    Its a texture from over on deviantart.com - i believe its a high res scan of an old photo backing with an overlayed darker scratch texture.

    Put in a ton of labels, notations, etc.

    Added some flavor text into the negative spaces, probably going to bury them a bit so that they arent so crisp but i thought i'd show them like this so that everyone would have a chance to read them all...

    Sweet! The mix of fonts looks good, but I hope you won't bury them too far. Is that supposed to say 'shadowmen' instead of 'hadowmen' ? It's looking amazing.

    Well, my hard drive crashed...

    On the bright side i got my computer in to the mac store the day before my warranty ran out (whew!) and i had most everything backed up.

    Unfortunately I lost the .PSD file for this map so theres not too much more I can do to it, I guess this is the final WIP.

    Im pretty happy with it, it was good practice.

    Looks like something out of Fallout or some post apocalyptic setting.

    This is excellent vman; tragedy about the hard drive crash.

    I love the little tunnels and heddars... is it a real language you've used to name these places? If it's one you've made up, you've executed it very well.

    The language was made up for the piece - I think the meaning behind most of the words should be pretty easy to decipher. Im a big fan of post-apocalyptic and dark fantasy; I was going for a lovecraft-esque feel here.
