    Default Political map of the Elwynnese Union

    Look! It's a map!
    (don't-know-how-to-start-threads-syndrome)

    This is a map for a role-playing group, the second one commissioned by Harald Freyjugjöf (the first being this one). It shows the administrative regions of the country of Elwynn.

    As usual it's a mix of traditional and digital work, I drew the coastline and borders with an ink pen and did the coloring and labeling in PS. The font is Xisfani by Liliana Diaz.

    Looks nice, I feel like you went a little overboard on the number of regions, that's a formidable wall of text at the top

    Pretty cool as per usual, Lingon. Couple of questions: why are some of the province names listed in all caps when others aren't? Also, what are the smaller purple areas? City-states?

    Great, another Lingon map ! Nice and clear map. My only regret is that I would have gladly seen the provinces lists on a separate/additional cartouche. The colours are very well chosen and I love the little insets in the bottom left.

    Cheers! The number of regions was already decided, I was given a huge list in alphabetical order and told to make them fit, basically. It is a wall of text, but it's not meant to be read all at once, just to look up the province you're interested in, so I think it works for the purpose it's for.

    Thanks Diamond! The names in caps are cities, which are also labeled on the map itself in caps. I thought that would make the cities easier to find within the long lists. And yup, purple areas are city-states

    Thanks Ilanthar! That's a good idea, though it would have taken a huge cartouche… This way, you can see the map below the text, and I think it would've looked odd with a cartouche that covers almost half the map?
