My first battlemap ever, drawn pixel by pixel [50x50]

First battlemap I have ever finished. I am writing my own campaign, the party lands in a gladiator city, and I spent a week hunting for a colosseum I could run. Everything I found was an empty oval with sand in it. I wanted the arena on a day with no games, rented out to traders, and I wanted the floor underneath it too. Nobody had drawn that, so I did.

Three weeks of evenings, and most of that went into the tiers.

The building is **50x50**. On this sheet the sand belongs to the market: stalls, tables and a fountain standing where people bleed on the other days. The same building comes in six lights, from morning to a night dark enough to fight in. The hypogeum sits under it as a second sheet inside the same walls, and there is a swept version if you want the sand clear for a duel. Evening and night also run as an eight second loop where the fires, the smoke and the awnings move and the tokens stay where you put them.

**128 px per square, 6400x6400**, grid baked in. Free to use at your table. The whole set is free, name your own price: [https://thet1me.itch.io/arena-battlemaps](https://thet1me.itch.io/arena-battlemaps)


Three things I want beaten up:

* The tiers. The rows climb about forty feet to the outer wall and they still read flat to me.
* The middle of the sand. Wide and open, so the stalls end up carrying all the cover in a fight.
* The cold stone against the warm sand. I have stared at it too long to judge whether it holds.

This is the first building of a district. The barracks with their training yard, the fighters' tavern and a noble's villa come next in the same scale and the same palette, so they stand in one city.

Tell me what you would change first, and skip the polite part.
