Hey guys,
Been trying (and sadly failing) to keep my business above water. So no I am looking for work. Got a few leads and hopeful that I will have at least 2 offers next week.
I'll post an update in the appropriate forum ,so please let's not swamp this thread.

I've been away from Banished for a few years and have found myself drawn back into it again.
Was amazed and happy to see more Asian buildings and deco added to the mod list. I've only done a quick (very quick) search of the site so forgive me if any of these questions have already been asked and answered but...

Do you have any plans to make more Japanese items (and Japanese houses in particular)?
Do you have any plans to make other Asian themed items (e.g. Chinese buildings)?

I am working on a Japanese houses and storage mod right now :) (pictures here: http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?topic=3588.120 (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?topic=3588.120))

I don't currently have plans for what to do when I've finished the Japan set, mostly because I still have a lot to do. Also, because with COVID, I can't go to the library to look at reference books. I was lucky I did all my Japan research over the winter. I did a poll somewhere, but I don't remember the other results. I think a country in South America was in second place.

That set of storehouses is looking very sweet!  :)
Thanks for the reply (considering if I had looked harder I would have found the thread about Japanese buildings in the Suggestions page and you wouldn't need to repeat yourself!)
I think the reason the Japanese buildings appeal so much (for me at least) is because I'm someone who was brought up on Western European architecture, so the Asian buildings are quite exotic - I'm really looking forward to the storehouses and houses you're working on.

Great mod and the charts are a fantastic addition.

Your collection of Japanese mods is great and quite comprehensive, we can make full villages now and when combined with the three little Japanese mods that were released years ago, we have quite a bit of variety.
Do you have any plans for more Japanese themed mods? (I'm really enjoying these ones so I'm being greedy and want more!)

I am currently working on a clothing mod, which is a little bit of a challenge, as I can't change the models for male and female citizens. So it'll be a bit "inspired by" traditional clothing.

I also have plans to do a start mod (just to have the rice, tea, etc seeds unlocked at the start), and if I can find some royalty free music, maybe something that adds new music to the game, though I don't know where to start with that one.

I'm also going to upload the mods to Steam and Nexus mods too, when I am done I think.

I think the Steam community will be really happy with you for that, there seemed to be a big interest some years back in Asian inspired buildings but there weren't enough mods to create entire villages, so people seemed to give up on the idea.
And to go fully into wishful thinking mode, maybe your Japanese mods will inspire some of those modders on Steam to create some Asian buildings  :)

I hope you will take some inspiration from ancient chinese clothing styles as they were more varied. 

Though the korean hanbok and japanese kimono were influenced by chinese textiles and clothing originally, the hanbok is more frumpy though cute and the kimono is high-maintenance and restricting (many layers) and is best worn for special occasions whereas chinese clothing was beautiful as in flowy yet also practical for movement.

In truth, there are over 56 different ethnicities and sub-cultures that comprise china's empire and if korea and japan had officially been swallowed up and considered provinces of one nation as china rather than separate independent entities, the diversity and variants of the different ethnicities would have just been considered part of the chinese diaspora but koreans were fiercely independent and japanese were formed from proto-korean (descendants of earlier koreans with some pockets mixed with residual ainu strain) and it's culture along with chinese influence.

Sort of if europe was considered one country instead of italians and french lumped together as if they were exactly the same culture etc. The west is usually only aware of mandarin (central) as in dialect, szechuan and cantonese (southern chinese provinces) sub-cultures of china.

For instance, chinese did not sit or sleep on the floor usually or use metal chopsticks (only koreans use metal chopsticks) and only koreans used ondol flooring but both chinese and japanese use wooden chopsticks but traditionally both koreans and japanese both sat and slept on the floor on cushions etc.  Only koreans eat kimchi, not chinese or japanese etc. Only chinese used woks but not the koreans or japanese etc. The strains of rice crop also differs as only koreans and japanese eat medium-grain rice whereas all others grow and consume variants of long-grain etc. But for the purpose of the game, making distinction between rice crops is unimportant.

To be brutally honest, I can't see the bannies well enough to see much difference in their clothing so the clothing styles are not of particular interest to me.
Buildings, over-water buildings, vegetation, crops, animals, production chains and so are the sorts of things I'm after.

I think this is true so it's more the production aspect of it like linen clothes (general undergarments), shoes, coats, hats etc keeping in mind what bannies would need or want etc.

Actually the clothes override mods worked very well for the diversity of clothing even in appearance rather than the base game and from far away, it's generic enough (long dress in different colors with some type of smock etc was common in general) that it could apply to any number of races and cultures from the past. There would only need to be just a few modifications to this or additional styles or colors would apply to any culture, west or east.  It's just that the mod doesn't work specifically when you choose east asian bannies to make a far east map.

The asian food production buildings (the more rustic, the more authentic it would look) and maybe a koi pond park would be essentials to a general asian map. 

But the fun is in the production of such clothing or shoes or items or goods, even if you don't see them use or wear it because it lends an imaginary element of authenticity to the game.
