This was a fan art I did a while back before the release of Kul Tiras zone.
I remember seeing the trailer/preview of it and I love how the theme was related to the sea life of the Kul Tirans and ship parts can be seen in their architecture. I wanted to try creating textures like the Rock wall, N'Zoth motif, and patine/patina roof that relate to this piece.
It was super cool to learn about the patine roofs and how they are created!
I wanted to design an abandoned lighthouse that was rebuilt into a tavern for the concept. I imagine ships that crashed nearby were used to construct the body of the architecture.
As for the tavern's name, I thought the name Murky Murlarkey would be fun because it is close sounding to Murlocs which I had one hanging in the front of the tavern.
Overall, it was a really fun piece to work on!
