Need help from a forum member (good at designing)

Hello fellow inners.
Could someone please do me a favour?
I'm in need of a couple of images, that I can print and then use as impassable terrain pieces on warhammer fantasy.
It's not immediately needed for heroquest, but it probably will be in the future as I'm planning to merge the two games in my quests.

Anyway, I need 2 pieces, one should be a chasm, brownish and dark colours defining it, about 6x3 inches, shaped like an irregular oval.
I have something like that in mind http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oTJOHFAWdic/T ... ground.gif
although it should be a single crack in the ground, and showing from the top instead of sideways.

The other one could be a dark greenish thing, representing bushes, vines with thorns etc. Circly thing, 4 inches in diameter, irregularly defined as well.

If anyone here could help out with this I would greatly appreciate it. I'm mostly looking at chaoticprime, sjeng...
I'm guessing you guys can do it in a tiny amount of time, whereas I would invent a new species before I could come close to doing it at all.

If you also have a better idea of something similar that would work better, feel free to be creative.

Thanks in advance! :cookie:

I was so close to posting a picture of a "bush." Thought against it.

I can do this when I'm back home with the Neverwinter toolset. I would just build a landscape with the requested features and make a screenshot. For the bushes, however, I'd recomment a 3-dimensional model. It's cheap, easy and looks pretty good, when you use the lichen that is normally used for the same purpose in model railways (it's also used for decorating bunches, wreathes and bouquets). It's really cheap in any model shop and even cheaper at a florist's (well, when I was young, I went to the graveyard to get it from the thrown-away wreathes).

Yeah, this is almost spot on. Something like that, a bit more colourful though. Could you send me some of those scanned tiles please sir?

You are right, I thought about a 3-dimensional for that, and I'll probably do it in the future. I just lack the materials and the time at the moment so I thought of a picture. Plus, if I ever use it for heroquest in some way, figures would have to stand on it.

Thanks for your quick responses everyone!
