WIP: Hiero's Journey
Hey all,
This is my current project. My gaming clan is gearing up for a game set in the theme of Hiero's Journey by Sterling Lanier.
I found a bitmap of the map from the book online, imported that in and then chose to use Spectrum Overland style. Quickly discovered I needed different fill styles, because of the size of the map. It is 1500 miles by 1500 miles. From this, I will make various regional maps with all the details.
Of course, I dislike the rivers and am considering options and layout is not yet final. The GM is ok with the rivers, but I'm not heh.
Anyway, any critique advice is quite welcome.
thanks
Cal

WIP: First BattleMap: Ice Caves
Hey all!
I'm working on a map for my FG MERP starting up this Wednesday. It was inspired by the map in the adventure module. I really need some help. I'm going to try and post it correctly along with the FCW.
Please help me out on this. Here is what I'm having issues with:
1: indicating that the outer part of the caves is actually rock, not ice (or frost in this case)
2: frost. Trying to get a better, more obvious 'ice' fill heh.
3: bevel lighting is dull grey...can't seem to fix.
4: water...ugh. Could use some major critique/advise on that.
thankee!
Cal
PS: Oh, suppose I should explain I like drawing outside the border/screen so I don't get wonky effects right at the border/screen. I really just prefer an outlined rectangle for a border---when I can figure out how to do that, that is heh.
