Hi! I found this forum while looking for tutorials on techniques for making relief-map-style mountains in Photoshop. Like many people here, I started making maps of places real and imagined when I was a kid. My interest was revived recently when my kids started showing interest in fantasy RPGs, and so I started playing around with mapmaking on the computer. I tried AutoRealm, but wanted something more artistic. My most recent effort, still a work in process, was created with GIMP 2.6.10.
