I've seen Mibi's tutorial, just wondering if there are any other good ones out there.

I'm a bit short on time these days. And browsing google hasn't given me any good results.

thanks in advance, if you've got any good ideas.


oh shoot wish i would have seen this before you started on graphix, cause ive found a couple of good little tutlets

idk which part of the tutorial has mountains, but if you have photoshop, that tutorial should work fine for you.

Also, the tutorial is an attachment, which you may need to join the site to see. If not, then your in luck =D

and maybe look at some of these:

I havent been able to do them, but a couple of the 4 or 5 may work for you. You probably would need the height map one.

And again, if you cant see the links, then join, its a great site anyways. If you do join, drop me a pm, my account is bryguy.

its ok, I haven't done anything major. I'm just working out the basic layout of what the village graphics will look like.
Thanks for the links. I'll take a look at them.
