    Post Chateau D'Ambreville Maps

    Realized that I never posted the finished versions of these here - so here they are.

    These were my first serious attempt(s) at dungeon/indoor maps, so I'm sure that there are improvements that can be made to them. One thing I will definitely never do again is use a 10' grid as a base for a indoor map - way to difficult to scale everything properly.

    The chapel map is in the next post.

    Nice stuff - I can't wait to try my hand at some building maps.

    Do you use a transparent overlay - I don't see the 'squares' you are referring to?

    @MarkusTay - Thanks...

    I believe only the chapel map actually has the grid showing. I found a tutorial on how to create a grid pattern to use in Photoshop. I then create a new, transparent layer and fill it with the grid pattern and set that as my top most layer, turning it on and off as needed).

    LOL -figures...

    That was the only one I hadn't looked at. I really like that one - where do you get you icons?

    Also, is that 'Choir Loft' really filled with all those guys? Looks like your PCs may have their hands full.

    Most of the pieces were downloaded from the Dundjinni forums - a real treasure trove if you've never checked it out.

    The Choir Loft is filled with people turned by magic into the pipes for the organ, I just decided to use adventurer 'icons' rather than plain statue icons.
