Promising start.
To take a break from my city mapping, I begun on a map of a yet undefined fantasy world/continent, depicting the settlements of that world. I wanted to do this just to sample how my simpler and more traditional style works on a larger scale. And while I'm at it, I figured that I might as well make it into a WIP to motivate myself and hopefully entertain someone.
I will try to do some lore crafting as I go along, that I might or might not post here – depending on time.
As of now, I have only begun working on the lower part of the map, and done to overall shape of the continent. Let's see how this turns out!
Cheers,

Promising start.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

When you said you wanted to do a bigger project you meant it. It's nice to see some of your other work even though I love your city maps.
p.s. did you ever get my email?
Nice continent shape, nice mountains, trees and city icons, a really promising start in my opinion.
Thanks a lot, both of you! Domino44, I emailed you straight after the challenge, but guess you didn't get it. How about now?

That's very good Tainotim! Glad to see you (successfully) doing another kind of map
Thanks a lot Ilanthar! Hopefully it will turn into something great!

Big update on this project. Haven't had a chance to scan it over the holiday, so kind of skipped forward to almost the end of this WIP. Here we go anyway. More or less done with the 'map' except for the labeling. Going to do some frame, compass and title work before I get to that part though.
Cheers,
Tainotim
Great job, tainotim. Another beauty.
