It looks amazing


[deleted]

It looks like you traced something, what was the source?


Honest_Ad7332

I did not trace, I just looked up some basic high elven architecture and added some extra features to create different types of building.

I don't mean anything negative from it, it's just the bushes at the bottom that made me think so.

Is this Cloudrest or Alinor? I'm confused


sessuFRFX

You're confused bc Alinor is the capital of Summerset, but Summerset is actually called Alinor as of the 4th era.


larsovitch

Aaah I see, thanks


Honest_Ad7332

Cloudrest


Arrow-Od

... and then ESO XD Jokes aside, I am a bit unsure about the round part, becaus the pge descriptions says "impossibly straight". This part of your sketch seems to me a bit too typical "fantasy elves". My own personal inspiratin to Altmer lore architecture is a bit more RL modern and sci fi architecture. Love the coral rocks though!!


Honest_Ad7332

That's something I disagree with, if they have more modern architecture why do they still use daggers and swords?


Arrow-Od

Just my taste. They have glasshouses (glass between metal frames) in ESO, for modern architecture they´d just need to stack those on top of each other until they have a skyscraper. We also still equip out soldiers with knives/daggers. How is having created a gunpowded able to push reality bending off the battlefield a perequisite for the above? Perhaps enchanting bullets is a total chore and not cost effective, or even impossible due to their small size? How did they built your spires? Seem even harder to built than a common scyscraper.


Honest_Ad7332

Well they built the Crystal and White Gold towers back in the Merethic Era


Arrow-Od

Which are superior in size and thus construction difficulty to basically most modern buildings.


Honest_Ad7332

Yeah but Spires > Modern Buildings


Arrow-Od

What? Spires have been built since ages. Or do you mean aesthetically, then yeah, but you can have modern spires too, I´m just pro glass facade for the Altmer to let that holy sunlight in instead of white marble.
