Roleplaying
Working with my different Operation:Fallen Reich projects, I early realized I needed some authentic looking stamps to place on passports and other official documents, to make the adventure handouts look even better. Getting handouts that almost smells like vintage documents really enhance the gaming experience, specially in games that are more centered around role playing than pure combat.

I needed a flag for a logo for some handouts. The logo was found on Wikimedia, but wasn’t legal to use so I needed to make the flag that was on it. The logo is for the P&O Steam Navigation Company, so we’re still in the pulp era, Operation: Fallen Reich.
I needed some maps, or photographs of some cool locations during the period just before world war II, in Britain. That is rather hard to come by I think, so I decided to use some naughty tricks, and Google Maps
So, are you all eager to see the coach soon? So am I, but I still have some items to create first.

This sounds rather stupid don’t you say, making a hole in the ground, but that is just what we will do today. I’m working on some side tiles for The Neverending Docks, which can be used for the natural lakeside tiles.
I have done crates several times here, with FilterForge, using textures and a mix between those, and I have used the available crates a lot. I have always admired a crate done by Alynnalizza, so I decided to take a hit on making a FilterForge filter that could make something like that.
Today we will do something really awesome cool. Do you remember when we made some swamp bogs? Now, when I’ve decided I’ve need some natural water edges and not only stone paved docks for The Neverending Docks, I realized that I need water edges that can tile, for 1, 3 and 6 inches wide map pieces. I tried to make this manually, but failed hard, so them when I thought of a solution, I remembered goo old ImageSynth, so here is the How to using ImageSynth and OmniGraffle.
Making docks, I need boats. And I have some boats and canoes from before, but I feel I need some new boats, and this is what I will make today.
I’ve been making some tiles for The Neverending Docks, but mostly I’ve been using stuff that I’ve already have made, just using them in other situations.
But, I’ve also done some fun new things, and I will just show off a few here.

So, I’ve been using the quills made by Supercaptain a lot for my merchant desks, so I just stumbled upon a nice feather picture at CGTextures, and though, I could make some new quills.
