    Tutorial How to draw realistic mountain ranges (Tutorial)

    If you are a newcomer who has never drawn a realistic mountain range or if you belong to the perfectionnist kind who is always unsatisfied with the results, I have tried to give some practical suggestions in this tutorial.
    Of course as the name indicates, the target is restricted to realistic maps.
    If you don't care for realismus, you may freely disregard all and any suggestions I might give.

    I hope it helps.

    Thanks for your comments.
    I have got some PMs so that I know that people used it for their creations. Of course I would have liked some comments but after all a tutorial is made to help people so that if that goal is achieved, it has fulfilled its purpose

    Interesting... Most of my mountain chains will need to adapt then! I love Learning about stuff.
    We all wish to create, but do we really create?
    What we draw and what we write is part of us.
    No we do not create, we simply discover who we are.

    Praise Many thanks

    Thanks, Deadshade! This tutorial not only extended my understanding of how to craft realistic mountain ridges and peaks but my understanding of how (and where) mountains form. I'm attempting to map a story I'm working on and wanted to thank you for making my new world more plausible. Cheers!
