Best Work I seen for Shakuras is by KTV suenos pacificos and KTV Star Sapphire that those maps are pure art you can download them on Bnet open source.

Looks like the shots of Protoss skylines you see in the Brood War Protoss win/lose/mission briefing screens. Amazing how well those skyscrapers work with those colors. I always thought they didn't fit the aesthetic of most Terran architecture in the StarCraft universe.

That looks great, but where do the people enter from? Are there gonna be landing pads or stairs to that level or something?

Thanks. Yeah... I was playing with landing pad placement on the jutting out bit that has benches on it now. I was also going to sit some airships along the "curb" or something. Or maybe include it as a stop for a monorail track.

City tilesets are so difficult, but I love the look when it's pulled off well. I love the mass ads and lights look.

Yeah a landing pad would be pretty dope imo, although stairs can be fine. Even without none it still looks good, it doesn't have to make sense.

A stop along a monorail track would be awesome. There's so much you can do with city themes, so many options.

Frost has a Christmas tree, that's my measuring stick for sense-making. Actually, that's really not that weird. Perhaps flying sharks are the true measuring stick.

Maybe that's why I'm finding it so difficult. 'Limits are freeing' and all that. It's hard to decide on what looks good when you can do so much. I've never looked at so many skylines in my life. I'm finding Hong Kong, Shanghai, Seoul and Osaka particularly beautiful.

Oh and there's this ridiculously amazing piece of game design from Halo: Reach that served as a big inspiration.

The final product, I think. Added the monorail and landing pads.

+ Show Spoiler +

WIP map partially inspired by Istanbul skyline. SC2 doesn't have a good set of doodads to recreate classical Byzantine architecture, so I made do with a futuristic version.
