Please tell me your technique, that looks so incredibly good. Have some rep *bonk*
Inspired by IndustryGothica's experiment I liked his wall style, so I figured out a way to generate a seamless version (512x512):

Then I wanted to put it to use so I doodled up a little test map to put a masked copy of it to use.

I gotta get back to dungeon mapping, it's fun!

The thing I love most about RobA's work is that he does it all in Gimp. While us photoshop users shell out tonnes of money to buy stuff, RobA makes it!
Nice texture and dungeon Rob...I'm sure I'll find a use for this.

I am curious as to how you made your floor tiles (texture and coloration). I can make some assumptions but I am unsure exactly what you did. Also, how do you get your tiles to line up so well? Do you just draw over a grid (and how do you do circular rooms). Remember I am using photoshop not GIMP.
Thanks.
Thanks for the grey brick texture, Rob! I've snatched that image for future use. I tried to rep you for it but I have to spread it around a bit more before I can do so again.
Cheers,
Tim

Nice textures. I like. Thanks for making the seamless wall texture. I plan to grab that and play around with it. I also like the background (outer wall) dark grey rock. That one from anywhere in particular?
