    More rep from me then, although I advice you to carefully read the message that came with the rep, my friend...

    Good point about the Gloomwood. I think what influenced me in this case was on AslanC's map, he had a similarly named forest,. When I made it dark and dreary, i got the comment that it wasn't supposed to be that dark and dreary.. that likely stayed with me subconsciously through this creation process. But, the client loved it and wanted no changes, so, I went with it.

    Fabulous work, once again. I really like the dunes in the satellite version of the map. I'll have to work on something like that when I get back to my own desert empire map. I also really like the distressing on the hand-drawn map, although I was hoping to see more scrawling based on the description!

    Yeah yeah, all my fault

    Excellent maps, you can really see that he is a fan of Conan in the generalities of the map.

    I would rep you but I did too recently for the Mining map.
