Not much accomplished this morning - increased building density along pier and milling areas, fussed with roads and paths. Will start working on the south of river area or "old town" section over the weekend.

Thanks - didnt realize that when I brought in the Spectrum Trees, I didnt resize them. I struggle with scale, how do they look now? Added a couple of hills as suggested. Played with the edge fade inner, but couldnt get a look that I liked. Trying to depict a land that is being drained - except where Druids are be paid to "tend the land". Used the water settings from Darklands-City in an attempt to create a "sickly" coast.

My first battlemap. Explored sheets and effects. Still struggling with scale and symbol placement. Despite trying to calc the size in advance, I messed up and ran out of room - so horses are hobbled in an area off map. Suggestions are always appreciated!

I find this site very helpful to help get my mind around the project before starting:

My first attempt to use the color key effect - rough draft of a rocky area battle map, playing around with trying to create pits of bones. Not exactly there - I think the bevel effect helps, but it should have more shadows.........suggestions welcome as usual!

Working on a color shift from the green/grey to a green/brown to designate "old town" buildings.

Have to leave off this project for a little bit - getting ready for neck surgery next week, been bothering me for years - compressed nerve sets off tendonitis in my right arm and hand - hopefully a successful surgery will alleviate and I will be able to use my mouse hand for more than a few minutes a day. Here's where I'm at:

Worked a little on the shipyards - need to add roads and LOD, but I think I'm making progress on "old town". What do you all think about putting a few farms inside the "new wall"?

What time do we all come over for the game?

Expanding on the Bent Road Crossing, this is my first draft of the Kingdom of Liosach. Struggling with the Mountain range. Overall concept is that Druids are draining the land - so once outside the major population centers the land is showing the effects of the draining. Advise is greatly appreciated.
