    Wow...the aesthetics on this map don't even make it look like Halo. Impressive.

    Very nice, I love the Dim de los Muertos theme you've got going on. This map reminds me a little of an old H5 map called Pueblo by MartianMallCop. Both maps use a similar style: https://www.forgehub.com/maps/pueblo.3138/

    I hate you and yet love you at the same time. You continuously set the bar higher each map you make. Nice work man.

    Great looking map! Nice use of color and more detailed than most similarly themed maps. If it plays as good as it looks you got a real winner! And it's a Slayer map (4v4)! We can always use more of those!

    This looks straight out of the desert kingdom from Mario Odyssey. Damn.

    So, as gorgeous as these screenshots are and the map itself are, the lack of a surrounding aesthetic backdrop for the map, or any real containment, kind of kills it. I'm sure you've used most of your pieces on the interior, which is why it's just desert around it, but it would probably be worth it if you could find the parts to just fence it in somehow. Even setting some thick distance fog could work, making the city look lost in the mist so you can't tell that the map ends at the borders.

    Nice! I really wanted to make something like this when barrens came out. Love some real world style forge maps.

    This looks fantastic, best mexican themed map I've seen. @MartianMallCop needs to take notes, Pueblo needs your fine art skills. I'm always interested to see what you come up with, every map is a work of art with you.

    Lol thanks man. I eventually rebooted Pueblo as an Italian town in the Cinque Terre peninsula rather than using the original Mexican theme though. Its new name is Tourist Trap. I was straying from it's original stylized roots. At this point I've left that map behind me. I have new projects that I'm much more interested in.

    Regardless. I dig the theme of this map. It has the Dia De Los muertos style of art with a mix of bright colors in a more stylized fashion. Love the inclusion of cyan in the map

    It's awesome.

    Very vibrant locale, a very unique design look. Stood out to me immediately as I scrolled down the maps feed, will download!

    Ole', this map honestly made me think of super Mario Oddysee with how bright and vibrant it is, I really do enjoy its art direction you went for. Looks great man!

    This wasn't the next face map I promised but whatever I guess I will come across it one day. That map is probably the most annoying to work on so I don't know when I'll finish it.

    Funny you say that because that is exactly where I got the inspiration from. My next map is also inspired by the lake Kingdom.
