    I love the texture and the rollingness. (is that even a word??)

    Very nice.

    Great work Hoel!

    My only very, very minor nitpick is that the numbers on the buildings, etc. are very difficult to read (at least for me).

    I'm notoriously bad at scales. But i think the roads are supposed to be between 1 and 5 meters or so. The houses are small, but they are small people.
    It looks like a very small village, but since my halflings live in clans in huge underground burrows, every household and burrow can contain up to 100 halflings.

    I'll see if i can make the numbers more clear, and I've drawn an actual bridge now, instead of just road-over-stream


    Oh. And the Cock & Bull is the tavern. If I ever relize my dream of opening a pub, it will be called the Cock and Bull, every campaign has a Cock & Bull somewhere, usually the nicest place in town.

    Question Quick Question

    Erm I know I am a bit late, but I didnt have much time in the last month

    This is a great map Hoel, The trees are stunning and I'd like to know how you did the buildings. Are they completly handdrawn or did you use any filters on them?

    I assume you did the trees the way you did describe it in your January Challenge Map, and I am not sure that GIMP can do this but let me say it again, the trees are stunning

    I use GIMP for all my maps.

    The buildings are my own hand drawn elements that I resized.
    The burrows are made with bevel and texture overlay and the trees are as you say; same as in my Carlsborg map.
