First ever map - Under the Old Skull

[littlehewy]

Hi folks,

I joined up here a week or so ago, downloaded GIMP as instructed, and found a few tutorials. Not a great effort, but this is my first ever map using digital technology. In my defence, this map was created, not as an artistic piece, but as a functional tool for a play-by-post D&D game I'm running online, and I didn't have much time to learn how to use GIMP (or make the map really good). The colour scheme is horrible and uneven, but my players loved it (although their version currently still has the unexplored areas hidden under a fog of war). One thing I do like is the hint of smudge that (to my eyes at least) makes the three holes look just a little bit like holes

The dungeon is "Under the Old Skull", from a 2E D&D adventure called Beneath the Twisted Tower, set in Shadowdale that came in the 2E Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting Boxed Set. The adventure's going pretty well, and if there's anyone here who's played or run that adventure, please feel free to regale with my your legendary tales of derring-do!

Thanks for having a look, I'm already finding out that this is a lovely community to be a part of. I'm hoping to submit many more maps in the future, learning along the way as I do.

Cheers!

Hewy
