I see it's going to be tough and tougher to get something placed in this month's competition.
December 2011 Entry - Minduriel and the Dragon
I'll take an unusual approach for this map, which is - I think- more an illustration with descriptions of places.
I read a book on Japanese history a few weeks ago which included a chapter on the various stages of Japanese art. Inspired by old Japanese paintings this map is a mixture of Japanese and Elvish elements (mainly the labels). The lines are a little bit thicker than in actual old paintings.

nice, I was wondering if you would add colours
Inspired by old Japanese paintings you say? I'm not buying it! You meant 60s Japanese stop-animation movies, right? Go-ji-ra!

The outline is too heavy, yes. And the colours too strong.
For the dragon I used several images as inspiration and combined.
I toned down the colours and added some effects. The labels for hero, dragon and places are in Tengwar.

Ah, now it definitely looks older, yes.
That is looking fantastic, Sap!!!
