Heh :-). They do have a unique look to them indeed. I like that!

That's great. I think that variation is one of the requirements to make a good
looking map.
BTW., once you are happy with your work (or even before), feel free to commit
your source images (the ones with layers) to the gfx CVS. (See
http://adonthell.berlios.de/doc/index.php/Graphics:Conventions#The_Adonthell_data_CVS).
That way they will be preserved for the future. (I remember you once made
animated water tiles and a cliff face in the v0.4 resolution, but they appear
to be lost).

I intend to use this approach for more of my graphics. I already have
scans of outlines for other plant-life like flowers, bushes and
mushrooms. From relatively few drawings I can scale, rotate, flip and
colour them to produce several objects. Those in turn can then be
combined to create more complex things.
Hope you like them. As always any feedback would be much appreciated!

Hi all,
Just wanted to let you know I've started making some new map graphics.
Until I know the ins and outs of the current engine I can't do too
much, but I've made a start on some small trees and other plant-
life that I can later combine to make forest textures as well as
individual map objects to decorate areas.
Here's a little preview:

Let me know what you think!
