I like the style of the graphics :-)

Made a suggestion about how the clouds could look.

Thanks for the compliments on the style!

Sometimes we forgot the wall is thick. I think adding an inner arc can add some depth to the window (the widht of the window in my picture is far too wide, the perspective is somewhat forced and the colour choiche for the inner part is debatable, but I think that way is easier to see what my words are not able to explain).

Thanks. I'm going to leave the building for now. I'm going to draw some practice buildings before returning to this background. The wall thickness comment is a really good point!

-tried to give volume and elasticity to the balloon
-moved the back side up and added fixtures

I tend to draw my lines too straight, your balloon edit really helps. I shows I can maintain a simple clean style, without making all lines straight and boring.
I just noticed the back fixtures were missing, I hoped nobody had seen it.  ;D

Nice, mind if I snatch them?


Current WIP version:


I'm going to let this one 'rest' for a while. I have a certain style in mind for the buildings in my game, and I want to practice that style first, before finishing this one. All your comments were very helpful, thanks a lot!

To do (but later  ;):
- Building
- Making the cliff and ground more interesting

Haha! Well my input helped, even if it was for an entirely different set of reasons! Yes, its very clear now that there is no water there under the boa.. airship!

I like the balloon edit KhrisMUC did!

One last thing then.. what stops the airship from floating away? Maybe you have that in mind already, but figured it's worth asking just incase!  :)

Argh, I was planning to draw some lines tieing the boat to the shore/cliff, but I somehow forgot it every edit.  ::)

I'm sure there's a HUGE docking clamp right below the edge of the cliff ;)

when you animate the ship you should make an animation that would make the ship move as if it was blown away but the anchor or whatever holds it back..
Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)
