Looking pretty good.  I'm digging the circular shape of the Forge.

I do like that. Very shiny stuff.

Actually, just a little (not entirely necessary) advice, I'd have put a little further highlighting on the sharper edges of the stone and walls, to create a more windweathered look.

Thank you for the kind words. As I commonly do, the second I thought 'well, this looks about done' a thought festered which now forced me to redo the whole thing:

The rocks got in the way. Banners = rank 2, tower = rank 3. 

 

I am aware that some parts look low-res, this is intentional. I decreased texture sizes so that my work will look more at home once it's in-game.

A work in progress of the new Troll Lair. Was going for a crude, orcish adaptation of the raptor cage from JP1, ended up with something looking like a Stone Age parthenon. 

 

I like it though. Now to add some rank objects + clutter.

Ahhh yes it does look a bit clean at the moment. I guess a bit of TPW leaked into SaF. ;p

I think so too. Only realized it once I'd rendered it.

I don't really like this one at the moment. But if it's not finished how about making it look more scruffy or uneven in some places ?

Oh I might make it a little more dishevelled but not really. I don't want to portray my orcs as idiots who can't put a proper structure together.

Yeah, of course. Orcs have always had such elegant architectures.

It just need a bit more grime and miscellaneous substances on it.

Maybe having crude Orc writing over it carved into the wood?

Well, according to the hero list I've written, he's unlocked through the Drums in the Deep spellbook power and is a powerful melee hero whose thrust could skewer wild boars.
