    NWVault's QSW has conducted another interview with a Community Tileset Pack group member. This time, it's Chadigar. The group is dedicated to creating a pack of tilesets for Neverwinter Nights after the manner of the Community Expansion Pack for the same game. Here's a snip:

    1. The Gothic Estate set has some really beautiful features/groups etc. Mazes, Gazebo, railway station and train! Greenhouses that just totally stun me in their detail and beauty. Tree lined road, magnificent pools and gardens, Manor house and even a carriage house you can walk into, to name but a few! Chandigar, as the artist of the Gothic Estate & Gothic Interior tilesets, can you tell me what inspired you to create such tilesets in the first place?

    First of all, thank you for taking the time and showing enough interest to interview me! To answer your first question, it really was a multitude of factors. The first and primary motivation at the time was my search for gainful employment. I was at the point in my career where I was seriously trying to make a switch from architecture to gaming. To do this, I needed a portfolio.
    I have experience doing architectural renderings and some gaming modelling in the form of the Aztec Exterior set, but I didn't feel it was an accurate depiction of what I could potentially do. I was rolling some ideas around in my head when Andrew of the RLCore group contacted me and talked about their project for a PW/sp Mod based on the Ravenloft universe. He described the idea of a giant greenhouse that he needed for one of his areas and that sort of got the ball rolling.

    I felt the greenhouse (the precursor to the Estates) would be a good test for myself since it was an encapsulated project with a good degree of intricacy while also being unique in the mix of tilesets currently available on the vault.

    Read the whole thing at NWVault.
