I just got done making my autumn path, but I couldn't wait trying to make a winter/ice set.

I had some time on my hands, and fiddled around with various designs. I wanted to try swaying away from the normal brick / square block patterns and to at least have melted snow on the side edges, but oh well...

This path still isn't done yet because I want to recreate my stairs and the extra filler tiles. But, I ended up with this. I'm pretty happy with this, but I can still change it around. What do you think?

It's my vision, and I can't see "ice" in it, but it is lovely. I am fond of blue, and you have a lovely blue design and the pink with it really makes it pop without overstating itself. I also like the simple but definitive border you have and it makes the bushes you have planted look like they are landscaped like a pro. :)

I like this very much! The stairs, when you finish them, will make your area awesome!
 
I suppose it'd look better or fit the theme in winter and with snow on the ground. I'm still working on this, but changing the colors makes it look interesting too. Some color swaps make it look like it has a snowflake outline too, but I'm pretty indecisive on what go with.

I'm planning on making some frozen lake and snowy tiles to fill in the gaps. Have any ideas that doesn't use up a lot of pattern slots?

Hmm I think a little snow around the borders of your path

And your path looks awesome !
 
I didn't change any colors yet, but this is what the paths look like at night. Does this look frozen? o-o

I swapped the colors, added snow to the edges, and curved the border some more for each tile. I really wished they let us be able manage our patterns easier and as well to store a bit more on one character. For my town, I wanted to make more rounded corner tiles for the border and varying snow piles :3...

Anyway, how does this look?

Thanks for the input ^^.
And whew, after lots of nitpicking pixel editing, I think I'm finally done with it. I think I could've made the stairs a bit better - was trying to put a tiny segmented shadow under the steps, but I couldn't find a good way to do it without the stairs looking deformed... oh well. I'd create more to add to it like very specific edge/corner combinations if I had more slots. What do you guys think of this though? Want the QR code for these? They take up 28 pattern slots...

Congrats! Are you an artist design :D

I hope you are encouraged to share too :blush:
 
Thanks. And maybe? xD

Here are the QR codes for these. I have 10 more patterns held on another character, but can't create QR codes for them because he hasn't befriended Sable yet. They are just very specific corner and edge tiles to fit my town better. Might have to wait a few days if you guys still want them?

Lovely! I really, really like these. I can't wait to see your other patterns. The stairs are amazing and the snow block is cute. I hope my camera will scan these! :)
 
your ice path looks really lovely especially during the night :)
 
Thanks again ^^.

I finally unlocked the QR machine on my 3rd character, so here are the other 10 patterns to add on to this. If you want to use this path and have some specific edge, corner, free/filler combinations you need, let me know - I can make a few for you.
