Two ways I can think of;

1) trace the contours and just use them as is. Very map like, and may not be what the client had in mind.

2) use the traced contours and more shades of grey to build the gradations. So where you have 3 polygons now ( including the Island base), you would have 6 polygons and 6 shades of grey. I think using the same effects, but some tweaking may be necessary.

I have added a new building to my "Rooming houses / Tenements" Gallery.

This one is a batcher women's rooming house of type that was seen in Marvels "Agent Carter" season One. This suitable as a home for a character in any RPG set from the 1890s thru 1950 give or take. The actual building still exists as a care facility.

I tried to give it an inked and water colored vib.

According to my list, I bought CC DOS in 2000.

What got me into this? Architectural Drafting, and Traveller, in that order.

Monson,

I am not so sure that my sheet is correct. (I have a list of each thing I have bought, the order number, date, what, serial number, and code.) I am missing order data for CC2 V6, CD2, DD2, SS1, and FT. The 2000 receipt may be for FT which makes more sense. The copyright on the CC DOS floppy is 1996 so that may be a better year of acquisition. The CC DOS box has all of the missing in it but only the one receipt.

Wyvern, I have that on a T-shirt. :)

Julian, The batch of symbols that I noted awhile back should have the symbols that you need.

BUT, you will need to find what you want out of the list and then turn the artwork into symbols .

ubai,

Is the object you are moving a vector object with an even number of parts? If so, edit it so it has an odd number of parts. That should solve the problem.

See my gallery on "The Newcastle - a study in Map Styles"

When I need a circle that needs to be altered (I am usually cut off parts) I make an ellipse that is a circle then I blow it up. You should be able to fractalize it as well.
