Still gonna probably use images from HoX #5 for it, though, 'cause... Perrez. AND, because it was such a seminal moment.
Also pretty sure now, both HoX #6's (and subsequent) QC round table gathering(s) & its ending, celebratory festival, take/took place in the same area(s).

[QUOTE][LIST][*]… I had to design a lot of new environments for a world made of vegetation and flora. … Then I started learning about biomimicry, and that changed the direction of my designs for the book. Biomimicry is the science and art of emulating nature’s best biological ideas to solve human (mutant?) problems. [B]Biomimicry in architecture[/B] and manufacturing is the practice of designing [B]buildings[/B] and products [B]that simulate or co-opt processes that already occur in nature[/B].[*]… biomimicry architecture was as alien as I needed it to be. But at the same time, it was humanly relatable. The whole environment had to work as a living organism because it's part of Krakoa. So, no more walls or doors, no more windows or furniture. …[*]… I didn’t want to turn all of the designs into a combination of the same natural elements, vines and leaves. That’s because every place had to be recognizable and distinct. So I used crystals for the Hub on page 21, basalt rocks for the control room on page 10, mangrove roots for the first scene of the book on page 1, wasp cocoons for the husks of that same scene, organic shapes mixed with treehouses and contemporary architecture on page 23. ...[/LIST][/QUOTE].

So I stayed up late last night to edit in some new links w/quoted info, as promised, on my introductory post (now #9 on page 1, after the merge). As you'll see, the new main one is MUCH more suitable (and appropriate!) in EVERY way (IMO). And that I went ahead & decided to include the 6, separate Habitats that we know of, as well. I also updated all previously eXisting piX with ones that are now ideally consistent, in both size & quality, and did the same with any that were added. With that said, the breakdown reads like this:
[U]Confirmed[/U] (in the image itself, or otherwise, elsewhere)
[LIST=1][*]House of M[*]Arbor Magna [Resurrection][*]Akademos Habitat[*]The Grove[*]The Cradle[*]Bar Sinister[*]Hellfire Bay[*]The Red Keep[*]Blackstone[*]The White Palace[/LIST]
* All Habitats indicated visually in the last post on the first page, with 3 then expanded upon & shown further, in the final reserved space (now first post on the second page, #16).

[QUOTE=King_Thor13;4716627]I really wanna see the Wild Hunt + Danger Island. I'm all for this new terrain and I want a full exclusive tour please...[/QUOTE]
I CAN'T WAIT to see the new training area!
Funny enough, my inspiration for making this visual compilation, was to make it somethin' akin to sort of... a travel brochure, or even a... [I]virtual[/I] tour, if you will. I'd LOVE it, if Marvel gave us an official, handbook-style compendium, though.

Courtesy of yesterday's NM #3, and probably the best thing from it, we got this:
[CENTER][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/M42ArSh.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER]
XF #3 also gave us our official first look at a Krakoa [Atlantic] locale, with The Pointe. Which I'll add to the last post on the first page in a day or two, when it won't be considered so spoilerish.
-
So two things, first, I'm a lil' confused by that Krakoa [+Arak Coral] data page map from XM #2. At first, I was thinkin':
[QUOTE=Heroine Addict;4733551]... access might be... denied? Almost as if it were in... [B]another dimension.[/B] ;)...[/QUOTE]
… but upon further rumination, I'm now not sure if it represents things before or after, the amorous rejoining of them. The coral bit kinda lends itself to what might've been left behind, when they were separated. But if it is indeed after, the above quote could be applied also, so IDK. One thing's for sure though, it appears #[U]18[/U] on the original updated map was never Moira's No-Space as many (including myself) surmised, but instead the [U]Arak Maw [Transit to Arakko] - [Closed][/U].
Second, all the official data page maps (even this latest KrakoArakko one), seem to have miXed up how the individual [B]HF[/B] strongholds are allocated geographically on the SE [B]bay[/B]:

As they delineate The White Palace as being [B]in the center[/B], but Marauders #3 clearly showed it being:[/CENTER]
[QUOTE=Heroine Addict;4712790][CENTER][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/NMvH9GL.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER][/QUOTE]
[CENTER]… [B]Blackstone[/B].[/CENTER]
Oh & BTW, I have yet to edit in anything new or move already eXisting stuff around on the first page(s) as I was going to last night, but plan to make it a priority over the weekend.
-
I've been meaning to post these piX anyway, but since there's been some discussion recently revolving around it, I figure the relevancy's been heightened & there'll be no better time than now:

[IMG]https://i.imgur.com/suJRHuT.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER]
It was mainly to show [B]The Hub[/B] originally, along with its purpose & capabilities. But now, also to see that there's some distinguishing terminology used between what are full-on [B]Habitats &[/B] what are just mere [B]Gateways[/B]. To my knowledge, there are only 6 named Habitats officially, and so I assume any other similar, locational Transits shown (like the ones in the last page above) are just that... only Gateways. Feel free to disagree, and eXpress why you do.

You're absolutely welcome! I STILL gotta overhaul & revamp some, the 1st page+. But it probably won't happen tonight -- I'm such a procrastinator! -- 'cause I wanna read & report on Xcab 4 yet, for starters. Ya never know tho, I could get a jolt of ambition, and just knock it out quick-like. Doubtful, lol, but still... the desire's there. :o
