    I think your "rough draft" looks pretty good to me.

    It depends on what you are looking for. I tend to "specialize" in "photo-realistic" maps (maps made with textures). I have made a few "hand drawn" looking maps but I'm no artist. If you could give me a sense of what you are looking for I might have a better idea of what I could do for you.

    Well the only requirements it needs is it has to be rather large, color if you prefer, and have the locations on it. Does that help at all?

    Are you planning on printing this as part of your book? I ask because the map you have is already better than some maps I have seen in published works. It sounds like you are looking for something very "artistic" and I may not be the right person for that type of map.

    If you are still interested in this project perhaps you could post your rough draft map here. I could try and come up with something for you. I'd use GIMP however as I have it and I'm familiar with it.
