So this is going to be my first attempt at a city map with the new skills I have learnt from this community!

Here's the original sketch that I was working up a couple of years ago.

I'm going to use it as a broad guide but I'm not going to force myself to stick to it rigorously.

At the moment I want to do a detailed map and intend to hand draw the buildings individually rather than the blocks I had here, generally to push myself as hard as possible for an amazing map and hope to get somewhere close to it!! .

I'm not sure whether I'll be going colour or some sort of sepia aged look but as I reckon there's a lot of work to do before I need to decide that but in the meantime if anyone has any tips or advice then all is gratefully received.
