A forgotten bootleggers entrance through the sewers into the basement of a popular tavern serves as a place of study, contemplation and necromancy. Always looking for constructive feedback

I followed the Live Mapping tutorial for Sailing ships from Annual 3 and things worked out better than expected for a first pass. This was a great tutorial for learning a few tools I had not used previously. The map is still WIP, but it has me searching the internet for more assets that I can use to fill out [Clutter up :-) ] the deck. Thought y'all (all y'all?) might enjoy the progress. This is intended to be a bulk carrier of cargos such as rock salt or similar cargos. Feed back is always appreciated. Need to find a better solution for the hatch covers, but I stuck to the assets in the style for the moment.

Cheers, Ede

Has ben questing to discover the final resting place of a powerful relic, a greatsword named The Darkness. This is my first map with the Ancient Tombs Style from the 2019 Annual. The Fire pits are a fill from SS2 Bit Map A, the armour and the teleport portal (purple thingy) are from Mike Schley.

The party was "shocked" to discover the guardians here were Fire Elementals... not. The hieroglyph border tells the tale of why the greatsword is here and the dangers of removing it from it's resting place. Not hard to guess what the party chose to do :-).

Still playing with textures. I keep telling myself I won't add water to my next map, and then I do. SS2, Forest Trail and Creepy Crypts.

Enjoy

The party has left the dimension! Travel to the resting place of the famed magical sword known as The Darkness in a tomb buried kilometers below the world's surface, requires passage through an exra planar gate. The first step on the journey is a way station in Oblivion where entrance to the tomb is accessed through a through a second gate. But which is the right one?

DD3 Color and Forest Trails with third party magic circles.

I still need to work on exporting maps as jpeg but this one looks ok in the VTT environment. Using Blend and Edge Fade Inner with reduced transparency for the ligher grass areas on a seprate sheer. They pop a lot more in the jpeg than on the screen. Almost looks like an aerial view of a golf course, not what I was trying for🙄. Will experiement with transparency further.

Any guidance is appreciated

Playing with lighting in a cave complex. Some of the shadowing still causes my perfectionist brain fits but its pretty much what I want. Comments, suggestions constructive criticisms always welcome.

The walls across corridors are intentional, it's how I do secret doors...

Happy New Year All

I am creating a night time encounter in a graveyard for a VTT game and LoopySue's Creepy Crypts is turning out to be awesome for the task. I just realized that we never asked for any corpses so I had to raid DD3+ for my dead body. This is WIP, plenty more details to add but I wanted to share and see if there were any suggestions from the community. Map without the shadow effect on is down below

And without the night time effects

Cheers

@Royal Scribe I had completely forgotten to add the Wall Shadow effect, thanks for the reminder. I've been trying to get rock face/cliff face type features in various maps for about a year now. I tried a lot of things using the various rock drawing tools in several CC3+ dungeon and city styles but it wasn't getting there. PBE Games has a numner of different textures, mostly rock types, that can change the look a lot. I have not moved beyond figuring out the texture scaling and picking the base texture. The lower map is a different texture pack.

A small farming community that is having an issue with the local wise woman. She's blighting their fields unless thay meet her demands. Using the Darklands City Style (thanks Sue!) this time. Is the blighted field on the right hand side believable?

Cheers
