The next in the series, under the element of Ice.

Pirtu'Vak Village clinges onto the Sirmiq Glacier and its surrounding cliffs.

It marks the last human settlement before the North Pole Mecca, but between here and there, lies the dangerous Tundrake Sea, riddled with numerous ice shelves, flows and Krakens.

The only safe passage, is to purchase one of Pirtu'Vak's renowned IceBerg Boats. Generations of craftsmen and women gathered here, all helping to construct these ships, which can easily carry 10 people whilst camoflaged from the sight of the Kraken, from the carvers of ice blocks from the Glaciers, Igloo Builders, NarWhale Hunters and Artisans, as well as Engineers, Pelt Tailors and cooks to feed the army of shipbuilders.

Due to the revenue into the village, Pirtu'Vak is one of the richest Inuk settlements, outside of the North Pole.

Inspired by Inuit/Eskimo Culture.

Again, I think to much for these things, and OOT on detail too.

Ooh very nice, such a great concept! Never think it's too much thought into one pic, the details make it totally absorbing =]

I like the use of grayscale too :3

Thanks, thought about using a blue tone, being Ice, but was too similar to 'Water' ? So a nice grey theme, me-thinks.
