Hi, I created a few new tiles to complete the set:

Google Earth ... I too agreed when I first saw the first picture is was from there. LOL

I really like the trees !! They look real ...

Wondering .. if the main area was card stock, could the trees rocks and etc... be printed on a transparancy paper?
thus where the tree was printed would be a tree and everywhere else would still be clear to see beneath?
Just my 2 cents worth..

These do look great !!

this might sound rididculous compared to what you are attempting , however ... i too have created a setting outside of the dungeon context . in fact my heroes were given acces to the emperor's hunting lodge in a barony near to the seat of power . it is here that my heroes must defend the realm from marauding orcs , while attempting to learn vocations ( i.e. farming , hunting , weapon proficiency , potion making )
my boards until now have been hex grids , colored with marker , and attached to heavy board . more recently i have begun making walls out of matte board , crocheting the little trees and bushes , and paper mache for rock . elevation changes are incorporated into the wooden base(s). i would like to post some pics .

Sorry, could you explain it better ? You'd like to only print the ground, and then several transparent paper to add a layer of rock, a layer of tress ?

Yes .. If you printed the gound, grass and roads on paper, ... and have all extra stuff trees and rocks on transparancy plastic sheets, a person could move trees
and rocks where they wanted them to be places, Also could cut down the extra pictures say print 8 to 10 trees on one transparancy paper and cut around them to have 8 or 10 little pieces. But now I am wondering how does the transparancy plastic small pieces not move.

If I could only find that site I kind of got the idea from. You downloaded with purchase a pdf file with so many tiles example #3)10x10 (5) 6x6 some 2 x6 or what ever size they were smalls ones also there, and you could add extra stuff to main tile prior to printing. Example you print (4) 5x5 rooms all the same dungeon tile. In the first tile you could add table and chair, 2nd tile bed and dresser, 3rd tile weapons room, 4th tile blood splatter and dead goblin, etc... thus you are not limited to the authors design.

Or I could just provide you with the modulable version of the objects (tokens), I see there is demand, so I'll do it soon, I promise

Meanwhile, I created a new tile : the watchtower

It's empty, it's meant to be filled with furniture and a token for stairs that I still have to make to reach the upper level of the watch tower.

What do you think ?

[ndsandman]

Nice very, very nice !!! And yes token made of card stock would work too. A token made with card stock would have a little weight to keep it on the other tiles keeping them from sliding around. Wizard of the Coast sell tile sets, but carry are hefty price so I would love to make and print my own just never knew where to get and how to use a program to make something this awesome.

Don't forget the door LOL

I am very impressed. Keep us posted.

You should use use the heroquest doors lol otherwise, you could simply dig a hole ! xD

Basically, I'm using GIMP and a several websites:
cgtextures
google images
dundjinni

The rest is pure composing

Thank You !

Wow that dundjinni software looks interesting and cgtextures had so many cool things to view. Oh yes I will be trying this out too. And if my projects turn out only half as good as yours I would be happy. Keeps , towers, Inn etc... this might be a fun project. I am currently downloading dundjinni. Just need to hone my creative thoughts from mind to software. Might even try to get my wife working on this too. Thanks again for the info ...
