    This is looking really cool (no pun intended) Torstan, hopefully you'll get it done before the deadline, and if not well I'll still look forward to the finished product.

    Yea, there are a couple of things to pay attention to, notably the 1 meter square scale they require, which of course is different than D&D that normally you play.

    Well as I can see it is a 1m hex - so I've laid down 100px hex grid over the wip to keep me on track. Now I need to polish this one off for the 31st and get my Dreeston map done for the Paizo open call... Oh, yes and my actual commissions for the 1st Nothing like being busy.

    Still very much in its ugly duckling phase.

    I've been playing with styles for the icicles. This is what I have so far. I'm working in greyscale right now to keep the filesize down. My laptop might kill me when I move to RGB. Anyway, all C&C welcome. This is all a litle experimental right now:

    Post Thank goodness!

    Thank goodness, you're still working on this - I was really hoping you got your entry in to ICE! No comments, yet. Looking good so far, but not enough details for me to properly critique. I am definitely looking foward to this.

    I like what I see, but will hold off on more comments until you are further along.

    Thanks for the encouragement. I have a short hiatus in other projects. I'm going to try to get the bulk of this done this evening.

    Post Wips rather than whips

    A small update - most of the lights an darks in place for the icicles. Highlights on the floor, shadows in pillars and walls to do, as well as the light/dark for the dragon and the ground far below.... Hmm, quite a long way to go yet.

    I think I will have to double the size of the hexes to keep the filesize down. I think I bit of more than I can chew with the scale of this.
