WIP Preview for June
Added 2020-05-30 03:38:46 +0000 UTCWell, I have a busy weekend ahead of me and a lot of stuff to get finished... but there is enough here to give you a basic idea of where things are headed. Also I have a list of items for a poll, I'm planning on asking everyone to vote on 3 items. Take a look at it and add anything else you want through the comments. I had a couple nice road related ideas that I have left off till I see what ends up being made on the kickstarter campaign.
Clay tile roofs are coming, I think three will come out in june. Now that the base asset is developed I can do steep ones as well. I have concepts set up for 3 more roofs after the terra cotta.
Prison Cells for Barracks. A couple corners you can swap in on the first floor of the barracks. They can be cells or storage closets I think. you will be able to pop in other doors if you want.
Short Palisade wall. I think this is going to come out well. 2 walls, 1 corner, 1 gate. I still need to load up the palisade and make sure it can come off the corner towers of the larger palisade.
Horse Carvings for the Palisade. There isn't much to go on for this and horses have a lot of shapes that don't lend themselves to a traditional primitive totem. This is sort of where I'm headed. I did an upright head with a unicorn version....yeah... I'm mostly into mad max and orcs so I'm really out of my wheel house on figuring out if this is anything people would be into. I'm open to feedback on it. meh, got to try new things.
Doors. I did a couple decorative doors and tried a new basic door with some symbols punched in. there will be sizes for both types of doors I use on the buildings
Not Shown on images for June
Windows. working on some shutters open/close and a banner hanging window.
Palisade. Making a smaller wall section that is the size of the gate so people can make a closed square.
Palisade. Made a glue on back beam so people can have the large palisade walls without the walkway.
road ramps. putting in a couple road ramps off the kickstarter for people who don't have roads to attach to gate.
Okay now the list of stuff for the poll so far.
Ruins, smaller scatter terrain
Ruins, Building or tower shells
Ruins, Mausoleum graveyard (Large Item)
kitchen for pallisade ( seperate building)
chapel for palisade (seperate building)
Bedrooms for 2nd story of barracks

Comments
Thanks Ken! a few of these I acctually have half made for the next kickstarter but many of them are new ideas. I'll do a second poll for store fronts in a week or so, I've been given too many Ideas to fit on one!
2020-06-03 14:19:45 +0000 UTCKen thanks a ton for all the suggestions, I appreciate all the thoughtfulness.:)
2020-06-03 14:17:01 +0000 UTCVarious renditions of stoneworked, brickwork, Tudor, (just Wattle & Daub and Wattle & Daub with half stone) , wood sided, clapboard sided, adobe and log cabin style buildings. i.e. a 5x5 building reproduced in each style, but with your method of pegs floors and roofs could be interchanged with different styles. Just release one rendition each month like a series. Each style lends themselves to a locale or even a class variation of a building within a city. On a different note, an interesting variation that I have not seen..a standard wooden house, slightly crooked, maybe partially, falling over, but braced to avoid the further deterioration of the structure (not a major failure of the builder, but a noticeable one just the same) I enjoy your renditions and look forward to seeing where you will be in your catalogue in a year from now...just don't burn out, these are all just suggestions.

2020-05-31 05:44:45 +0000 UTCAwesome! Interesting connection to Dwarf forts. I agree, it's a big project. Would love to get one on the table for Blood & Plunder. I think a lot of pirate/colonial era models could be useful for other genres as well.
2020-05-31 01:51:57 +0000 UTCForgot: armoury for belting out the paladins armour during downtime lol

2020-05-30 22:50:15 +0000 UTCThanks for the ideas , I'll get those in:)
2020-05-30 22:48:36 +0000 UTCHorse trader, farrier, cooper, mason, any type of Smith, for store fronts, plus any food vendor slash general store, bookseller, magic items shop. I love the idea of goblin villages..

2020-05-30 22:24:03 +0000 UTCYeah, I actually visited one last year down in alabama that got used up to WWII by the coast guard, fort morgan I think. I guess they had those all over from early 17 century on up. I thought it seemed like what a dwarf fort might be based on. It was cooler than I expected. It could be something for split versions versions. I'm gonna think on that one, it would have to be a big one.
2020-05-30 22:17:27 +0000 UTCThat will be on there, If you have ideas about specific stores please share, thanks!
2020-05-30 22:04:21 +0000 UTCSome store fronts would be a nice addition
2020-05-30 21:48:51 +0000 UTCCoastal cannon battery type star forts :-)

2020-05-30 19:12:35 +0000 UTCYou mean the costal canon battery type star forts or more inland Alamo type stuff.?
2020-05-30 19:10:09 +0000 UTCmaybe i'll split that into human and orc variants then.

2020-05-30 17:57:40 +0000 UTCNot enough siege engines out there, would definitely get my vote.
