    Very nice. I normally don't like pencil drawings that much, but with the inking you have done and then the color, this looks really nice.

    The pencil is just an underlayer to go by .. I left it partially visible so that you could see the progress ... once its completely done... there won't be a pencil layer to show... that's the idea anyway...

    Simply Beautiful! I almost prefer the WIPs of these sorts of maps to the finished product where you can see the sketches.

    Yea, I'm with Ravells. You work with enough computer art and it all begins to look the same - even the good stuff.

    Makes you appreciate pencil work and traditional mediums. Especially pencil, in my case personally, because its so expressive.

    Nice work. I can't wait to see the finished map. As for the Inn's name, what about...

    Dragon's Repose Inn
    Dragonskull Inn (simple but to the point)
    Draconian Tavern
    Inn of the Resting Dragon/Drakon/Draconian

    EDIT: Ignore my name suggestions. I missed your name for the Inn. Nice touch.
    Cheers,
    Tim
