    Very nice use of drawing and colour. Very pleasing and not overprocessed.

    If I may ask, what do you sketch with? What do you use painter for?

    Thanks for the compliments! It was fun to draw and try to move the style of the cave maps on to an outdoor setting. I can already see a few things I want to try next time. We'll have to see how it goes.

    @Neonknight: I'm sure I wouldn't call it a work of art from beginning to end. The beginning sketches were really ropey

    @Sigurd, I used Gimp for the whole map. I sketched with a 5px brush for the first shots and then used a new layer to ink carefully over the top (2-3px Ink brush in Gimp). All in Gimp with a Wacom Graphire4 A6 tablet.

    Really, really nice.

    I have to admit to having some doubts abou this at first. I think I just couldn't quite see where you were going, but the end result is great, and it doesn't get any better than pirates anyway!

    After a specific request, here is a png of the ship with and without anchors. Note the white background is actually transparent.

    If anyone else wants an element of this map, please say and I'll put together a version.

    Wow. Very nice. I really liked the hand drawn style and the soft matted colours!
