    Post Better Hovels and Castles

    I going to be making a bunch of top down furnishings for printable battlemaps. For the most part these will be for my unnamed tower keep map, but I plan on building upon then and creating quite a palette of furnishings and interior pieces. Right now I am doing things in a 200 dpi scale, that should give plenty of detail yet not be too huge in memory. Also saving files as pngs with transparency so that they are easy to drop on to any old map.

    Starting off with some slat chairs I made -

    Amazing! I love how well the chair are built! I feel like I'm looking at top-down images in a catalogue or something!

    Repped!

    Oops I think my scale is wrong...D&D battlemaps are 1 inch squares? If so I have to up my resolution some.
