WIP Concept Work 1 - Project Fenris - Tile Bases (Patreon)
Content
Hey folks,
If you have not heard I have started to plan out a new venture! Printable tiles. I posted this morning on Twitter about the idea and the more I think about it the more I really want to try and do it.
The Project
I will be working to create a basic dungeon tile set with around a few hundred tiles to be put up on DrivethruRPG.
The tiles will be on a 6x6'' scale, this will mean they will all snap together with ease and without any crazy tile shapes. I will make sure to include lower res images of the tiles for use in VTT's like Roll20.
WIP so far.
So far I have started to create the basic foundations for the pack.
I started with a very simple wall, I made sure it as easy to repeat and add to, along with trying to make sure it did not look to plain.
I cant see see it was far to simple and it needed to be more.... ornate? Well, at the very least more interesting.
So, I added in some bumps and engravings, along with the early attempts of some wall assets like braziers and drapes to litter over the tiles.
Already, I think this is a good step in the right direction. As I create more tiles I will add in more wall assets to give a greater variation in the tiles.
Next, I wanted to keep the idea of simple textures, so I created a very plain stone floor. It uses the same techniques I used in Cryptic Corridors and I like the idea of mixing hand drawing and textures to create what I think is a pretty fun style.
After making the basic floor I wanted to add in that texture feel. I started with a very light brush of dirt and rubble, followed by a more embedded but still faint texture of the same dirt and rubble.
So far I think Project Fenris is going well, it is very very early doors and I know it will take me some time to get all the tiles created.
I hope you follow my progress and leave comments and suggestions on what path I should take with this pretty new and exciting project for Chibbin Grove.
PS - Dont worry I will make sure to leave time to work on more free maps and the Roll20 series
