it looks kind of ugly honestly. 
I don't like the wall props much and apart from that the layout looks kind of boring. I agree with Adorno about the walls in the moat too, it looks very weird. You can probably just leave the wall sections on the bridges and take out the sections in between for an instant improvement.

I tried to do something like in this picture;
Thanks for your answers. I will fix them.

I think the weird colours could be the result of some strange enb/reshade settings or similar. Also, game settings seem to be very low (look at the wall textures in the last picture). If you want to keep the walls at the ditch, I suggest turning them around and distorting them a bit so that the battlements hide under the terrain. Shouldn't the walkways through the ditch be made by the attackers and thus not be fortified?
Also, you could add some more wall sections to both sides of the scene to add to the immersion.
There's some OSP somewhere that has very nice Constantinople walls you could use.
Edit: Ninja'd! In the picture you linked, the wall towers are far wider apart which looks better, imo.

I did a complete restart on Dale, as I want it to look bigger and a bit less flat. So, I tried to go for a waterfall-themed scene (drawing some inspiration from Dinotopia's Waterfall City). I used a workaround I found in an old thread to circumvent the water_river bug by adding a second plane of water to the mesh. Also stole some more meshes from other mods to achieve a more russian look.
Don't mind the wall texture, I totally ****ed that up.

Nice! As far as borrowing props, try pulling a couple from Nova Aetus. There are some high quality Russian style props there, and decent textures.
From far away it looks like it has potential for an awesome skyline. I usually place the towers first, then check the view angles from far, from the town gate, and from the castle. It's sometimes challenging to get a placement that looks good from all player angles.

Love it. Majestic!

Do you work for some mod or something?
Finished the major building layout for my town scene, just have to add more details.
And for the curious, here's an overview of the whole scene

Thanks for the hint on Nova Aetus, I'll take a look. Also, that's basically the way I work on scenes like this, too.
Not particularly, no. I'm thinking of releasing some scenes as a submod for TLD, one day, but sadly, many props I've used are not OSP. However, if you ever plan to restart working on FA and need a scener, just pm me.Beobart said:

Hmn. Waiting for Bannerlord. There will be more nice possibilities.
Looks like an out of bounds mesh to me.
I actually did that. Still looks improvable, though.
So, I think Dale is nearly finished. Some streets and especially the landscape could use some more details, but, at the moment, I just don't care enough. Time for attention whoring!
Edit: By the way, thanks to Mandible for the vertex colouring tutorial!
