So me and a friend are going to try and make a city at one point and i was working on a wall layout.
Tell me what you think?

I intend to expand it, make the entrance bigger, and wider make it higher and make the walkways a bit wider but this was just something i tried to make in a short period of time with decorative aspects put into it.

It looks pretty good. But if you want my honest opinion, it's really generic and unoriginal. Countless towns are surrounded with similar walls.

Suggestions:
  • Top the walls with stair blocks instead of half-blocks
  • Expand the bottom block layer of the walls to be wider than the middle section (look like an I from a cross-section view)
  • Expand the gate structure farther along the path inside of the wall
  • Make the gate structure higher than the rest of the wall and add decoration like a banner
  • Add buttresses
  • Find a way to make it unique. Something with either the design on the wall or the actual shape
