Thank you all...

@landorl - After looking at I again, I agree with you the walls need some work. Those are not really towers - not sure of the actual term here - but they are a sort of emplacement that bulges out from the wall near the top.

@ravells - The hedge mazes... Ifound a simple maze image and brought it into PS, traced the 'walls' with a bright color (yellow) solid brush of 5 pxls (adjust depending on your scale) then selected the yellow, inversed and deleted everything else. Dragged it onto a layer in my image and applied a pattern overlay, some noise and a gaussian blur (again subject to your scale), Voila - Shrubberies!!!!

@Ascension - The scale is 1pxl = 1 foot @ 100 pixels/inch (map size is 3000x3000 pxls)

Can you distort the hedge mazes and the pools so they follow the curves and aren't rectangles? I think anyone who build a round city would go so far with the decorative elements in it...

I tried to distort the hedge mazes, but I could never get them to look good (at least not to me) - I'll have to give it another shot.

In order to do so, you will probably have to use the pen tool and make a path, sort of like tracing parts and estimating other parts. There is another way, much longer, but with a more precise end result...use that big ole round brush in decreasing steps to produce a series of rings, then make a series of lines radiating out from the center. This should leave you with a circular grid so then just go back and erase the parts that need erasing to make the maze. Third way is to just find some circular mazes and scan em in and resize em

[mathuwm]

you could distort it in one of the many vector programs out there

Ilustrator for sure

OK, thanks guys...I'll try and play around with it some today and see what happens.

I am liking this map. Reminds me of a city map I envisioned for my old campaign world around 1980 or so.

There has got to be something cliched about a city map that NK was thinking about back in 1980. I just can't quite put my finger on it...

It reminds me of this map:

If you post up a full size B&W of the mazes I can distort them and fire them back to you.
