[VCMI] Preserve Town
Did you like old Preserve town? Not so much?
Well, forget about it. New, revised version is coming.
These are concept arts so far, but you cna already see that there is some concept behind it indeed.

However I don't like the mantis as T7. It feels awkward to have an insect creature above mammals. Wouldn't something like this:
be a lot better? Or make the mantis of lower level and bring something else on top?

@Warmonger
Did you ask leader of the project for permission to post it all here? After all it's all Hei-reg;'s work.
I think it's a little bit too early to share this on the international forum. Yes, it's already much more than 75% of all "NEW TOWN" projects, but it's still fresh (however extremely vital idea).

Bringing a classic H4 townscreen to life is a really awesome idea!
I bet it will look much better than the original, because H4 screens totally suck. 
Can't wait for the first renders. Ah, and DAT FROG! ^______________^

Why not? If it's posted on an open forum, there is no sense to hide info. Personally I support my thread on Acid Cave and have no problems with that.

Leave Satyrs to Grove town
It's too early to say "New Town" when there is only background made . Will wait until town screen buildings at least partly made.

You are not exactly right here - that townscreen draft can be already used, lol. It is looking neat and consistent, in contrary to the vast majority of the actual 'true new towns'.

Great Idea
I really like the "stone turtle", good choice for level 8 unit.
Dragon Mantis looks amazing and deadly.
and Cernunnos looks like Pokémon

And even if the Grove Town was still alive, there wouldn't be much of a problem since the Grove Town does not belong to a massive and self-consistent mod like Hota, being just an optional town for VCMI.

And this town belongs to HOTA?
PS I draft is already exists and can be used for town screen, then it will be good it will be published (of cause, it doesn't look like HMM3 screen, more like

I still would like to have both, especially that both Grove and Preserve were (are) already available in VCMI, just not polished.

I don't know who would like to have 2 towns which have many similarities in their "nature-related" concept (I think it would be boring) at the same time enabled in their Mod Manager, but anyway, let it be.

I am
More towns - more good time.
Even if some towns are not very good or have no originality, they anyway will enrich RMG maps. It's better to have big variation of common towns, then one town.
And Buddhists say "let all flowers bloom" .
PS Of cause these guys want too much - instead of creating town screen they also plan to make creatures, and that's another story.
And i still remember polish Kronwerk and Bastion ressurection projects. They had almost all town screen graphics, and still made nothing except 1-2 draft screens. If these projects not aiming to create new, but to use existing, have failed, then any new project like this will call out sceptizism.
Like polish Forge stopped coming out at some stage. I hope it will finally be out one day, but it's better to have current polish Forge state than have none and wait for something.

Indeed there is a lot of work to do, and scepticism is naturally to come. We all have seen a lot of projects like this one fail.
But still, let's wait and see how it goes. And let me say again those artworks are beautiful
