Will do, but I don't anticipate any problems. You did the bulk of it already.
I'm curious about things like the stone path... is that a special brush that allows you to draw the path like painting it on? Is that all provided with Gimp or a custom item? How about all the other assets; where do they come from?
Do I NEED to get Gimp someday soon? LOL
For this map I used a photoshop plugin, but yes basically the way it works it is just a bunch of custom brushes that lets you paint, paths, grasses, rivers, hils, etc...
The reason I recommended gimp to you is because that is the closest thing you can get to photoshop that is free, so if you take some time to learn it you will be able to create maps that look just as good. There are tons of tutorial videos on GIMP on youtube so if you ever get stuck you can always find a tutorial video
There might even be some custom plugins for GIMP for map creations like this, but I dont know I have not looked into it.
One can create custom brushes in Photo Pos Pro as well, but I have not delved into customizations.
Software has become very versatile and powerful in the past few years. My problem is that I have far too many interests and not enough time to pursue them all. That's why I look for ready-made solutions. The idea of plug-ins is what I would be interested in. One of these days I hope to take a closer look into where Gimp has gone and if I should switch over. Thanks for all your help and advice.
