looks great you got a better brown than me - I went to light... lol... I wondered - how did you make the bricks? The squares on the ground - are they 1 inch?
That is so cool.

tilt-The squares on the ground are one inch, and were scored into one inch thick foam insulation (with a pencil). The bricks were done with a process I've been using for a couple years. I bought some cheap foam-core board at the Dollar store (because the paper peals off easier). I peal the paper off one of the sides (for really sticky paper, this involves the careful use of warm water). Then I use a stamping tool, made from an old paint brush. Take a brush, pull out all of the bristles, use needle-nose pliers to make a brick shape out of the metal part. Each brick was stamped individually.
Here's an update! Got one layer of dry-brushing done, to pull out the highlights. Some of the tiles have been painted to create more variation. Next is more highlighting, washes and painting the individual bricks.

I finally finished! Sorry that some of the pics are blurry. Most of the final process involved Ink washes (to bring out the shadows), dry-brushing (for highlights), and painting the power monoliths.

Assuming I stick with fantasy cartography, I'd like to become a World Builder, laying out not only a realistic topography, but also the geopolitical boundaries and at least rough descriptions of the countries and societies.
Most Awesome!!! Well done!
