I decided the best way to get my ideas onto paper, was to focus on each building individually to make it as imaginative as possible and give it my time. The village will also benefit from this way of construction, been as I want every building to be unique, only fitting together through the use of bridges, stairs, alleyways etc. The whole feel is very higgledy-piggledy and bodged together.
First off, I have my initial idea for the cauldron shop. I took the theme from the circularity of a cauldron, and after a bit of doodling it took the form of an old brick kiln! To give it some character I curved the lines, and with the addition of the smoking chimneys the building is beginning to feel like its coming to life.
Lanterns are a big part of my design, as they will be the main light source in my piece, I need to make sure they illuminate the focal points of the design whilst complimenting the environment as a whole.
I have added features that can be added through the use of textures. The blast in the roof is obviously an old potion brewing disaster; these little features will hopefully add some personality to my ideas.
PS: Sorry for the quality...
