Used stroke path with Brush a lot, and selection keeps the dark textures inside the landmass instead of just be on top of the line/coast.
    Im confused, i thought actions didnt record specific brush strokes/paths but generic commands? or did i misunderstand?

    You can create a path from selection and stroke it with the current brush. That's all record-able in actions. Then of course you can continue with it by creating a selection from the path and contract/expand/smooth etc and do it all again, and create an action out of another action, yadda yadda yadda. Lots of fun.

    i am liking this thread. Its a organized workflow almost make me believe that i am drawing the entire map with you, bad can wait for the detailed elapsed time for the entire build will be a nice reference for evebody know how are going in the progress.

    BTW the names of this places must receive names like you time: Mountains of the 30 mins, Five mins Plateau and your compass follow something like a clock
    just imagining the map follwing your work.

    This shape remember a lots a lich dragon or a t-rex.

    This is very cool Schwarzkreuz. Now more than ever I want to get PS so that I can learn how to set up Actions to save myself some time in map creation.

    Yes exactly, its very nice and stunning what you can do with those. I have actions creating cloudlayers, colerfill and textures. The only wonky thing is that the actions tends to messup when you record the change of layer orders. So always give them specific names.

    New Trees for the DeRust Set, they are realy realy tiny, but intended for a more Pattern like effect. I hope they work on the map.

    C&C welcome
