Dark Meeting....

really nice...especially like how you created an ever so subtle transparency of the thatched roof of the shack.

Thanks for the kind words and the feedback

Excellent final map. blending the road and grass textures helped a lot and I like how you used a transparent thatch roof.

I also like this. The composition is very pleasing, the colouring is superb, the thatched effect is very well done. The foliage is magnificent.

However I feel the horses are too sharp (perhaps ran a gaussian blur 2 or 5 pixels on them to break up that black outline) and I don't like your grid much. But overall this is a fitting finale to a great series, and a good map to finish Calan's story on. Good job jtougas.

(EDIT: also your water texture looks over-stretched to me, but now I'm just nit-picking.)

That turned out really nicely JT, looks like a polished battle map.

Because I admire your work so much and respect your opinion and advice, I decided to make the changes you suggested. I lowered the opacity of the grid but because I have placed a grid on all the other maps I have to stay consistent. I appreciate your comments and your feedback Oh and The Adventure is far from over.....

Well, I think the horses are too blurry now and on second thoughts I preferred your earlier water. But I do prefer this grid. And I'm glad to hear Calan continues - I don't know where I got that idea.

Just when you think it's done.... You were right about the horses I sharpened them up a bit. I'll split the difference with you on the water as I think I really like this version. Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it.

Excellent.
