Mapping Elements, Starting with Preset Tables and Chairs

[Crimson13]

I've been looking around, either I haven't used the right words in a search or I'm too picky, but have you made any pillars Bogie? I've been thinking about making a map for a Gold dragon but I want to give off a "Holy" feel. They could be ruined or not, to give off that feel of time. Considering he's not "good" maybe ruined would be good symbolism...

I have not done any pillars. I am not very good at 3D or Iso drawing. Are you interested in 2D or Isometric pillars? There are a lot of both kinds on DundJinni Forums. I will set you up a link to those forums so you can see what they have.

There are a lot of good possibilities here: PILLARS at DundJinni

Thanks Bogie, I can use these for sure. I wanted to ask something else if you don't mind; on your post (#349) there's a red carpet underneath one of your tables. Do you have that carpet by itself?

Hi Crimson13, sorry it took so long, I didn't notice your request until today.
The good news is yes I have that rug on my drive in a couple colors. here you go:

A new mapping element I threw together today. A desk and chair, preset with books, papers, quills, candles and other items you would find on a desk in an office, library, study or bedroom. Throw a couple wizardy, or religious looking things on it & it could be a mage or cleric's desk.

Looks great! I think that may be a copy of An Old Mage Finds a New Love on the desk!!

Wow... this is a big thread.

Out of curiosity how do you do things like this? It obviously isn't hand drawn.

The desks and stuff are assembled from elements that I have in DundJinni. I pick a bunch of stuff that I think will look good together and then assemble it all in Photoshop. Some of the larger textures like wood, leather, & stone come from cgTextures and other texture sources. Then I photoshop them into the desktop or other items. Many of the chairs, and other realistic looking objects were created from photos I have taken. In the desk in the post above this one, the open book, the mug, and the chair were all from my photos. Antique stores and giftshops are great places to get photos of interesting things.

Interesting!

Thanks for all of the things bogie. I'm thinking about starting off on a new project that will be rather different for me, and it's good to see what stuff looks like from the top down.

Also, don't we have an honorable contributor badge for people who make/run threads like this?
