    Default Pernith WIP (My first regional map)

    Greetings everyone, I have been lurking here for some time now and thought I would show a map that I have been working on using Paint Shop Pro XI.

    I started with wilbur and generated this texture:

    Then brought it into PSP and created my tree and mountain/hill areas after making it flat. I toyed with a realistic style, but for my campaign the hand drawn effect would work best:

    using the java program "mapmaking" found here on the forums, I switched my tree mask for better rendered trees and adjusted my mountain brush.

    Well that's great so far!

    I still can't do much myself, so I can't really give any usable input...

    I'd love to see this when it's done.

    Very nice. It seems like a bit of wasted effort to generate all that nice terrain and then not use it but you ended up with a nice landmass. I really like the tree and mountain effects as well. The only thing I can offer is that the trees seem a little large for your hex grid. Nice work
