Right now all I need to know is how the rocks should look. I know it seems like such a small detail, but I'm going to want to see how I should make them. Other than that, the rest of the smithy will be a breeze, I'm almost done with it.

Thank you! (Please post that sheet of examples!)

I've put together some elements to help you understand the new look a little better. The basic concept is the same, except the tones are lighter and there is less contrast. Almost like there is less of a bubble and more of a gradient.

Everything in this new world needs to look like it belongs in the same space. You can't have mismatched styles and mismatched color schemes. The new look is also a bit more "rounded" Everything is softer, no jagged edges. shading is the key. As you can see from the wood and rocks, it just looks more appealing than a gradient with shadow and light, it is actually 4 similar colors.

I have finished the new smithy. I used the new Kingdom Island art style and it looks great! Come back to the forums on Tuesday to see it! For now, here is a small sneak peek of the new room:

Enjoy!

I would do something like this but I need to re install my HP wireless scanner printer thing whatever and then I can work on some drawings. Great work though.
