New dwarven door
Hi,
I wasn't satisfied with the dwarven-door.png. Here's a proposal for a substitute. There might be a minor problem that the new door is attached to mountain - I hope it doesn't confuse the terraintype that is underneath the door.
Judge yourself.

Feel free to PM me if you start a new terrain oriented thread. It's easy for me to miss them among all the other art threads.

I like it, but might it not look better on the actual mountain terrain, instead of the hill?

I think it looks better on hills : it makes it look bigger, more monumental. Maybe dwarves made the hill artificially bigger.

At second look, there is something that looks a little strange, but it might be done on purpose, which is that the two stones on the sides of the door aren't the same dimensions.

Hehe.. I was about to write just the same.Jetryl wrote:I think that's largely a problem of scale, e.g. something rather unavoidable.Woodwizzle wrote:These both look great and much better than the old ones. But the both kinda look like they are pasted on the side of a mountain, not like they are actually built into the mountain.
This particular image belongs somewhere between the terrain- and building scale. The line between those scales is very blur.
