If the mosaic is on the bridge, it obviously needs to be a recursed image of the same bridge.

An insane king?
A mosaic of bananas.
And Cheese.

i kinda like the idea of making a depiction of the sun. what about making images of the solar system across it? different planets in different color stone

how wide is this bridge going to be anyway?

how about on one side of hte tower in the middle, a hammer, and on the other an anvil?

or how about something very, very rude? prove how big our dwarvenly balls are!


oh, and suggestion from my friend jake: a large tower, capped with a hand flipping "the bird" to orcs. not sure how that'd work out exactly, but in 3Dwarf it would be awsome!

Hmm . . . insane mosaic . . .

Picture of the Mad King's severed head, bleeding rainbows?  As a slightly-less-than-sane person myself, I think that's what he'd want.

Presented for your consideration: a preliminary sketch



Some, if not all of the colors here may be impossible.

That sounds epic! The bridge would need to be wide enough for Jupiter though...

[ousire]

That sounds epic! The bridge would need to be wide enough for Jupiter though...

and it must be life sized!
i wasnt actualy thinking it would be the solar system on earth. just a cool depiction of planets, with the sun on the dwarf side and going all the way down. besides, i was thinking this bridge was gonna be, like, 10 tiles wide or something huge

and i still like my friends suggestion of the "finger" tower

[Heron TSG]

I suppose any series of planets would be cool.

10 tiles wide

and here was me thinking twenty was barely wide enough for an epic bridge

even better! *tahdah!*

[varnish]

If everything goes according to plan, the bridge will be 60 tiles wide. I think.

The solar system would be fun though. Of course, this all assumes that the dwarfs aren't massacred by this time next week.

[Maggarg - Eater of chicke]

Actually, a sun is always a good one. Not too hard if you have blue and yellow.

The Third Siege of Greatbridge: Events of Malachite the 2nd, 204

“Solon!” Oh, gods. She recognized that voice. Sure enough, in stormed Keilden, the dwarf she'd made the mistake of naming sheriff. Hell, she'd figured he'd be all right for the job; he'd volunteered after all. In retrospect, that was the problem. Never trust a volunteer. “Solon, I can't hold my tongue any longer” Wasn't aware that you ever had, she thought “I'm afraid that the criminal element in this fortress is out of control, and it seems to me that the blame for this rests squarely on your shoulders!”

“Wait, my shoulders? What are you going on about? And isn't it your job to control the, um... the criminal element?”

“Yes, and it's damn hard for me to do that without a proper jail! Seeing that you haven't seen fit to give me one! How can I deal with all these criminals” and here he pulled a long sheet of paper from his vest pocket, “without a proper jail?”

Solon stared. “Wait, just how many dwarfs do you have on that list?”

“I'm glad you asked me. Perhaps this will impress you with the seriousness of the situation.” He cleared his throat and began to read aloud. “Inaluct, Miner, two counts littering, 60 days. Pokpokpokpok, mechanic, one count loitering, three counts public indecency, 120 days. Solon Wardbridges, one count premeditated murder, life-”

“What the hell! I've never killed anyone!”

“My records have you saying, in regards to Lord Legon, and I quote, “I could kill that bastard.” It seems quite clear to me.”

“Ok, that's it, no. We aren't doing this.” Her eyes narrowed. “You have every single dwarf in the fortress listed there, don't you?”

He scanned the list, “Yes, it appears so. As I said, the criminal element...”

“We are under siege right now, you idiot! You can't arrest everyone! Th- that just doesn't make sense! Now get out of my office!”

“You may live to regret this, Wardbridges...” With that, he turned and stalked out.

Solon, watched him go, her head in her hands. “Yes, that would just be my luck, wouldn't it?”

[sonerohi]

Only three? I'm surprised at my self restraint.

[Vieto]

So, do I have a new dwarf as requested yet?
