular one something like "houses_forest2"

You blured it too much imo, the stones just dont like good when they are blurred up. But I like the house design itself :]

Ninja Edit -> See attachment. I just blured the old one a bit, but it looks a little better imo ;o

That big-ass patch of beige really makes me wish you could put signs up on your shops.

I can undo the stones easily, and I could get some sort of Forest symbol on the house

Looks very nice Dayaa, You always did great work =D. keep it up.

updated one, forgot to post if after everyones suggestions.

This should be the one.

I like them both :D they look more appeasing and easy to accede with :D
