NaGaDeMon 2017 #9 - The Characters

Here's where we currently stand. Going with a neo-noir theme, I've generally drawn the images from the 1940s, with a few from the 30s, and 50s, and a couple of later images that were taken with that era as their inspiration. The thing about the era is that most of the people in Film Noir are white, with the males being slit into debonair types or hard boiled detectives, while the females are attractive dames and femme fatales. I've deliberately made sure to counterbalance this with a range of images of non-white characters in the mix.

Now I just need to make duplicates of these images depicting the characters in prison.

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 7)

A working computer and scanner...that means it is time to get back to work on the geomorph sequence. A lot of the discussion in this set of tutorials has been focused around square geomorphs. They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 1)

After numerous requests to get back to map tutorials, it's time to start our new series. This time focusing on the concept of geomorphs, modular map fragments that can be mixed and matched. We'll start with a couple of theoretical tutorials before sinking into a few more practical posts. I'm predicting a dozen or so posts in this sequence, but let's see how long it lasts.
