    Wip Edelu - First Serious WIP

    Well, it's time for me to actually start my WIP thread for the first map I have made after registering here. I am going for the well-known "old hand-drawn map" style in this one. It's going to end up being about as big as my laptop can handle, about 6000 by 6000 px.

    After toying with my terrain generator, I got a satisfactory alpha map, and I followed a tutorial (I forget which one, but I think it was RobA's) for the paper/parchment for it. That's all I have now, but I should get the next bits up soon.

    The name of this region is Edelu. It is not being used for a story, nor an RPG, and so it has no narrative significance. It comes from Proto-Indo-European words meaning "Eating Elephant"...you can probably guess why. I like being able to be whimsical about this.

    EDIT: Land masses are the white region and ocean is the black region.
