Palladio's Rialto Bridge (Work-in-Progress) (Patreon)

I've got the deck of the bridge finished, but I'm going to draw a roof level as well, along with a sideview of the exterior, which looks like this. It shouldn't take too long, but I wanted to give you a look at where things are at so far.

In addition to being a passage across Venice's Grand Canal, this bridge was designed to be a market, with lots of spaces for merchants and vendors to rent. It also has stairs and I'm going to be honest– I have no idea where they lead to. Up, down? Not a clue. I spent about three hours trying to figure it out, but I finally gave up and decided they lead to the roof.

I mean, they can't lead down into the pylons of the bridge, right? I'm not an engineer, but that seems crazy. Anyway, I think being able to access the roof makes this place much more interesting, especially since the central part isn't covered. So the party can come by for a little shopping and enjoy a lovely rooftop ambush at the same time. Or maybe they can be the ones doing the rooftop ambush. Possibilities abound.

Anyway, I'm gonna get back to it.
