Finally finished all the initial tile pieces I've been working on. Mostly based on DMG's 2.5d tile set. These are 3"x3" offset by half an inch in each direction. I did a number of things differently that made it easier for me. Namely the use of the cutting table, using a foam stamp instead of a sponge, and the order of what I painted. I went way more hap-hazard with the stamp for what I think is a more deteriorated look. Enjoy! www.dropbox.com/sc/3ulk895xqp5miin/ofuHS6dufc

Cool! My first reaction was "Wow", I like that distressed look, I'd probably throw bits of lichen around, and rubble piles, maybe some of Grym's styrofoam bead mushrooms...

Nice set! The paint job really achieves that old, damp dungeon look. Thanks for sharing.

I want to add more floral details, but I'm not sure how. They'd just be specks here and there, nothing major. I don't recall any tutorials on lichen and such.

AJ's Lichen Tutorial. 1: Find a tree 2: Does it have lichen or moss growing on the bark? If yes, pinch some off it. 3: put the lichen or moss on your dungeon tile. 4: Profit!

Aside from AJ's suggestion to use actual Lichen or Moss (which sometimes has the wrong effect on the table, since it looks more like shrubbery or overgrowth), you can get some subdued, pale shades of green, mix in a little white (if desired...lichen and moss tend to be subtle or very pale green hues), and then stiple it in places it might grow (walls, which are not always represented well enough for them in the 2.5D method. Otherwise, corners and cracks on a tile could work). Don't go overboard with stipling unless you want to create a moss carpet effect. The stipling should only take place along the edges of cracks really...unless no one has walked your stoney dungeon floors in ages...
If you want to add texture, I have had success using a finer grade of sand glued in a thin layer where you want to put the lichen/moss. Also, by shifting the shade of green a bit for a second paint layer, you can create the illusion of depth and texture simply by stipling the second shade over the first.
Hope that helps.

when you say floral, do you mean flowers or generic plant growth

I am new to the game and bought the Pathfinder Bestiary Boxes. The dragons were a gift from my wife for my birthday a couple years ago. They're from D&D's collector edition.
