Old night time palette.  

 

New night time palette.

[bigjoe]

The brownish color looks just a touch out of place in the new night time palette. I mean, it makes the house and the dirt look excellent. Not so much the hedges and trees though. If they could somehow be combined.

 

 

Too generic?

[Shane]

Great stuff justin and BigJoe!

Updates. This is an aesthetic test shot, I am not building the actual first dungeon yet-

 

Oh, did I happen to mention the tree dungeon has been scrapped? I have reasons, but I'm too lazy to explain these reasons, but hopefully you will enjoy the replacement dungeon, but it will be awhile until I develop the actual thing.

Really nice! I see plenty of improvements here and it seems much better than before. Great job!

[Shane]

Thank you Eddy.

Small update. Hopefully this makes the village have a bit more "under construction" kind of feel . Another small tip, this is a village you'll keep visiting after you beat each one of the three first dungeons and a final visit will be made after a certain challenge is made...

well, i couldn't figure out a nice way to recolour the "hedges".  so i drew my own.  i was picturing them as moss covered walls.

 

here's the latest version:

 

 

and here's the tiles.

 

 

 

@shane, i really like that new doorway with the owls.  i also liked those flowers/plants in the water in the first version, and kinda sad to see them go...

Love the new changes except for the doorways, I actually preferred the circular ones. The owl sections are cool though, they'd look really good in a wooden/tree dungeon actually!

Really nice vibe and feel of the screen going on here. Great work on the hedges, fits in 100% with the Firebird set, should post them in the thread and get them put in the set!

@Demonlink Nice stuff going on there. I can also see that "under construction" look that you mentioned, so great job on that!
 

@justin Loving the new changes and those hedges look much better!

Due to a bit of tight restrictions and "cramped" screen designing, I redid the Entry for the Forgotten Ruins Dungeon. I think this looks better than my previous attempt. (BTW, Forgotten Ruins and Novus Village Cutscene are finished!)

[Shane]

Yes! That looks a lot better. 

 

My only suggestion is to remove the pillars in the first shot. They don't look bad, but they kinda do feel a bit out of place. Otherwise again, these are your best screens yet IMO.

[Eddy]

Truly amazing work Demonlink, I love what you got going and those screens have a perfect atmosphere. Looking at them really wants me to go in and adventure through them! Great job.

[Jared]

I haven't touched Pure Remembrance in so long.

 

 

It's supposed to be a farm/ranch type of thing, minus the animals.

Removed* Thanks for the suggestion Shane!

Oh, and the dungeon itself will be better! :O Thank you so much!

Looks nice Jared! The only suggestion I'd add is to play with the palette, as I think that's one of the default ones... right? Other than that, looks perfect!

 

I myself have another goodie:

 

I'm not quite sure what to make this region like. It's located north of the Sacred Woods, but south to another region where a lot of Water is planned to be added, like Jared's Hylian Falls from RotP. Hmmm, ideas/opinions/critics?

[Shane]

Looks good Jared! Looks like it could be a path leading to the ranch. I agree about the palette though, it could use more personality, but it's fine regardless.

It looks great! Maybe this area could be like a bunch of springs? If the northern area features waterfalls (moving, active water), the lower area should feature water itself (still, calm)... Just a thought!
