Working on the FF's Baxter building...yep...all five floors plus roof. Adding counters for Red and Yellow that are FF gear (thing's barbells, visaphone, one-shot raygun, etc)
Check it out (and I am heading the right way with this??)

Awesome -- so clean -- how are you drawing it?
Really nifty kean! Looks great. I think you're right on track for a proper Baxter Buildingish look.

Nice job! It's an ambitious project but it looks like you got the skills to do it.

Nicely done!
As the others have said, nice work... Are you going to let us get our greedy hands on it? ;)

That's the deal....
It's ...it's ...well, FANTASTIC! Really nice work. I like how your vehicles look to scale (I hate the WizKids maps lack of attention to scale). I can't wait to get my hands on this map. Its got wide open spaces, narrow halls and what looks like an elevator! Very cool.
When will you have it finished? This looks great!

That looks awesome! Nice job. It has to be one of the best maps I have ever seen. It looks clear, unlike some other fan-made maps (which also look good but seem hard to play on).

..............................(mouth open, speechless).
To quote Thanos from Marvel vs. DC #4: "It's the most beutiful thing I've ever seen".
Okay, it's very, very, very good, but I might have over dramatized it's coolness. But I still love every bit about those maps! Excellent job and keep 'em coming!

Well, I got some work to do.....I am thinking of going steady and seeing what rule goodies are offered with the New Official Wizkids maps before release....I also have to chop it up so it can printed on a home PC printer. Suggestions are to print, trim, and spray glue onto foam-board.....Price: free, of course!

Great work on the BB! My friend did a whole map of the level with the Negative Zone room.

...oh...and after mounting on foam board, try positioning the five levels and roof on top of each other -seperated by tape and pencil columns at the corners or some such - for a real Battle Royale!
That's the Dream!

That is so much better than the Wiz-kids maps. (Or at least the ones in the starters and Adventure kits, I didn't have a chance to see the new ones) It's so clean. What did you use to draw it? Thanks in advance for letting all of us use it!

Drawn: Paint-shop pro v.5.
Best trick: keep two copies open. Use Effects/Drop Shadow on one and cut and paste from the 'clean' copy to trim and clean the shadows - makes the map have a little more depth.
Wow! Wizkids maps out already - may have to increase efforts...
Question: How should I get these up for download? Should i break them into little printable chunks for re-assembly? Advice?

I think that depending on everyones connection speed, it would be best to offer both, or zip all the pictures up into one file. I would also be interested in this (since I am a big FF fan) :)

Wow very nice maps!!!
to answer your question about a format for sending people the maps:
I prefer to get each level as one pieces of artwork (not cut up). JPEG format is pretty small and you could ZIP the files to make them even smaller.
I plan on printing the maps on a large printer and reasembling each level isn't fun.
Thanks!

You also have to remember that the maps would have to be cut up for each level since it will not fit on a normal page by the look of it.
I vote for a large file I can have printed on a plotter and laminated. If others want to print this on their home printer, fine, make a version available for them to do that, but don't make us all cut out pieces of paper and paste things down if we don't want to :)

OOooo! I see how you are Biohaz! :grin: If I had access to something like that I would as well. Maybe I would take the file down to the local Kinkos :)
Thats what I aim to do ;)
