So been playing around. been wanting to build something of a sun and moon temple etc Here is a couple small town centers I want to do,. though not fully happy with it. at first I wanted it to be really close to the sun and moon in the game.

Wow, those are really cool… and kind of cute :jubilant:  
Regarding your color issue: maybe you can use red for the sun’s outlines and blue for the moon to soften up the effect a bit?

yah I was thinking something on that lines too. I would love to keep it original sun and moon stonehearth style. but they are just dark with the black outlining.

I cant want to make it 3d style.

Just Call it, more color mod 😄  
By the way, you could talk to @Relyss since she made this mod

For those lazy people that are tired of goblin camps and removed structures leaving holes on the ground, this mod brings the terrain colors to the slab tool, so you can fill those unsightly trenches. [A19/A20/A21 Download link](https://www.dropbox.com/s/dgsrccks3xgpd0y/terrain_colors.smod?dl=0) (If you’re playing with latest A19/A20, use this version) Latest compatible version: Alpha 21 Change log: Added tooltips for the colors. Tooltips end with “(Terrain)” to differentiate the defaul…

which would work really well together with yours.  
Since you have a lot of very nice colors but you are missing some of the standard colors while Relyss’s mod misses your fancy colors 😃

Oh and, moon and sun look very good 🙂

honestly, this is only 1/10th of what I have in store for the mod.

and I have talked to her about it awhile ago :jubilant:

I want to do all tree colors ( and tree block colors)  
all vegetation colors  
all christmas colors  
all animal colors  
all ore colors  
basic black and white.  
All enemy colors (since some do differ)

LOL that is why you only see a few at the moment. like the oak tree one is complete. it has all the colors from each stage of the oak tree. even unreleased ones ( not that I have seen an ancient oak tree yet)

and this is why I dont want to do it in just in one, I may kill the building system (maybe? xD)

but I decided that I wanted to do separate ones  
so it would break down as

each tree in a different mod  
ore colors  
christmas  
food  
flowers  
animals  
enemy

etc etc

Hey @Simica_Na,  
about those outline colors again. What about using white instead of black. It will brighten the whole thing. Might be worth a try.

Ok this one has wayyyy less lamps but still the same effects as well as i changed the moon slightly. next version I may try inverted bumps vs current
