Genblood on teh hils you overdid the amont of lines i think...

You want to know how you get the scoped out look that desrts have?? Inverting. Here me out for a second :-) If you use gradient fill to make a nice rounded hill it comes out like a half circle on a flat plane. You gausation blur it a bit and you have a nice hill... But if you invert that hill you end up with a nice scoped out of the land. you then position that dip over the side of a hill and use Multiply on layer blending it will scope the side of the hill out very nicely in a nice desurt like way. I pretty much used jus ta whole bunch of those when I made desurt dunes and that looks fab from that purspective (though texture and metal is somthing to argue over).

If you use that sort of technique here it will look better im sure, hell I'll even do one for you if you want to show you what I mean.

aGorm,

Thanks for the the information about the hills and stuff. I'm going to
use that style in my next map. Most likely it will be released in the
new map format.

I'm going to release this map this week if I finish it. An any new
ideas I'm going to wait for the new map format .
