Mind putting the other picture of the former base version alongside it so we can compare?

first is more elaborated, let's see in the game how look ... maybe roof will appairs too light

as perimeter, maybe you can paint just a simple low line around the base profile, you can do-intend as a sort of sistem of bunkers - trencees
and tachiony change the colour of that line from black of simple perimetre to red colour

 :tada: My (hopefully) final uncolored version of the labyrinth bases plus a perimeter defense!

What do you people think of the perimeter defense?

I think the angle is a bit too steep to look like it's laying flat on the map, and it'd be tough to fit around some bases.  Here, it looks okay.  Good, actually.

Okay, I will see what I can do about that angle. On another note, I did a slight redesign on those "Holes" which now actually look like they have a siding around them. What do you think of it?

Here are some examples that are not covered by a wall.

Also, if you are interested, here some ideas I came up for perimeter defenses. My favorite has to be the wall in the lower right corner. I call it the wall with razor wire and might put it around the spartan bases.

Hrm. My advice for that is make sure the barb wire has variations of grey to make it all spiky like, and maybe make the wall itself steep: taller.

Edit: and maybe more sloped, like a redoubt or the castles at Krak de Chevalier.

What do you think of this rough outline for the University bases. Each dome corresponds to a base size between 1-4. In specific, do you think the perspective on them is good?

It might be a bit flat, but it's hard to tell without more detail.

There are two kinds of scientific progress, the methodical experimentation and categorization, which gradually extend the boundaries of knowledge, and the revolutionary leap of genius which redefines and transcends those boundaries. Acknowledging our debt to the former, we yearn, nonetheless, for the latter.
