Description
Final version here: Nagoya CastleI wanted to make an update on the progress of Honmaru Palace, but I'm not quite ready to yet, so here's a little preview of it. This is the south east part of the walls, and the first of three turrets I'll need to sprite. For the moat I originally just used a standard water tile, but I really wanted something different, so came up with this transparent/reflective water. I've purposefully not showed much of it off yet, but what do you think?

It looks extremely well done I love the detail in the building itself as well as the reflection in the water

Thanks so much! You wouldn't believe how hard the water was.. xD

The roof looks so natural. The way the pattern is done, with the shading and all, is incredible. It feels really complete.

Thank you! The roofs are the hardest part by far to get right, due to it all being black with black outlines. I probably spend 90% of the time on a building just on the roof xD

Thanks a lot! I'm thinking of making a tutorial on how to do this kind of water.

Very nice. I really like the building and the angles used for the ground on the side of the building.

Thank you. The map is mostly flat so I tried to make the parts that are tiered look as interesting as possible.

Oh wow that water looks pretty cool! As far as the building itself, it looks similar enough to the rest of the designs you showed. I have no other criticisms, well none really. Very nice looking place!

Thank you! I did the water with a few different effects on PhotoShop, but luckily even though it isn't pixel art it still fits in. The turret was actually really simple compared to the other buildings, since it's just plain white walls. The challenging part will be making the other two turrets look interesting when they're all going to be the same size.
The whole area when it's finished is going to be over 2000 pixels square so the next update will probably be in a few months.. xD
