I have an opportunity at a certain job that I really want because it I believe might include both making the tiles, and mapping. And although I would rather just do the mapping because I rly do love to make maps, it would help if I could make my own tile sheets.

But does anyone know any information on tile sheet making?

SO far, i want the job, but I haven't got a clue where to start. Sort of. The thing is, I'm willing to learn, I really am.

The first thing I could make to help out is an air ship. And that's kinda tough to start with, but I know if I can make some tiles for the front and back, then I would only need a single line of tiles in the middle to where they could extend the ship however large the mappers would need.

However, it's MAKING them, (not arranging them) that I need to learn how to do. Really I could probably struggle with making an the airship tiles needed, but in terms of resolution and sizing, I suppose i would need to check out the game itself I'll be making tiles for.

So far I know i can use photoshop to do the tile making, but it's still sizing that gets me. I don't know if I need to find out the pixel resolution of the game itself, and then work at a higher resolution before I zoom out to apply it to a tile sheet-

Frankly, I don't know where and how to begin other than that I need to begin. I've been spending some time looking around online for tile sheet making tutorials, but sadly there won't be any for the game I want to contribute to since it's a custom game engine, but I'll try my best.

If anyone has any good tips, or knows where I can find a good tutorial, it'd be much appretiated.
