In today's Live, Ralf mentioned that he might release some free monthly add-on symbols for this style, and he asked for suggestions of what to add. Here are a few ideas:

Natural

• Craters
• Mesas

Structures

• Demi-human settlements (elves, dwarves, orcs, maybe halflings)
• Temples -- Greco-Roman style, ziggurats, something like Angkor Wat?
• Monuments -- I love the new Egyptian symbols. Maybe something like the moai statues of Easter Island, or monoliths?

Thank you, good eye!

Tyr Alomere Tower - Floor 2

Toggle: TEXT LABELS layer to hide/reveal the numeric labels.

Toggle: OUTSIDE MASK sheet to hide/reveal the semi-transparent parchment filter over the outside.

Description

The tower’s main dining room dominates this room. It is accessed through a staging room where the tower’s staff can plate dishes before serving them to the wizard’s guests. A small lounge off of this room includes a balcony overlooking the main stairs leading up to the tower, allowing the wizard to greet guests and direct them up to the second landing. Although there is a secure, metal door leading to the exterior stairs, this is primarily used as an emergency exit, and this floor is generally only accessed through the interior spiral staircase. That staircase leads down to the kitchen and up to the tower’s main entryway. This floor does not have proper windows, but arrow slits allow for a little light during the daytime. It is primarily illuminated with torches enchanted with a Continual Flame spell that allows for perpetual heatless, smokeless flames.

Tyr Alomere Tower - Floor 1

Description

This floor is used primarily by the wizard’s staff. It included a kitchen with a dining nook. There are two rooms for food storage that are kept chilled through the use of magical crystals – one cold enough to freeze water into ice. The boiler room also includes laundry facilities. 

As this is the ground floor at the base of the stairs, there is no external access to this level of the tower. An internal spiral staircase on the northern wall allows for descending into the basement or rising to the second floor.

Sap Core map has so many amazing details! I don't recall seeing those craters before. Are they from Mike Schley Overland?

I love the mountain symbol with the cave. So many adventures end up underground.

I like them!

For those who are interested in learning how to create these but learn better by watching, Ralf has a good tutorial about creating varicolor symbols, starting with the vector ones.

We all have those days! At least, I know I do. Fortunately, the staff and community here are incredibly helpful.

My personal experiences are more with desktop publishing, not design. Used to be reasonably proficient with things like PageMaker and Quark and MS Publisher — none of which is useful here. I used the Corel suite in the 90s but haven’t owned it in decades. To create the circular symbols for my Modern Journeys map, I did download GIMP and learned just enough of it to be able to crop an image to a circle. But for quite a lot of stuff, I have used (of all things)…PowerPoint!

Didn't have a chance to follow the PDF yet but in the meantime, here are two approaches using three concentric rings of 16 panels per ring. The top is a solid fill and the bottom is a light blue set with a 20% opacity. (Copying in a circular array sure saved me a lot of time here.) Also haven't had a chance to experiment more with the Ball.png filter.

Now I'm thinking my dome might be flat panels welded together (with metal seams) rather than a proper ball. Hmmm. It's for an observatory.
