Following on from Ralf's Live Mapping session, I redid the map of Heather House from House on Gryphon Hill, which I have renamed and am using in an adventure for my hapless players.

It uses symbols from a very old CC2 map of the building (not done by me). I guess I haven't changed much as yet. I do like the style though.

And for fun, an exotic jungle drawing tool.

Here are the fills I have made, using the method outlined by Ralf. I have put them in my Mike Schley drawtools.

I wanted to create rocky wastelands for smaller regional maps.

Here is the drawtool page, and the examples.

I have also used a pattern to overlay the underlying fill, to create a further distinctive wasteland fill, for use in much larger maps.

And the symfills I created:

Fabulous maps. I am inspired to try the same style.

But for reference, here is Ahab, my beloved Schipperke (Belgian barge dog - all black with no tail).
