    I think it's one of the most beautifully understated maps I have ever seen. What is interesting is that you have managed to create such a stunning map by using only 1 type of tree icon. Bravo. This map is a masterclass in simplicity, superb use of colour, composition and line weight.

    I like it because it shows that CC3 CAN make beautiful maps.

    You sir have inspired me. Duly repped!

    These are some of the nicest maps that I have seen with CC3, and the best thing is that they don't look like generic CC3 maps. These look like they were hand done.

    Lovely map Bohunk. I think it shows great artistic skill and grasp of subtlety of colour and lines. I think its really cool and nicely put together. I also liked your names fro towns and things. They just struck a chord with me.

    Absolutely agree, and most definitely repped!

    I just wanted to post my final version of this map, (unless someone finds a ridiculous error of course!) The actual version is 20+ meg so this a smaller version. I decided to stay away from borders right now, I think it looks better without.

    I wanted to thank those that have helped and complimented me.

    That Ystraad map is just lovely. Hard to believe that CC3 made that.
