This is stunning! The colors, too, are just brilliant! Idk if it's your thing, but if you could make a tileset with this same blue theme with the norse/medieval/rune vibes, I'd LOVE THAT. Five stars for this, anyway!
Thanks for the five stars! Always nice when the atmosphere of the page is well noticed because it’s something important to me! I had this blue theme originally planned for a project of celtic runes (aka. oghams) that I scrapped but you’re making me reconsider it :D
