I'm creating a map and also I wan't to try design it myself, I took the time to look how works the tools, but the problem is I don't know what to do, I know how but not what.
So basically I ask for examples to get inspiration about:
  • Dungeon (Prison).
  • Main Halls (inside).
  • Mine or a place in construction.
  • Library.
  • Maybe a natural evoriment but that is easy to get.
I tried to find them myself and I found some, but they are not convincing me 100% and I don't think they were enough and its hard searching, can you help me pls?

Another one has an ideas?
Hm, it depends on what do you want to see. Dungeons could differ from each other on each custom map…
But If you want to create some elven-styled map, you can look inspiration through that music & ambience video:

PS: Recently I've done some dungeon map for my "Call of the Swarm" campaign, it isn't looking good (IMO), but you may found those screenshots useful.

I will take my time to watch the video, because is too long; regarding your pictures, too much labyrinth for what I wanna do, but I liked the last image.
