    Wip WIP - Axe of the Dwarvish Lords (GIMPified)

    As a learning exercise for GIMP and Dungeon mapping, I thought I'd re-create the maps one of my favourite adventures 'Axe of the Dwarvish Lords'.

    It's a bit of a steep learning curve, with 14 maps overall and me a complete newbie to GIMP, but it's been fun so far!

    Note: All credit for this digital inspiration goes to WotC and the awesome team that put the adventure together in the first place. I'm just taking the old hand-drawn maps and digitising them for any gamers interested.

    If you're trying to work out where the levels sit in the stronghold, use Map 3 - Cross Section as a guide and it'll all make more sense.

    So here is what I'm up to so far - and all feedback is welcome and desired!

    Map 1: Temple

    Map 2: Region - Can't quite get the height map working for the mountains & valleys as I like, but I'll come back to it once I've practiced more with GIMP.

    Map 12: Main Level (Level F) - OMG it's a very large WIP piece.... and I have since discovered my oval stadium should be a circle. Oh well, back to GIMP we go! :-)
