Thanks for the encouragement:) <br /><br />I know what you mean about "caves", as they can be a little boring. I wanted to try to make all my areas have a little more to them and to try to make even the normal more exciting to walk through.<br /><br />In this case, I used some custom tiles (RWS I believe) for the bridge, but just played around with the different standard textures available for the walls, ceilings and floors. Then I looked for a way to add different lighting (cave plant life) and played around with it to get the bright and dark shadowy areas within the scene.<br /><br />I hope to be able to make most cave scenes more interesting in this way. I am trying to learn from what others have done with areas, with the likes of Hoegbo, Kamal and Eguintir.<br /><br />Thanks again for the post, as every post does help encourage me. :)<br /><br />Lance.Lance Botelle (Bard of Althéa)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16124192098553066324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776163819760508132.post-73003504554602855482012-09-05T06:27:56.142+01:002012-09-05T06:27:56.142+01:00Nice screens, Lance!

Furthermore, there are 8 of these lamps, each of which burns rather brightly - and may account for what appears to be bright.<br /><br />EDIT: I have added a single normal torch screenshot for comparison.<br /><br />Lance.<br />Lance Botelle (Bard of Althéa)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16124192098553066324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776163819760508132.post-17467470739965005932012-09-01T01:51:54.910+01:002012-09-01T01:51:54.910+01:00That area is quite bright, is it magical light?That area is quite bright, is it magical light?Kamalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17637115231105776944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776163819760508132.post-7443277674492046162012-08-29T15:38:04.122+01:002012-08-29T15:38:04.122+01:00Hi Kamal,
