    Tutorial [Brushes & Other Tools] Schwarzkreuz Map-Elements Collection

    Hi,

    I have decided to only run one thread here in the Mapping Elements Area and collect all my material for a more easier collecting and distributing.
    With the time I want to put some new brushes and other Materials usefull for mapping in this, and open it for discussion.

    For the Beginning, I want to post my grids, which I use to design new map-elements like Mountains. To use a grid is an easy way for me to have an overview and controll about the sizes usable for a map. The Grids are on an 300DPI roughly A4 Sheet, the base box size is 5mm x 5mm and increased always by one another dimension of 5 mm. Its helping me a lot to have mountains for each set in a decent number, if I stick to the amount on the sheet.


    UPDATE 01: Edited Brushsets


    All my Brush-Sets can be used in private and noncomercial projects. Any comercial use is only allowed with my explicit permission. These Sets have been constructed within many hours of work, so please respect my usage Rules. Copyright by Josephe T. Vandel aka Schwarzkreuz. If maps will be created from this, dont forget to put a Link in this thread so we can share it. Dont share or distribute them without former permission on other Websites or sell them. Please provide a Link back to this thread if used.

    Here is the First run of Arden Map Brushes, its about half the Brushes used for my Arden Map.

    thats a great idea having the grid to use as a guide. i find when i make my brushes without the help of a grid they tend to end up strange sizes and especially with slightly off-orientations so i have to manually rotate them once theyre done. very handy tool
