Here's an update. I tried to make the drylands look a little more barren, and like most places, there are varying levels of desert. I also worked on the Jungle, and the labels (Still not happy with them). I will do some more over the weekend, but I won't have internet access for most of the weekend.
That map looks much better. I like the font you are using for the Jungles of Akothi versus the archaic font. Also, its much easier to tell where the desert is now. It looks like you've filled in and muted the colors in the Jungles of Akothi--good work. I'm curious to see the rest of the map when done.
As always, i really love your map. It's just a style I really dig...again. I really hope you will do a in-detail tutorial (you work with Photoshop, right?)...
Great work!
I'm trapped in Darkness,
Still I reach out for the Stars
I will post some instructions as soon as I get this finished. It's pretty basic stuff in Photoshop. The key is using lots of layers!
Now, I am also trying to work on the same map as a hand drawing map, but am having a hard time deciding on how to do the mountains. So, I am posting a portion of a map with three different styles of mountains.
Please, if you could comment on which you think looks better, it would be greatly appreciated! Also, any other comments are also helpful.
definitely the bottom mountains ... I prefer those to the other two types of mountains..
After looking at a few other maps on the site, I think that I have settled on a style of mountains.
Here is a new map with some of those mountains applied, as well as some of the text that I want to use.
I really like that style.. and the text is great, what font is that?
