Hello everyone,
Time, at long last, for a news update I think. This time I’ve got a number of images to show, both of practical elements – such as the following banners – and of the results of my height-mapping.
To start off: here are a couple of shots of the mountain range known to the speakers of the Ilsamiren language as Or Hlan Kires – The Final Wall. This is the range which separates the Eastern lands of the Betrayers from the green fields of the Descendants of the Sun, the Western Kingdom.
This first image shows the dwindling eastern extreme of the Final Wall as it descends to the Open Pass.
This image shows one of the roads which link the Western Capital, Cerinan, with the smaller farmsteads and trading posts of the kingdom.
The next images show a piece of practical progress – the implementation of banner colours and symbols into the strategic map. These symbols were designed from my written descriptions by NodachiSam.
The banner shown above belongs to the Ilsamiri and is based on the Ilsamiren letter “D”, which stands for Darineth, their capital city.
This image shows the Sun-flare banner of the Western Kingdom, flown from the city of Varas Thenor, or Forest Gate.
That’s all for now, but hopefully it shows that work is still being done. Now that I’m on holidays again I should be able to finish off the UI, or at least get it to a workable point. There should be a model (or two) to show off in the near future, but don’t hold your breath – I’m not :smile: .
Thanks for reading,
Yours,
Ilsamir Lord
