[Award Winner] Battlemaps in Photoshop

[madcowchef]

@Sitrane: lots of folks are using free items from the web. There is also a new tree rendering option within Photoshop that with some creative cutting and pasting can make a half descent top down tree I hear tell.

@Lichlark: Looks great, I'm not in your game and I'm already dreading that place.

Afternoon all!

Long time lurker, first time post. I wanted to share my first attempt at madcowchef's Award Winning Tutorial "Battlemaps in Photoshop". It DEFINITELY needs some work and further adjustment but I am actually somewhat happy with the results so far!.

I am not happy with the wall results; but there are going to the first update I try and make. *I had to compress the images a lot to get them to post. I hope they are clear enough!*

@madcowchef That tree tip is amazing! I use Photoshop DAILY in my job and I had no idea that was there. I will definitely be playing around with that.

How did you do your river banks? The way the coast transitions is so clean!
