Battleback Test
Added 2018-05-18 21:03:44 +0000 UTCHello! This is what I was working on today. It's based on a popular patron request.
This was put together in photoshop using the existing tiles.
The goal, of course, is for a battle background that is consistent with the Time Fantasy style, but not something so outrageous that it would take an unreasonable amount of time to draw.
I didn't follow usual restrictions when working with tile-based maps, so it creates for a more fluid look with the placement of objects like the trees. I could potentially push this even further-- by hand-drawing the curve of the road for example, rather than using the existing tiles.
I also did a little bit of extra work around the edges to create some depth and focus the field of battle-- you'll notice the difference in the shading on the grass further away from the road.
Please let me know what you think. If you have suggestions or ideas to improve on these, share your ideas here. Also -- would a set of these be something that you are interested in?
Here's a animated preview .gif that I put together in RMMV (big):
There's only one download for now, since this is just a test version. I have the 100% version and the one sized to work in RPG Maker MV.
Have a good weekend. Thanks!

Just gonna throw this out here. If this is the compromise for battle backs it looks amazing! I would prefer this than a redrawn battleback anyways! It goes so well with the resources. Hopefully we can get some more like this. Good job man! :)
