      • taller dome entrance (4 to 5 triangles large)

      • the "tree fruits" should be a different color than the tree leafs

So what kind of features should the thing have? 🙂

  1. i guess it should be flying
  2. it should have a place to live - a cozy home to lay back and relax
  3. i guess to have some sort of magical place to study would be good too
  4. but the garden is a great idea too so they can grow food
  5. the sails could be balloons/sails but also solar panels - i dont know...
  6. maybe it is more than one ship, and those are connected with bridges - a ship city?
  7. also what if you want to move fast ...can it teleport? hyperjump? turn on a magical rocket booster?
  8. does it have a place for creatures to gather?
  9. does it need to be made from wood? or can it be a floating island in the shape of a ship (maybe even only a little bit? ...or if it has sails, maybe the entire island can move?
  10. ...is their magical flares, sparkles or auras or rainboas surrounding the ship to protect it?

There are multiple pinterest boards and maybe each picture stands out with a particular feature that makes it interesting and if some of those features repeat, we can maybe gather those into distinct "feature boards" ...where we could even add a specific picture tu multiple boards if it contains multiple features

In a way we could just go for an almight asgard castle in the sky for the gods style of island, but that wouldn't make it cute or approachable and friendly ... so thats bad.

but if it was just a little island for some friendly gnomes it doesnt feel very powerful either...
how to combine?

I really like your previous worklog and the pictures you selected and grouped a bit already.

i like the middle and upper right picture among your floating ships.

maybe cabins or inside could be shown only in the body of a rocky island - but what should be the setting? is it a magic rabbithole library maybe?

amongst the islands shown above i like the one with the many cloads the most, maybe sails and/or an engine or water/wind wheel could be added - of course things should be "sustainable", so ideally no coal or other kind of engines ...and the island is an island but at the same time also some sort of ship?
...that has bridges that can extend to dock onto other islands?
maybe it needs a teleporter? ...maybe we need to find more picture for different parts of the idea.


What do you think of an image collage?
Just to copy elements from different pictures into some sort of photo collage to extend a specific picture with some specific feature from other pictures?

so we need maybe a base picture that makes most sense and is most flexible to cover other aspects? :-)

It should cover the vibe of wizardamigos well or the purpose.
its open and inviting to everyone. its a safe zone, nothing can happen to you while you are around and are a wizard amigos.
everyone is friendly and supportive and curious to learn more about magic and use it in creative ways to make the universe a more friendly and fun place.

most wizards are nomad, so that home has to maybe be many or at least movable or it can change shapes or it is any imaginable home at once - so in the end just infrastructure for some sort of magical holo deck? ...in the context of playproject it tries to fit into that floating island world.

This looks great. I agree with the color (it is a bit dark, I was thinking we could try and use purple or any other color that works nice from the wizardamigos color pallette https://github.com/wizardamigos/assets/blob/main/Wizard_Amigos_-_Colour_Pallette_-_2022.pdf).

Regarding the library:
I was thinking to make this circular sitting in this style BUT I would leave a shelf area with books there (vertically positioned so we can fit many in different colors (wizardamigos color palette again) + a bit of plants around (maybe not as much as on the photo, but something, maybe on one side)

Some inspiration for the bookcase (integrated in this circular sitting area) - similar to how you have it now, but made of stone https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c6/85/1b/c6851b8447cee31923f812fc19e6c5ef.jpg

Looks nice. Can we try to move the library playground more to the front of the island and make it slightly bigger. Would also try to make the domes in the back bigger.

When you zoom in all the things looks very pretty but when we zoom out we can't see all the details so I am thinking how to make them more visible.

So let's try with resizing and moving the library more to the front.

And i am thinking, maybe to make this stone wall more intersting, maybe we could replace few of the stones with crystals (to get some loveliness and magic to the place...)

One more thing. Your stone wall is very correct, but in England they look more like this (pic is from my walk yesterday), so I wonder if we could also add a bit of this vibe to the wall. Basically it is not industrial bricks but stones which are carved by nature so they are not the same size. I can imagine this can be a bit tedious but i think it will give this genuine vibe 😊20220808_164315.jpg

@serapath reminded me you started to make a 3d model of a wizard once already. I was thinking we could put one (or more, we can see) wizard on the island as well.

One that would totally fit is the VR one, sitting, which could be in the middle of the library area.

Or we can add another one somewhere else.

I will attach all the artworks with wizards that we have available and we can think wthich one would make the most sense.

Good improvements. I recorded a video feedback now. Sadly I had more to say, so I recorded 3 videos

I would say for the 3d wizard it should be one of these 3 (just the head won't work, we need full body and the nomad with a cat has too many details).

If we go with one of the 2 on the boards, we can make them float next to the island (like surfing in the air), but if we go with a VR one, they can be sitting in the middle of the library playground circle.

Ok, we would go with this wizard. Let's create the assets: head, hair, stick, hover board, hands, purse, etc.

And then once we are done we can see how to position one or many on the island.
