Icen, colours were modelled on a real board, with the exception of the pale green which should have been a medium shade of blue. The reference I used wasn't an English board though, I think it was the New York version. I'm also sure someone else could come up with something funnier than free lewt for the free parking square - "You may not rest here, either find an inn or rest outside" or something. Or just the tent graphic. "Community Chest" didn't seem right either, though I'll admit "Random Encounter" probably isn't the best substitute

Schrodinger's adorable polka dot bow tie almost makes up for his horrible, horrible time-dependent equation.
Minsc: What? Boo is outraged! See his fury! It's small, so look close. Trust me, it is there.

Hmm, if it didn't already have a Temple of Ilmater, I'd say that would have been perfect for "Free Parking". Mmmm...how about "Listening to Neeber"?

Actually the first one is purple.Colours are only slightly off from regular monopoly (from GO, going clockwise): Brown, Light Blue, Magenta, Orange, Red, Yellow, Dark Green, Dark Blue.
Icen
This one shows the colors quite vividly. (Yes, it's an updated one, but all the old ones were so dull.)But as Doxia says, we NEED more Athkatla!
(Though I heartily suggest if you wish to continue the conversation on BG Monopoly to start a thread for it. The Rec Room or Quayle's Circus seem appropriate.)

Lythari: Looks great, especially the bodies. She has a nice outfit design too. Man, those stones must have taken forever to do.
Nix: As others have said, awesome idea XD I like the various temple symbols, and your comic fits in perfectly with it.
Ugh, buildings (and backgrounds) are such a pain to draw

Good job though, as well as everyone else who has been drawing us pretties, or funnies.

Nix, that's all kinds of awesome.
Kellen - as a child back in the 70s I was a ruthless monopoly player and my London board definitely started with brown - Old Kent Road, I believe was the first square. Mayfair and Park Lane were the top of the line, and were dark purple.
I'm sure the colours vary from country to country and according to edition.
Shae - that's fantastic. It would look great coloured although that's a lot of work.

The original American Monopoly board had purple cheapest streets, while most of the International versions had brown streets there. Since then the new versions for America have been adjusted though, to these days they have brown starting streets too.
