    Thanks Bio, I have been playing about with it in the process of completing this map. I am not sure there is much more I can do with this last WIP so this could well be my final WIP. This is also at full 70dpi/5ft res.

    really nice job so far RedRobes! I like the way the lighting plays on the floor
    Like a thief in the night
    she comes with no form
    yet tranquility proceeds
    the accursed storm...

    Thanks everyone ! For the lighting I just made up a bitmap put some white dots down where the torches were going to be and then blurred the hell out of it and increased the contrast a few times till the radiuses of each blurred torch spot were about 30' or until they nearly touched. Then when I add the texture of the floors I multiply it with that mask. The separately, I added a little yellow with that same mask too for the torch glow. Then I masked in all the dungeon stuff as a single layer and afterwards added in another similar mask of the light spots but this time with only a little blur and in white so that the torch glow would be on top of the dungeon stuff. A sort of lens flare or dust sparkle or whatever you might care to call it. I thought about doing proper shadows but I would have had to have done each one by hand since this was not done in 3D. Instead, I just took the stuff mask, blurred it a little and added some black there for a little shadow under all of the dungeon items. Many VTT icons you come across have that black shadow built into them but my icons generally don't have it.

    And Tenia, your right to be afraid....

    Oh - lightning ? Well there could always be a bit of a storm if a magic user lets off a couple of lightning bolts

    I tried the realistic route for a while then threw in the towel and went half realistic and half old school. So sort of hatching for the background in the old school black and white style. Its going to be really interesting to see a composite map of all the entries.

    Thanks very much Wolfe ! Never had a wow before I am not sure its really wow worthy TBH. I really hate my stairs and I am absolutely sure that theres going to be others better than mine. My token artwork leaves a lot to be desired too. When compared to some of the token PNGs that are posted here mine are pretty coarse. I have a mixture of pen and ink and 3D rendered stuff so its a real mix 'n match.
