    That's exactly what I saw. I love it, it will go in my lair when I come back to horizons!

    Those new ones are nice. I like that they have a cave-painting feel to them.

    Well done!

    That's what I saw it as too. =) It is a very emotional moment for a hatchling, I think.
    Exactly the kind of scene some dragons would love in their lair. (I know it'll be going into mine)

    Wee! Oh yes oh yes! I must put these in my lair! I like the leaf, the reflections, the jeweled one, all of them! Gah! I love how the game is coming back to life and we're getting new things. It makes me all giddy and happy on the inside =3

    Okay, when I saw 'Reflections of the Future', my reaction was 'Wow!'. So I composed a piece of music to reflect my impression of the artwork. Here is the YouTube URL (with permission from Nambroth, of course):

    The sentiment and emotion in that mural is powerful. Kudos to Nambroth. She is truly amazing.

    Beautiful piece of music, Ashtalon. I really loved it! And Nambroth, excellent work! Thank you for making these. Same to you Solitaire. Love that you put gems in the one. It's, by far, my favorite. Yay for sparkly things~!

    Love the music! Is a very nice piece to listen to.

    I hope to have some additional decorative items in the future that have more complex geometry than just those gems. I have a few ideas and one model that is "complete" that we want to use, but I was having trouble getting the client to accept it and let me place it in a lair. After the work on the labyrinth is done, I plan to revisit it and try again.

    I'm also working on some new decorative items for biped plots. And for the artsy types out there, there is another festive season coming up in the near future that could use a bit o cheer for murals and the new biped decorations. *hint hint* Expect something official about it soon...

    Nice! Can't wait to see the stuff you've got behind the curtains

    Will have to keep an eye out for the stuff comming up 83 Maybe I'll give it a shot now that things aren't so busy.

    Very nice piano playing. Unless that's fooled me and it's actually midi... I don't think so, though.

    Very nice music, Ashtalon, especially between 3:45 and 5:00.

    I love that Nambroth drew and then Ashtalon was inspired to compose music. Creativity is a wonderful thing.

    You build them in your lair like any other structure. A mural occupies an "endcap" space (those dark grey covering over connection points.)

    If you mean like.. how do you make your own murals, that would involve overwriting a currently existing mural texture but even then only you would be able to see it. Any other player would still see what's normally in-game. Player murals do get added to the game, but they get submitted to contests and the like. In fact, most of the murals in Shian's post are from contests.
