    Terra School: Glacial Mechanics

    Heya, I figured my next post would be about glaciers and how they work and some of the unique forms they leave behind! Here we go, A glacier is a large dense mass of ice that is *always moving*. Whether they are descending the mountain due to gravity acting on their own weight, or melting and...

    Approved Project Application: Antlers

    Right on the money, Star. Varner takes inspiration primarily from villages and towns in East Anglia, with some scattered French elements here and there. French and German elements are primarily seen in the castle, the septry, Belleglen and a few landmark buildings here and there.

    Withdrawn Project Application: House Slate of Blackpool

    Hi Finn, just a few things from me! Firstly, the town looks quite large on your map. I’m not sure if it’s the scaling of it, but I’d be careful not to make it too large or too urban. Secondly, while the Slates are influenced by house Manderly, it’s important to note that the Northmen in general...

    The fields are reasonably sized imo. I live in an area with a lot of fields and I can vouch for their vastness. Most likely fields are smaller in Duskendale in order to maximize space for a city sprawl. Field size isn’t really something that is important when it comes to cohesion, realistically...

    Massey's Hook sub-region - Discussion Thread

    I'd remove Holm Oaks, they are a primarily mediterranean species. You oaks should be on the small side, and really only hardy variations of white oak can survive well enough near saltwater. I'd also remove willows, as they're more found around freshwater. The rest seem okay to me, but I'm no...

    Completed Probation: Deiniol

    Checked through all these houses, they are more than satisfactory. We are also coming to the end of your probation period, so I will explain a bit more on the 25th. Overall, you've produced great work throughout your probation, so I don't anticipate any problems with promoting you.

    Withdrawn Project Application: House Norcross by Opaco

    Bringing up Highgarden is moot, as it is the most lavish castle in Westeros and is stylistically meant to stand out as having larger, more palatial structures. The same is also true for the Red Keep. Norcross, on the other hand, is not nearly at the same level of economic prosperity, and while...

    Withdrawn Project Application: House Norcross by Opaco

    To be fair, Newcastle is based heavily of Chateau Pierrefonds, which is consistent with the style of much of the Mander river catchment. As I understand it, Dunstonbury came first, and when the Manderlys went north they replicated it in White Harbor. So you wouldn't really be deviating too much...

    Completed Application Thread: House Varner Redo by Jakethesnake

    I've gone through and implemented most of the feedback here. My only thing about the building in Kerseyford is it's intended to stand out as a more industrial building against the backdrop of the idyllic village. Also I did delete melons in a couple places where I addressed the feedback, but...

    Withdrawn Project Application: House Norcross by Opaco

    Just my little two cents here, I’d be careful about the size of the castle still, because you’re going to be putting a large structure on a cliff. The trouble being this could affect the proportions of the area and make the cliff look tiny/castle look huge. Think Bandallon for scaling, it...

    Approved Project Application: House Crayne by Zsomiking & AlexIsTragic

    Hmmm, I understand what you're going for I think, but the height of the dividing ridge is wayyy too low for the surrounding terrain, and I think it honestly makes more sense to keep the valley going one direction, instead of separating it into watersheds.

    Approved Project Application: House Crayne by Zsomiking & AlexIsTragic

    Heya, Aeks has asked us editors to try and pitch in with Crayne wherever possible, and while I can't provide direct instruction for the time being, I figured I could at the very least give my thoughts on the hydrology of the valley. So for Crayne, my thoughts are have the area that's being...
