[SHOWOFF] WIP Capital City

So, I hope you are all guess what about is this topic. Lordaeron, I'm absolutely sure that it is not first topic about this place in this forum, but I believe that mine version is worth to be here too.
My goal was to make Lordaeron in the style of "old days", when it was a capital of huge kingdom. I inspired from wc3 cinematics and fan arts, but it was not all where I took inspiration from. I always been amazed by old works of modcraft's level designers. Eluowind, SinFranc's works and many other things were as a monument in modding for me. So, you here to decide if I caught that spirit of those works and enjoy the screens!

In current time most of the level design work is done. Also there is a core mod done special for this place: Housing system.
I'll be glad to hear some critics and advices.  :)

Little update! Fixed up some things in level design (I think that I did Trade Square too quickly); links should work properly now ;)

Awesome! :D

But shouldn't the water be more blue, instead of... cyan? Perhaps it's a limitation as I realize that's originally from the green slob.

I see that you're covering up the cracks/holes with branches and that's fine. I completely forgot about it until I started to look for them... :lol: That's good: it means you're doing a great job!

But if memory serves, then several buildings are wrecked. How will you deal with them?


Also, I'm going to have a quick glance at the Arthas novel to see if anything specific is mentioned in there. I don't think they described the city, though - but who knows?

Update 1st post once more. Eventually added a skybox (I hope it looks ok) did some fixes in water color, added a lot of details around the city.

It looks very great with that skybox in my opinion ! The only thing I could say is that It needs another road texture (like one with more grass, or more broken) to make it look less repetitive.
 
 I would enjoy playing in that kind of city.  :D

All, the magical throne room... :D

I'd suggest adding blue cloaks to the guards to mirror the ones in the Warcraft 3 cinematics.


But my favorite picture has to be this one: http://i.imgur.com/xA6kSWl.jpg
Are those statues from Silvermoon? They fit perfectly!

Updated 1st post with new pics. I hope you like it.
Thank you all, I pretty sure about make new road texture, but before that I have to finish few other things. The same thing about guards (that one you can see on screenshot is just a random npc with "Menethil" or "Lordaeron" in his name) :D
