Tilesets and Graphics / Lonesome Tileset [ASCII, Square, 20x20]

Hi, everyone. Just wanted to share with you all my first tileset and give a little back to the community that I've gotten so much from.
I've always liked simple tilesets that beautify and clarify the ASCII look, and I think the gold standard of that is Lowright's wonderful Grim Fortress. It's been my stand-by for a long time. The only downside for me was its 12x12 size, so I set out to scale it up to 20x20.
This set is mainly based on Anikki's 20x20 tileset, which in turn is based off the work of Tocky and Plac1d. I used Lowright's low-opacity fill technique on certain ground tiles to wash out some of the contrast and improve readability. I swapped out some of the specialty tiles for my own creations, fancied up the font ever so slightly, and recreated the dwarf tiles to resemble those poor fools of Grim Fortress. Lastly, I called upon my drab New England sensibility to throw together a new color palette. I understand such muted tones aren't everyone's cup of tea, so I'll include the Grim Fortress palette, modified from Lee's Natural Color Scheme, both of which I've enjoyed for many hours.
Hopefully, all credit for this makes it where it's due. Thanks for your time, and enjoy.
