creating cliffs in dungeon designer 3

silverpaladin · March 2010

I'm a relative newbie in map design. I have been designing maps for the campaign that I am running, and although I am no expert, I think I can make a good looking map that satisfies my gamers, but one thing keeps alluding me, how to do a convincing cliff in a dungeon, I have looked for tutorials and just can't find one that helps, or makes a cliff that looks good.

please help.

Cliffs are always difficult, because there main dimension is vertical and that's hard to depict in a 2d map. I've attached a quick example of what I might do to depict a cliff. It's drawn with one of the Terrain, Dirt Grey tools, moved to a custom sheet with some special effects.

If you own SS2, there are some nice cliffs in the first example map. You might also find some nice cliff examples in this thread and some inspiration here.
