Paths for my new town?

MelbaBear · Oct 30, 2017

I?m really struggling to decide which type of paths I want for my new town! It?s going to be a nature, kind of
meadow themed town if that makes sense, I want the town to feel really open with lots of flowers. Does know of any path designs that would fit this theme? I thought maybe a dirt path or a wooden board path, but I?m not sure!

I've used dirt path and stepping stones for that kind of effect and I think they look nice. You can also lay a path that looks like a dirt path until you've sufficiently worn down a natural dirt path. I'm using a wooden board path in one of my towns and it gives it kind of a casual feel. I've seen some qr codes that have wooden boards that look like they are getting overgrown with grass that might work for what you're talking about.

That's a great idea! I really like the idea of the overgrown wooden boards, I'm looking for some right now! Thank you <3

I've used a couple of the qr codes, and gotten inspiration in designing my own, from that blog.

I much prefer a cobble stone type of path. I used it in my Riften/ Skyrim themed town with some grass mixed into it it looked really good! especially with all the different type of flowers.

If you have a set theme then you may have to match to that, otherwise I recommend trying to get an intricate one with details but that is fairly neutral. That way it can go with whatever aesthetic you want to pursue.

I really like the idea of a grassy path! I'm struggling to find a wooden one that I like so I might end up going for the stone. Thank you!
