    Wip Pseudo-Germania (training map)

    Title is... well, the best I could think of. :p

    This here started out as the concept for a map request, but since the "client" has never reacted to emails or forum messages I might as well do this as a training map.

    The idea was a region geographically roughly resembling Roman-era Germany, no labels or signs of civilization.

    For the preliminary rivers I've used a hard round brush set to erase with a pressure-sensitive stylus (haven't worked with pressure sensitivity before, so this is again something new for me ).

    Are you going to use Ptolemy's Geography maps for model and sources?

    Those rivers though, they are going to be great. Of course I always love that style so who am I to tell, but I like the detail put into them in conjunction.

    Sorry guys, had to put this on the backburner as I was commissioned for two B&W maps.

    I really like the white on blue colors.
    Those rivers are really really sexy

    The rivers do look nice, but they seem to meander in a peculiar fashion. They seem to have a preference for moving straight east or west.

    Okay, with the commission finished I did a small amount of linework on the map today before going back to Pillars of Eternity...

    Aaaaand I have to put this on the back burner again. Girlfriend unexpectedly will be without a job come the end of May, so I'm throwing myself at comissions in the meantime to create a bit of a financial buffer. *sigh*

    Found a few minutes for my own stuff between commissions. Did some more line work on the piece.

    Your linework is excellent. Glad you keep working on this (even occasionally).
