Thanks, both of you
Foremost, yeah, you're right, I have to improve my brush control and make my lines neater. Working on it!

The writer's faith in you was deserved, a damned fine map. Good feel and tone.

Beautiful work!!! It presses all the right buttons for me.
Lingon, this is one awesome city map!
Wow, that's pretty cool. Great job!
Great, i love that style.
Thanks guys! Very much appreciated!
Stunning work. It reminds me of many of the maps published by ICE for their Middle Earth Roleplaying sourcebooks. I believe all of those were Pete Fenlon's work. The Choice award is well deserved!
The Photoshop typography, while well-done, is perhaps too perfect. Maybe you should look into ways of distressing and distorting the text slightly to better integrate it with the hand-drawn elements of the map. The coastlines, particularly the eastern portions of the river, are very well-defined, and I think in the future, if you could match that quality of rendering on city walls, particularly the outer boundary, that would help to clean up the zone border between the town and the countryside.
Do you use any kind of guide for circles? Some of the towers are a little oblong, but if they're free-hand, then I'd say they're actually remarkably round.
