I did the terrain in Photoshop using tutorials found here from Zaramis' "Relatively Realistic Mountains" and Pasis' "Rising up the Mountains in Photoshop" tutorials. Once I was happy with the terrain, I imported it into Fractal Mapper 8.0. From there, I started creating the fortresses on the islands in the north and the little settlement just north of there. I then started running some roads and placing buildings and the aqueduct system in the southern sector. I then added in the west and east sides. Once I was happy with all the buildings and roads, I added a layer of shadow. I finished it off with the directional cartouche [garnered from CC3] and made a map scale.

I'm glad you like it!
