    Wip Yan WIP

    This is an update of my planet. I changed my planetary projection to an elliptical/Mollweide and made some changes to fit.
    The second jpg is a zoom of the area I've been working on. It includes the Angry Poultry continent, as well as 2 others.
    The third jpg is zoomed again to show detail of one small continent, this is about the zoom level where the map works best, although the nice thing about CC3 is that one map can function at many zoom levels.

    The map is all CC3, and the posted jpgs have all effects turned off. I'll add some effects in the final version.

    No, I don't use FT. It's all mouse-drawn.
    I just make a temporary circle as a guide, then delete it when I'm done.

    The creation of that term violates all established contradiction/abbreviation rules. Were it not for that, it'd be winning glory, but now imagine somebody reads COWMAP who isn't privvy to this info here? How should he figure out.

    So I'm afraid we can't have that. ;-)
    It was a good try though. :-)

    We need a name for the world and then for some dude who is handy with a pen / tablet to come up with some sassy looking fantasy logo for it. Thats one thing that Wizards always do very well.

    Actually that would make for a neat poll...
