Artist's Comments
Made these for developing my D&D campaign.
INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Extract the brush file to \Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Presets\Brushes 2. Extract the style file to \Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Presets\Styles 3. Set your grid to every 20 pixels, with 2 subdivisions (or 10 pixels, with 1 subdivision) (Edit => Preferences => Guides, Grids and Slices). 4. Load the brush and the styles (use the tiny arrows at the top right of the corresponding boxes) 5. Turn on the grid (View => Show => Grid) 6. Make sure snap-to-grid is turned on. (View => Snap To => Grid) 7. Paint (carefully, don't spam it) on a NEW, BLANK LAYER with the square brush you loaded, using any colour, but 100% opacity. 8. Apply one of the layer styles to the new layer. 9. If the grid appears incorrectly, right-click on the layer, go to Blending Options, then to Pattern Overlay, and click the "Snap to Origin" button. (IF YOU DON'T WANT TO PAINT CORNERED ROOMS, IGNORE THE STEPS INVOLVING THE GRID, AND USE ANY BRUSH YOU LIKE, RATHER THAN THE SQUARE ONE) |

 reports, 1d 9h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

I'd use it if I could be bothered to use maps for my dungeons, and if I actually had a working copy of Photoshop.
If you need to use it and can but can't, YOU WILL BE DESTROYED!

Grammar time!
Now I wish I know how to turn my B&W maps into spectacular pieces with texture, tan gradients, wider yet clearcut borders and all... like yours Keilious.
Any tip?
Basically, find yourself some grunge brushes, then work them on in seperate layers. Mess around with blending styles between them, but stick to mostly greyscale.
Finally, apply a "colour balance layer" and tweak until you achieve the desired effect. Appart from that... a stroke blending style for the white bordery thing...
Oh! And finally, create a layer on the very top, fill it with white, set its fill to 0%, add a pattern overlay and choose a pattern from the artist's material's set, and set it to overlay or similar.
That should get an effect roughly like what I got there.
(I made that image yonks ago, but this is the best I remember of how to get to that stage)
Don't hesitate to ask if you need any more help.
