    Wip My first Battlemap

    Well this is my first try to create a nice battlemap with GIMP.

    I used RobA's Dungeon Map Maker script, added an ocean part (the setup is a grotto) and some stuff like dead bodies and equipment.

    I used a floor texture from this site.

    All other additions are either from the Dundjinni forum or from graytale.com with the exception of the summoning circle, which I created myself in GIMP.

    I had to scale the picture down, so I could upload it here, so the 'real' one is bigger.

    Any comments arer welcome

    I like the map. It looks good, and I can see the potential for it in a D&D game.

    I like it -- the only thing I'd change is the interface between the water's edge and the ground. The chisel is kind of strange, maybe an edge fade or something. Regardless, nice map, I'm thinking about what I can use it for
