    I think this thread needs more life to it. I've recently finished some eight or so battlemaps, still waiting for roll20 marketplace to update itself with 'em inside. In the meantime though, I've finished a simple enough battlemap set in great outdoors. Let me know what you think!

    Looking very good. Personally I like a grid on battlemaps, that gives a scale as well. I don't know if you're planning to use them on a screen or on print - if its the latter, they are a bit dark = toner-heavy, especially the dungeons where you could make a version with a thinner wall and the rest white Have some rep

    Thanks! Haven't given thought to making print versions, really. I make them with roll20 in mind, usually 1400x1400 or 2100x2100 in size, so I tend to leave the grid off as roll20 has its own grid system that'll align properly to the battlemap after its size is set properly.

    It's something to chew on, certainly. Making print versions wouldn't take too much time, I think.

    Here's something from my very first Map Pack. Time to celebrate by making more battlemaps.

    You certainly did a great job on those!

    And when did you start making maps... Good job.

    Less than two months ago I barely knew how to use GIMP. It's been quite a rapid learning period for me

    Nothing learns you quicker than actually doing. Nice work.
