Just a really big tower

Recommended Posts

Hi there, folks!  I have a rather simple request, but one which is giving me no end of headaches to create.  What I want is pretty simple, but I keep running into issues with turning it into a proper tileset with a transparent background.  All I really need is a tileset that is just a single, large tower.  It should be the equivalent of 8 squares wide and 39 squares high.  Down the center should be a sort of pathway kinda like the one from Super Mario World, with little circles that the player would go to in order to go to the individual floors (There should be 13).  The style of the construction I'll leave mostly to your imagination.  There are two things that I ask:  The top should have a conical roof of some sort, and the bottom should have a pair of guardhouses with domed roofs.  Yes, I know what that will make it look like.  There's a method to my madness.  Past that, I encourage inserting your own fantastical details.  Even the art style isn't particularly important as long as it's obvious that it's a tower.  Any detail beyond the basics of the tower and the path is a bonus and strictly based on your own artistic whims.  I expect that an artist will have their own ideas of what it should look like and I've left a lot of the details vague on purpose to really let someone shine!  Thanks for reading!

Edit:  Ah, an important detail:  The tower is a school for witches learning magic!  The higher the levels, the more powerful the witch.  The towers above the third level are for fully trained witches with teachers at the lower levels and others going high, all the way to the top floor which is for the Head Witch of the tower (Haven't thought of what I want to call her yet as the story for this is just forming really.)  I figured that might be important for some who would want to put details that would correlate to such information.

Hey, just a little word of advice. You'll probably have a greater chance of having someone help out with this (as well as having the finished result better fitting what you're envisioning) with a reference image. Even just a quick sketch helps out tremendously!

Did you read what I posted?  A reference image would be completely redundant and unnecessary.

But never let it be said I'm not capable of fulfilling a request.  This picture is what I drew with my masterful abilities with paint.  Look on with reverence, for it required almost 5 minutes to complete!
