Hello!
This is the first time I post in this thread. I hope I'm doing everything by the rules

These are two of my latest maps. They have been commissioned by Jean Curci. He asked me to paint a couple of maps for his RPG setting.
In particular he asked me to paint The archipelago of Tooj inspired by Burma and another map showing the world of Yr in which Tooj is located together with its twelve moons.

I usually start by doing a lot of research. Once I've gathered all the info I draw a rough sketch of the overall composition. Once I'm happy I proceed with the drawing. Then I ink the map using a dip pen with different sizes of nibs (I buy my nibs here: https://www.scribblers.co.uk/ , I use this ink: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0026439C4 and this paper: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002R0P9R0 ).
Once the inking part is done I go on painting the map with watercolours and add some finishing touches with coloured pencils. I usually add text digitally but I also write it directly on the map if requested.
