yeah I do the same for my D&D maps actually.
|
:/ I dont know whether I am glad that I am a perfectionit OCD or not... Cause I meticulously spent hours on trying to figure out workable stair space & height, accessibility, dimensions, and on and on for my witch tower here. :/
|
That is a lot of detail!
|
Well, the worse point is, those detail will not be even shown specifically in finish product! Lol.
Example, I notice a lot of people insert staircase without considering the steps width, height of each step to achieve the floor height. Now, I am thinking about how to access my tower roof with proper consideration of rain. Go figure why Xuxu want to make life difficult. |
Do you study architecture xuxu? You sound like an architect or an engineer
|
I am working as Project Architect. O____O
Is it what they called Occupational Desease?! |
No, I just don't know if anyone but an architect could actually suss out how to account for the rain [lol] that was a lucky guess.
|
Ironically, I am still a noob. I am not yet experienced enough to calculate those technical things. Right now, I just estimated and throw it to the specialist for them to check. Lol
|
Still, you would know more about it than me, or another layperson.
|
I have a dilemma... I want to have double volume, but I have a rather small round plan for tower, if the staircase is encircling around externally, then it will break my double volume inside... *GONK*
You will be reading a lot of my rant these few days, until either my motivation is out or the problem solved. :/ This is my second time picking it up to design again. |
I have no idea how to solve that problem I'm sorry.
|
It is a problem destined to be solved by me... Well, eventually.
You or anyone need any map done? I need some supplement to trigger inspiration. |
I have /some/ training in technical drawing so I do my own maps [yes]
Also, wow that sentence was hard to type while drunk. Wooooo. |
I am in the verge a breakthrough! Can I solve it? Can I solve it? *self engross*
Are you drunk now? |
I was when I posted that message. I'm not anymore.
|
It's friday. i'm going to drink tonight. ALSO
I did the math, and about the size book I want to make would be around 143,635 words. |
That's a good hefty size!
|
if my math is about accurate. its how big tamora pierce "Terrier" is. :3
|
Oooh, good choice of comparison. I know that one well.
|
Not into Tamora, but heard about her name a lot.
Hey... I wonder how you do the maths and come down to such specific 143635?! |
I counted out how many words were on one page and than multiplied it by the page number. xD
|
Seems like as good a system as any
|
Oh, have Shadamimi completed the story?
Because I thought whichever work you were counting is unfinish, and figure it is an estimated number. If estimated, I though people would always round it up? |
no I was doing the math in a published book to see roughly how many words i should aim for as my end goal :D
|
Oh.. So you are basing on word count as goal?
For me, I dont let word count to restrict my story. If it needs 367 words, it will be 367; if it needs 47,700 words, it will be 47,700. I... I just want to finish my story... *sobs dramatically * |
