lowercase skye Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 This has been driving me insane when I think too hard about it, so I thought I'd make a little thread here. Despite "Walnut" being used as a descriptor for fences and gates in the past, the Walnut Bookstack has an entirely different color. You could argue that skins aren't necessarily supposed to match each other between sets, however the Stained Glass Gate uses exactly the same wood color as the Walnut fence/gate, so It feels like there's some intention of Walnut woods matching together? I'd love to see this adjusted, personally.

Evelo Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 That's 100% a perception thing, I am sure the color values aren't exactly correct but they look identical to me. Hopefully it gets fixed though.

dzzydzzy Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I think the subtle variation doesn't matter too much. In fact everything being the exact same pulled pantone would look a bit dull. The slight tweak in hue in your screenshot doesn't look offensive to me, as an artist. But maybe it's a different experience in-game. I know how the seasonal overlays can really pull out all kinds of tones you wouldn't otherwise expect (I personally dislike that effect much more, especially when trying to use geo placement and all the tile boundaries are completely washed out by either winter or summer brightness).

lowercase skye Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 Huh, surprised that it's not all that clear to others, it might just be a me thing, either way: here's the Bookstack: And here's other Walnut things: It's not 100% different, but it's definitely not miniscule... They're pretty different shades. Though I get if it only bothers me.

If they remove, i hope another skin would be add that maitain the grassy sprite, because it looks like after some days in the wild, grass started to grow over the things, and because i don't spend so much time in base, it makes sense that the character hadnt cut the grass XD Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/143001-the-walnut-bookstack-doesnt-match-other-walnut-skins/#findComment-1597053 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make both the fences and bookcases more distinguishable from each other having slight different tone. I see no issues there. 17 hours ago, Hornete said: I just want to see the grassy sprite at the bottom removed from the Bookstack skin. I frankly agree, at least on turfs with no grass around. it just is a pain to see it looking like it's either shredding rocks into blades to stand there or rocky grass started sprouting. Not too far from truth in this game but it just looks weird.

Another membe Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 But you wouldn't use it together with a fence anyway.
