The continent of Vaeriel

[Dain]

Thanks for the kind words

I really like the mountains and terrain style, clean and clear; in fact I have been thinking about a similar style for my own map. How did you get this effect, it looks like they've been hand drawn with a tablet?

They're all hand drawn, indeed. I used to use PS brushes but I now much prefer drawing everything by hand. It makes everything more unique, I guess. I'm currently using Wacom Intuos 3

Fantastic mountains The trees look a little big… A matter of taste, but personally I'd shrink them, or make blob forest (or whatever to call them; not individual trees I mean ), which I think could fit better with this style.

I'm still thinking about that actually. I've done both and each one has its inner added value and faults. We'll see if I can find a solution that fits well with the rest of the map.

Well, looks very promising to me! I Haven't much to add that hasn't already been said. Do you intend to finish it in one week? Or will we see some italian influences ?

Well, I won't be able to finish it up before moving. It's gonna be my December private study, I guess

Yep, those moutains are superb. Remind me a lot of some of the mountains that Diamond did (and never uses ).

Did he? Humm, must have a look at it then. Do you remember in which topic it was?
