[WIP] - The Griffon's Eyrie

Top down campfire?
Yeah, I agree. The last map where I needed a campfire was designed in Marine Dungeons. I found that in order to keep with the style of Marine Dungeons, it was easier to make my own campfire using the dry rocks from Marine Dungeons and the fire, scorched earth, and burnt wood from Darklands City -- both designed by Sue in complimentary styles. I have a tendency to mix and match from styles that don't always work well together, so sometimes I have to make an effort to rein myself in. Having the scorched earth fill available was handy, but another option would be to use a dark gray earth and then use sheet effects to darken it (or if a gray earth isn't available, use the RGB Matrix set to grayscale on a brown earth fill, and then darken it).

All this time, I thought you did the Forlorn Trails add-on, Sue.
Just searched for campfire. I believe the DD3 one comes from the CA49 (2011) add-on, under the Alchemy Objects group. SS2 Bitmap B has one but it's pretty cartoonish. SS2 Bitmap A also has one, I think.
Dundjinni Archives has a bunch of free ones but they don't always mesh well with other styles.

[WIP] - The Griffon's Eyrie
Good idea! I meant to do clouds and then forgot. Moved the cliffs to a Symbols Front 3 sheet (already had Symbols Front and Symbols Front 2 sheets), and also added some trees there. I will try it as a vertical map when I do a different version in Spectrum Overland. The battle map will probably be top down.
