And here we set eyes on the first of many setting revamps. This is the great, cursed, frontier bastion known as Phuungahie ( Formerly known as Fuungahi. The spelling change reflects the intended pronunciation. ) I'll talk a bit more about it in the character design post for this page.
The Gomradi ( Yes, I added an "R." ) have also gotten a redesign. The male Gomradi sport a more muscular upper torso type frame and their heads have a more lion-esque mouth. Their armor and clothing style now resemble a hybrid of Roman legion and Tudor influences. Their Hopla mounts have also had their bulk diminished. I'll talk more in depth about them in the design post.
On the artsy side of things, some more big changes to the visual style of the updates. Big, digitally painted backgrounds are a thing now. It seems I'm pushing the art style more and more into animated movie territory. Which is fine by me. I do love cel animation.
