This is how it looks: image

The animation of water is still based on the Shipyard image set so for now we use this.

Hi, @ihhub ! I've tested the build and the new sprite seems to work fine. The only concern I have is for the image itself. Besides the fact that the image has no animation in a shore part (which I suppose is not planned for now), this part lacks some details. Since there should be less water on the edge of the bay, so the ground should be more visible through water. I expect more smooth color transition on the coastline if the coastline is expected being so plain. The castle territory is mostly rocky and we even see quite steep bank on the right side of the image, which could be continued for the whole visible part of the bay.

Hi, @Districh-ru !

Yes, this looks much better! The only issue I feel for your work is that water should have a little more smooth color transition near the plain part of the bank. As the water appears darker near rocky coastline (which you've continued pretty awesome), it could be a little brighter (or there could be added some brown pixels indicating a thinner water layer) near the plain part of the bank.

Yeah, that was my original concept and we then switched to the beach. I agree that the cliffs are a slightly better fit as there's cliffs in the image already. Any chance you could pop into the Discord thread for us to go back to the drawing board with this?

This is a quick copy-paste just to make a sketch for @golden-lining (using Paint.NET). :) изображение

It was made from a screenshot from PR topic without using game palette.
