    Default [Award Winner] Step by Step workflow: Saventh-Yhi, City of the Seven Spears

    NOTE: All these material is Copyright of Paizo Publishing LLC

    Just found this forum and I'm posting this here to descrive its elaboration. I think some people may find interesting to see its process and also to hear a little about client-cartographer cartography.

    I'll dig up some of these images and start posting them on the weekend

    If you have any specific questions please do ask!

    I'm pretty green in these forums -and not a native english speaker- so please bear with me

    EDIT: Added the name and "north" sign.

    I really dig the style of this. It's awesome!

    here we go these are the first three drafts I made for the editor to choose a layout:
    00 PreDraft 01.jpg00 PreDraft 02.jpg00 PreDraft 03.jpg
    As you can relate with the final map, the chosen draft was #3. Many details were added to this draft after it was selected, then sent back again for approval before detailing it furter.

    There was some element mixig with the final draft, taking some of the elements I liked the most from the first two drafts and mixing it into the final and more detailed draft.

    BTW, I suppose is OK to post this in here since I feel this is more a step by step development other than a tutorial... I suck at explaining
