Mapping Assets, Textures etc.

I'm sure you all could make a great use of this :

The stones are great. The third one is amazing imo. You rock!

Awesome! I agree that the lavender flowers are really pretty and have a great color. Those dead trees are fantastic as well and a good tip about putting them under live trees to get the branches in view.

Why would you think WE'D think you're crazy? Nothing wrong with a good dead tree.

It just seemed so odd rendering a tree on its side. I sure felt crazy doing it, but it works laying under the boughs of live trees.

So I was able to get out before the snow hit us Friday night, and took a walk in the back forty and tried to piece together a couple large dead trunks or limbs. So hard to get something in the 15-20 foot range in 1 shot. But I was surprised how well they came out, once I GIMPED them backed together. 2 different tones on the 2nd one.

Nice logs!

Thanks Bogie.

I may have bit off more than I can chew on some of them. I took, I think 12 photos of a 45' Silver Birch that had fallen. It was odd, not even a branch in sight. Probably why it fell fighting for survival in a thick forest. Hoping I can GIMP it all together, but time will tell.

Edited: Make that 19 photos of that Silver Birch. That will be a big jigsaw puzzle to put back together.

I have so many pictures I've never processed into battlemap assets, that's the real challenge for me, actually getting time! They look very useful.

Right!
I have folders upon folders of crap(priceless stuff or so I believe), photos, GIMP files, very seldom do they actually make it to a PNG file as I run out of time. When I make my maps 1/2 the assets are just a photo of a texture I took that I drag in just to break up the monotony of seamless texture. I am trying to get better though.
