    Aug / Sept 15 Lite Challenge: Make a Mapping Element

    We have done this a couple times, but it is a popular subject and it has been a while.
    Create a MAPPING ELEMENT. Anything you want to make that would be used on a map.
    If you are into regional or world maps you could create a set of mountain icons or brushes, a map border, a cartouche, a compass rose, an old fashioned illustration like a sea serpent, or even a parchment background.
    If you are into Battlemaps, then you could make tiles, furniture, objects, transparent covers, trees, rocks, buildings, siege weapons, boats, water effects like waves, fireplaces, stairs, shadows, complex presets such as full kitchens, bedrooms, throne rooms, stables etc.

    In the past some people have created a set of objects. That's OK, but to keep it fair a set can only have 6 separate items and they must be related. For example: 6 chairs, or 6 rugs, or 6 village icons, but not a set that is a chair, table, window, hammer and a horse. If you do a set, post them as individual uploads so they can be downloaded and used but then for a final post put them all on one background so the Thumbnail scraper thingy will display the whole set as one item.

    The Lite Challenge will end on September 14 and will be followed by 3 days of Voting.

    The winner will receive a shiny new Silver Compass.

    As always, please include the following in your thread:

    Title each new thread Aug / Sept 2015 Lite Challenge - <your title>

    Precede each WIP image with the tag ### Latest WIP ### otherwise your maps won't be in the Thumbnail section. It is best to only have 1 map of the latest WIP in that specific post to be sure the WIP you want is in that section.
