WIP: Waterdeep (commission, for Leopardi)

[Ilanthar]

I would like to be able to give a good advice on this impressive map. But, I've nothing that is not in your "to do list", so... I'm just saying how I love your work on this!

[Robulous]

Impressive level of detail. My eagle eye wonders what are those columns in the big centre square by the cathedral? Grave markers, trees?

[Gozquarter]

This latest revision is stunning. I love all of the little intricate details on the buildings and in the bay area.

[Wingshaw]

Thanks guys.

The columns in the middle are, from what I have been told, memorials and maybe graves.

Latest update. Nearly done with the colouring, and so will soon begin shadows.

Looks awesome, especially the bridge/cliff above the water! Can't wait to see the finished version

[ChickPea]

Looks amazing! I love how those underwater buildings are represented.

[Wingshaw]

Thanks Norimn and ChickPea.

Another update. Shadows on the buildings are done, some of the shadows on the ground have also been done, and I've experimented with an alternative way to depict the underwater buildings. What do y'all think?

Amazing! I think I like the new way of depicting the underwater buildings better. Can't wait to see this completed.

Thanks Josiah

At last, the drawing is finished, and fully coloured. It took roughly 1 year and 5 months--far too much time. Now, I just have to do the labels, and then it is done...

I've uploaded 3 pics: one showing the finished thing as intended, another showing it without linework, and a third without colour. The second and third are just for fun.
