I'm just testing my skills, and as per request I'll try to create a well for the snow area, icy frozen, smaller, I'm using the original well and used it as base.
This is the first advance

Hello.
Nice
Also,currently there is a quest in game "The Well Quest" that says "someone is inside the well and he needs help."

So it would be better if it was deeper.

v.01
removed the water,
added dark layers for deepness
added some ice to the hook at the top

Testing on Snow environment.

adding some white snowflakes to the top, minor change
edit: 3 different versions
edit: attached the xcf file, with layers for future editing

I like the detail on the third one, nearest the bottom.

Has a little snow ice sticking on the inside wall, and some, just a little, piled up against the outside, looking like someone walked up to it.

Hey that looks really nice

btw, I'm looking for something else to do, I can work a couple hours every weekend, no animations, neither NPC's I just can't do those, besides of that I'm open to any suggestion.

we need better ice for nivalis
we are still using the ice of the old tileset because the ice made by bagzie looked kind of weird

NPCs work different nowadays anyway.
We just put the usual player sprite as base and then add hairstyle and equipment on top of it.
For example like this: https://github.com/themanaworld/tmwa-cl ... npc104.xml
Just saying

What is the name of the tileset in use ? I would like to have a look to it

@ Cassy
You are right, is easier now, but is not that, it's just the whole humanoid shape I can't get it, hehehe.

Both the new ice (which is dark blue) and the old ice (pale blue) is in the tileset but we only use the old one

I think I'm overdoing the ice, too realistic, I'm using too many colors.
But it is hard to get the ice effect with just a few colors, I think is challenging to represent deepness with just a couple colors.
In any case, here is the progress... Now I'm trying to reduce the colors on the right side, to check if stills look like Ice

each tile need to blend into each other
...that ice does not look like it blends well

Still WIP, just an advance, also added a single tile:
Edit: added a second tile
