Some pretty nifty tricks for dealing with magical things there. Very nice and innovative.
This was a quickie for a private commission. High level PC gets his own demiplane with full blown underwater cave lair!

It was fun to run through a nice small straightforward map.
It's a commission so it's rights reserved.

If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Yep. Not totally convinced by the illusory walls, but the other ones turned out well.
Basically - light colour and a solid brush on a new layer. Right click layer -> select pixels. Select a new colour like the original one but darker and more saturated. New Layer. Fill selection on that layer with the new colour. Drop it behind the current layer and gaussian blur by a few pixels. Ready made glowing magical lines.
Great lil map you got there Torstan, like the magical effects.

I just love the blotchy background. Lovely as always, Torstan!
I am curious though... what is the function of room I?
Very nice, it's quite complex, yet simple!
Nice! It's simple, effective, and looks hawt! what more could you ask for?

"...sometimes the most efficient way to make something look drawn by hand is to simply draw it by hand..."
Ah nuts. Good catch. It's storage... I'd better fix that. Oh the joy of smart objects, that's a quick fix.
Ravells - yep, it's a colour jitter large fuzzy brush on a soft light layer. I like the effect it gives when blocking in colour.
Thanks guys I'd almost forgotten how it feels to start and finish a map in the same day...
nice map torstan! indeed 'simple' yet very effective and looking very good. cheers
