Laer Ia'Bor finished!

[LonewandererD]

Finally, this map is complete, and with my sanity still intact (or at least that’s what the voices tell me).

This is Laer Ia'Bor, or White Rock City in English, the commanding city of the Dominion of the Elders of Sorres and the educational and intellectual centre of the Dal lands. The entire map was made from scratch in Photoshop and it took me a little over two months, I’m especially proud of this map because it is the first map where it was created using mostly my own techniques, I would still like give a thanks to Ascension for his town tut that I used to build up the bases of my buildings before adding extra layer effects, and Yander whose insignia tut I used here. For your convenience I have translated this map into English but I do have the map written in Dal if anyone is interested.

I didn’t really have a solid plan going into this map, just a general ideas and a hell of a lot of experimenting. Basically I just wanted a very detail city and I did my best to get that, not all the details turned out how I wanted them but what can you do? I’m very pleased with how this map turned out but I don’t think I’ll be attempting something this in-depth again anytime soon; at least not at this scale. Also, I’ve put a small, very small, thing in here that sort of pays homage to the guild and would probably be where I would be living in this city, see if you can find it .

And now, I’m moving onto my next insane adventure!
