Mmm well, I gotta go with Robosprog's, though it's tough

The colouring & lighting.. those stairs have an increadible 'warm' glow to them, with the camera angle just right to pick up illumination on a few of the steps toward the bottom.. just love that!
Then a bunch of smaller details, like the loose tile poking out of the water, the trees gradually fading with the fog, and the grass & stone wall/fence thing outside the gate, the tiny bit of pathway just out of sight beyond the stairs...

I guess to me Robo's has the most 'feeling' of a place to it, or rather its the most evocative of them all.

Can't we vote in private? xD
Maybe a private poll or whatever. Just an idea.

Sure, send me a PM.

I've made up my mind! Going to sit down and write something proper for the post and prepare a nice little prize!

Kia's was definitely spot on. That one blew me away quite a bit! Second favorite would probably be Robosprog's. The composition and close-up detail feels really fleshed out and it feels really mysterious with the staircase. Third would go to Khyrps with the big structures. Plus the use of the skybox flowing to the top of the towers in the middle made a great flow. Just wish there was a bit more detail around the empty desert-space. Feels kind of empty. Great stuff guys!

Honestly, with Khyrpa's, it would be cool if he shrunk the entire map to plate-size (maybe a bit bigger), then used a spotlight on it with shadow casting. It'd give the illusion of directional light, even though the map is unplayable from how tiny it would be =P Playable isn't in the rules, so I think it's still fair.
