Lighting for tops of walls
I noticed a comment somewhere regarding the tops of walls. I think they were suggesting something like this:
First of all - holy you have a great ability of illustrating your intentions. Of course largely because you literally illustrate them :)
In terms of the "hiding things you shouldn't see - I have no argument. That is a dreaded chore I have been avoiding but expect to get to soon. I am a little on the fence about not showing any of the top blocks, although I don't disagree that the lighting I was using didn't look quite right.
Perhaps a more darkly shaded top to indicate it's out of the players view, but still has a nice aesthetic.
Illustrative issues!
I think you should ultimately make it the way you think looks good for you. It is always good to see alternatives though. It can inspire. Myself, I am not really married to either way. Perhaps your solution can grow out of the way you hide things that shouldn't be seen.
