Thread: Commission : Iceland friends trip

    Map Commission : Iceland friends trip

    Hello cartographers,

    This is a commission map I was working on these past days, (that's why I jumped in the Nov-Dec challenge so lately)

    This is a gift for Christmas, I was asked to map a trip four friends did back in 2016 around Iceland with a motorhome.

    I deleted the name of the person at the bottom right under the title, rather badly as you can consider my digital skills

    Traditionnal work: ink and color pencil, A3 on Canson 160g.

    This is lovely work, and it'll make a gorgeous Christmas pressie. Well done!

    Nice. The only thing I miss are more place names ... particularly the žingvellir.

    Servus,

    Servus,
    Thank you. The lack of place names is because of the commission: I had a list of places they wanted on the map (and only these one) - I guess it is places where they do have good memories (maybe žingvellir is not one of them )

    Iceland is such an interesting territory. Nice map, it gives me some very good memories of the time I spent there. Seems your friend didn't make the same trip as me, though.

    The same remark than Mark Oliva, but understable due to the list you had. I love this map! Remind me of my own trip in Iceland

    Looks great! I enjoy all the little drawn-in details.

    Thank you very much!

    I will think about it on my next maps, about how many names should be cool to have on a regional map.

    Thank you for your feedback.

    This is a very lovely map and a gorgeous gift. I quite like the discret circles you draw around the points of interest, it's a nice touch!

    Really cool, Antoine ! Your real or 'semi' real place maps are always a delight
