Another free set for use.

I played around with this one a bit. Hope you find use for this.

P.S. Feedback for these sets are more than welcome. I want to know if these kind of things are useful.
Have a nice day.

Was inspired, so another free set today.

I realised volcanoes are kinda hard to get right, so I tried a new technique and it was quite easy to do.

Lava_Crater_byOmri_set1.png

So for those interested. I took the Crater set from a few posts ago, copied them into a Transparent canvas Bottom Layer and right on top of them I copied and pasted them again, top Layer and then added a layer in the middle for the lava.

So it looks like this:
Top Layer - Crater
Middle Layer - Empty (For Lava)
Bottom layer - Crater

Now for the TOP crater layer, I took the eraser tool and erased the part of the crater that is at the back and left only the front slopes.
I leave the BOTTOM layer exactly as it is.
On the middle layer, I lined up three colours. The first is the MID tone, then the Highlight and lastly a darker shade.

(The mid tone is not as bright as the highlight nor as dark as the darker shade.)

Then on the MIDDLE layer, I used a cloudy brush, on three quarters opacity and started just plastering the MID tone in. Then I use the darker shade to on a smaller size to add a bit of shading on the lava. Then Finally I use the Highlight very bright Lava colour to add highlights to the lava.

And that was that.
For the flow I just added a layer above the top layer and repeated the steps above.

If you have any questions, or found this useful, be sure to give a shout


EDIT:
Below are the desaturated version of them for those on black and white maps.

Heya!

I was busy with my large city commission and ended with doing an Arena.

Here is the free to use assets I did.

I did the shadows by making a few layers placing them on Multiply

ShadowCore - 80% Opacity on layer
ShadowLighterCore -45% Opacity on layer
ShadowDarkerCast - 35% Opacity on layer
ShadowCast - 25% Opacity on layer
Bott - Building

Then I use selection to make sure I don't paint over the building. And start with adding a dark 100% opacity Cloud brush to the 25% Layer. It is a bigger shadow. Then the 35% Layer it is just a bit smaller than the previous but still big. Then the 45% Layer I paint closer to the building and a smaller brush. Lastly I paint real close to the building, quite small on the 80% Layer.

I do it like this, then all my shadows across the city is consistent.

Have a nice day,
Omri

I was experimenting to see if I can draw a dragon. My first dragon.

Anyway, this is what came out.

A top down chute I did for my one Overview map. (Overlay was a good mode to use for it.)
