    Default Slums

    One block of slums based on an image captured from Google Earth in Mahim, India. Created in Maptools, one with roofs, one with roofs removed. The images are a bit small since Maptools doesn't export an entire map, only a screenshot so I included 2 detail shots.

    Keep making more slums...we don't have enough of them (so to speak)!

    In gaming terms slums are the most exciting places so I think it would be great to have a 'slum specialist' on board!

    lol, the trick really is to use overlays for cracks and the like in the background. Slums should look worn out.
    All maps created in Maptools unless noted otherwise.
