    Heya. Thanks for the reply. No slight intended at all and I was totally going off of memory...a mental note I thought I had made to myself. Now I'm embarassed. Will have a look through Critical Locations and my Star Wars books (you did a some/all of the ship maps, no?) tonight to refresh myself on your maps!

    BTW, the poster maps for sale on your site look awesome. Do you plan on doing more products? Modern/sci-fi map tiles like the Galaxy Tiles set Wizards put out for Star Wars would be high on my list of purchases. I have no idea how well they sell...guessing not that well since Wizards only did one.

    Hi all,
    Little more on the chapel. Reckon it could look a lot better but I haven't had any time at all to work on mapping this week thanks to real-world work. Spent about an hour on this tonight. Not sure how much further I'll take these but I'll probably try to get all of the details in there at least. Still looking for any advice you might have for creating a realistic-ish carpet texture...at a loss there.

    I've got a few non-remake tactical maps to do for this adventure as well. Might or might not take them beyond the sketch level...

    I've got a real soft spot for modern maps, and yours are beautiful and functional. I don't suppose you'd consider posting a few working notes on getting a modern-style map to turn out so nicely.

    Thanks for saying so. Haven't had a chance to finish these experiments but I did like where they were going. Might still get them finished...if I ever get time. In the meantime, I did post some of the things I had learned in response to a question in the "how to" forum here. That sort of what you were looking for?

    I agree. In my opinion, the maps of Christopher West was the best feature Dungeon/Polyhedron. Awesome stuff

    I don't think it sold well enough for Wizards' tastes. They actually contracted a second set of Galaxy Tiles artwork from me, but they canceled the product before publishing it. I got paid nonetheless, but was sad that the work on the second set never saw the light of day.

    I am publishing a set of my own, though, at Gen Con this year. They'll go for sale on my website shortly thereafter. You can read more about them and view the covers here: http://www.mapsofmastery.com/phpBB3/....php?f=4&t=168

    I've also got another Kickstarter-based pre-order going on now, for my Forsaken Lands II poster maps, and have added the terrain cards to the list of rewards that people can choose from if they pledge enough for multiple items. (It's a good way to get the maps and tiles with free shipping.) That can be found here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...-ii-poster-map
