April Inn/Lodge/Tavern WIP

[KevinTreaccar]

Got my new direction while watching some Hayao Miyazaki this morning. Floating cabins provide some added security for our wizard, magical elf mentor and unicorn.

Building 1 of my inn...

Going to need my floating cabins behind it, too, though.

Of course, maybe I also need to include whatever the floating cabins anchor to when they're not in the sky...

[KevinTreaccar]

Got most of the early inking done before work this morning. Racing to get this done by Friday now.

Thoughts? Concerns?

Thank you

More progress this morning before I had to get the kids up.

@Kevintreaccar Hiya Kevin. Will the Cloud 9 inn be on a cloud rather than on the floor? or have some clouds around the others? It could have some elements that show bliss or happiness to play on the saying 'on cloud nine'. Perhaps the round window could have a smiley face.

[KevinTreaccar]

@lizardillo The check-in cabin that’s front and center sits on a cliff edge. The nine cabins for rental stay on the ground until they’re being rented. At that point, they float into the sky.

I was trying to figure out how to show the magic of them floating and had been planning to use a glowing light, but I love your cloud idea!

I had already planned to add some clouds and birds for sky context, but magic clouds that float the cabins work well with a name I was wondering if I needed to change.

Thank you!

@lizardillo And I love your thought about a smile on the check-in buildings face. That’s definitely something I need to consider as I add final details to the cabins.

Honestly, with the deadline breathing down our necks now and working trying to grab hours outside of its 9-5, was just trying to get functional cabins in the air first.

[lizardillo]

@Kevintreaccar look forward to seeing the final piece

[KevinTreaccar]

More progress made last night and this morning.

Almost ready for you to float on into the Float On Inn.

[KevinTreaccar]

Think I’ve got this wrapped up and ready to post/submit unless anyone sees anything that needs fixing/adjusting.

Thank you for checking this thread out.

@Kevintreaccar I'm loving the name

[Jacy13]

@Kevintreaccar I like the concept! It's looking pretty cool

[KevinTreaccar]

@lizardillo Thank you! Glad you like it

[KevinTreaccar]

@Jacy13 Thank you!

Just entered the final version.
