Since the in game map for today's adventure contained a few spoilers and since I wanted to do an Empire of the Sun map anyway, I recreated it with a few embellishments:

The work was fun, but the style could really use some "Japanese style clouds" (if these already exist in the style, please point out where they are so I can have a laugh, too ;-) ).

A larger version is in my gallery, as usual.

Thanks a lot, Sue.

The Shadow-Blur function was what I was looking for. Had forgotten how to find the Global Sun settings...

Also found out I had added an infinite shadow lenght to the bar by mistake.

Here's what it looks like now, with added ceiling lights for the kitchen and toilets and a "dishwashing station" in the kitchen.

UPDATE: Here's the midday version, Think I got the shadows sorted out now.

Update2: And here's the "House of Swamp and Fog" bonus version.

Starting to play around with dungeon lighting a bit.

Not 100% happy yet, but it's decent.

The daylight version of this map is still a mess of overlapping wall shadow effects - will probably add it later.

Larger version is in my gallery, as usual.

Cheers! :)

PS: Added a slight outer glow around the bar and piers, compared to the initial post.

"Nah, Nothing to see here, move on..." 😇

I was thinking about filling the stones with a hatching pattern, but I like the solid black.

It kind of adds to the "brutal" feel of the map, and I fondly remember old b/w RPG maps (probably MERP/Rolemaster) with black standing stones like this.

The only slight change I made was fractalizing the stones a bit. They looked slightly too smooth.

Thank you @Wyvern

Yes - it needed a scale bar.

Used the Dragonfish polygon from the map key to create the decorations. Might try creating a few more of these "Crest-Polygons" - they're very versatile.

Large version in the gallery is also updated.
