    Default Nice time lapse video of 3d illustrator map

    You can find it here. Gives a very good idea as to how to go about doing these things. Great map too.

    Found at Cartotalk.

    great post Rav - thats an amazing video. I don't know much about illustrator - but it's such a powerful tool. Like the original image he works from looks like a Google satellite overhead view, but he somehow adds perspective to it. so much to learn....

    thanks RJ. I *really* like what you've done with your signature and the risk boards.

    Wow. I'm always amazed watching people who really know what they are doing. Great find Rav

    Even if I am correct, I would still advise you to follow your heart. This whole Cartographers Guild thing, it seems to me, is more about passion and skill and learning new techniques than it is about definitions and rules.

    That's very cool. I'm sure I've seen his style here before. Didn't he come over here and post a time lapse of an adventure park map?

    I'm eternally amazed by anyone who can get good results out of illustrator.
