    I don't really have an example as such. I merely remembered seeing some maps drawn with the landscape being indicated by rather simplistic icons and thought that that would be an easy enough thing to start with as a noob

    The goal is to create the worldmap with these simple icons, whilst still showing the general outline of the mountain ranges and valleys etc. Once I've done that I will take each region/nation and some surrounding area and recreate these in more detail. I'm not entirely sure whether I should go with a satellite view with realistic mountains - I imagine that being rather difficult (the chances being that I'll throw my mouse at my monitor) - or simply making the icons more 'complex'.

    Examples:

    UPDATE: Yeah... I got bored and was too lazy to continue the map today. So... Instead I present you "The Red Mountains - North of Dirdam at Sunset" Yeah... sunset is in the east.
