[Award Winner] Desert pools
So I was doodling around in Photoshop with no goal in mind...and my doodling produced the "map" below. I'm thinking it's part of a sandy desert currently flooded by an unexpected rainfall. My question is, does it work for you? As in, do you also see a sand dune desert with pools of water?
Yep, works for me at least.
Cool idea btw.
Pretty much the first thing that came to mind when I saw it was sand and water.

Works for me...put in some fields and irrigation ditches, some paths and carts and tents and you've got a proper flooded Nile valley.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Wow! Great link, Redrobes! There really are some amazing places on this earthOriginally Posted by Redrobes
Truly an amazing display. Those mountain brushes are really nice.
awesome brushes! truly helpful!
Beginings of a very nice shaded relief mountain style there. Can you remember how you got to this result?
Thanks for the replies people. I don't think I'll do anything more with this particular map, since it's obviously the middle of nowhere and I don't have any idea what to do with it.
@Ravells: Yes, and I have a brush and layer style saved for it. It does make for some nice sand dunes, and decent mountains as well with some adjustment. Let me know if you want them.
