[Mor's End Discussion] Time to open shop!

[Conaill]

Kinda like this? I still like the design with the larger tree better.

 

[GladiusNP]

Hmm... I'd prefer to have the cypress in the middle if it's going to be on the shield. On the side looks sort of unbalanced. Just a thought.

 

[Conaill]

That's what I thought, and why I went with the tree-in-the-middle version to begin with.

 

[GladiusNP]

Well you and I are definitely in agreement - I suppose we'll have to wait for the others to post why it should be on the side.

 

[Lalato]

Please pardon the horribly bad art... I'm not anything close to a graphics artist... and I know nothing of the history of heraldry.

Now that all of the disclaimers have been made... here you go... The only thing missing is the sapphires.

Is that a leaf of the Cypress tree in the middle? I still favor the simpler-to-draw versions above. Not so much for our benefit, but for the benefit of all those low payed seamstresses that have to crank out the patches for the Guard and the Watch (not to mention the militia, or even the muster!). That's also why I would prefer a ram's head in profile: much easier to draw.

 

[Lalato]

I'll have to respectfully disagree. The seamstresses get paid to sew. I'm not the least bit concerned how difficult it is for them to sew the patch. I'm much more concerned about how good the final product looks.

(That, of course, is not to say that my drawing actually looks good. I'm hoping someone will go off and actually make it look decent.)

Hey... I already said I couldn't draw... what more do you want from me?

I'll leave it to you guys to decide... work is swamping me at the moment.

Perhaps lets target a date where we can 'close' the business of the present threads and move on to other matters. The NPC and shops thread can remain open, but military affairs, basic geography (as in Enheim), history and such can be closed. How does May 1 sound?

After that we'll examine what we're missing and work on those. eg: festivals, the yearly cycle and its effects, detailing specific areas in Mor's End etc.

Sounds good to me, If somebody hasn't opened up a monsters and adventures thread I'll open one up May 1st, we haven't gotten a minister for that yet either. MIlitary is about nailed down, just a little detail work to do and it's finished.
