Thanks Arsheesh, I have done linework before for the castle.. But I never colored it, so this is more of a test for that I guess.
Very nice, especially for your first ever hand drawn map eViLe!

Yeah very good. The only thing I would prefer is just a little more oomph color wise. Here's what i got after just fooling around for 5 mins.
Cheers, Julien

I guess thats a bit more my fault I tend to be a dark person.
Nice Lukc!
Yes, as winter approaches I turn more and more pale.
Hmm... actually Lukc, I think you might be on to something here. I was thinking along the lines of 4 maps of the seasons, specifically, what a place looks like during different times of the year. Specifically, a battlemap "for sale" product that gives alternates of the same map. For that matter, this might make a really cool challenge.. such a map would basically stay the same, but there would be some big color shifts along seasonal lines if in a temperate earth like climate....
BTW, Evile, that's a really nice map you got there...

Hmm ... JF, that mike actually make an interesting challenge, I agree. Depending on the climate, the winter map in particular might be very different, since snow tends to wipe out a lot of features - it might actually require a re-draw of the base map. Late autumn would require quite a few bare trees, while the summer and spring versions could use similar bases ... I'm visualising a work flow with a base terrain layer for rock and dirt, a layer for grass areas, a layer for tree-trunks and bushes (sans leaves), a foliage layer, and a snow layer ... if there was water, then there should be at least a water and ice layer, and possibly a summer water layer for reduced water-flow if the region is dry in summers ...
If it's a "for sale" battle-map, there should probably also be variant terrain effects - snow in winter, mud in autumn (or spring) ... I'd be interested to see what comes up! Heck, it might be a fun challenge for me too!
Yea lukc, as you are talking, i am thinking about how a cliff and waterfall style Battlemap would look over 4 different seasons....ooooohhhh
