Some hand drawn maps
Quick and dirty

A micro tutorial

Great "micro-tut", mathuwm. This is obviously for Illustrator, right?

Hey, if you ever feel the inclination, I'd love you to post a bunch of Illustrator tutorials (either micro or full-blown)--I've been wanting to learn it for a long time, but have not yet taken the time. I'll bet others would be just as grateful as I, too! Just an idea.

Take care,

Illustrator yes

and I could post a Tut if somebody had somthing they had questions on

thanks

Nice! (Moved the art work to a Drawing Elements Thread)

I love the ruined castle walls. How did you do it?

Ravs

The ruined castle/keep was hand drawn on paper. I then took a digital picture of it (as I do not have a scanner at home). Next I edited the picture in Photoshop using lots of brightness/contrast adjustments, the un-sharp mask filter and a few color and texture layers.

This keep is located on one of the maps I posted before and so is the city.

I may also scan the original at work and get a high resolution picture to work with.
Which I think will turn out quite different.

I really like the ruined keep map as well.
