Description
Hi everyone--
Completed this yesterday after a couple afternoons of work - my entry for the Bryce April challenge.
It is my interpretation of the hidden city of Gondolin from Tolkien's "The Silmarillion"
Mainly bryce with some textures (and the flags) and color correction in photoshop, the buildings are a combination of Wings3d and Bryce- - The front gate has lillys in the front, maybe a small pond in front of the door, because I wanted it to seem evlish and "magical".
thanks!
