The Veinan Ridge

Just a fairly quick black and white map I did in a more clean-cut style than I usually do to see how it turned out.

All elements drawn on Photoshop.



Rep, and particularly crit more than welcome!

Looks nice!

Thanks Chashio!

(And feel free to give me one of those many compasses if you want... )

I love this simple B&W style; it always looks great. I like especially how that canyon in the southwest turned out - very convincing. My only critique really, is the outline of the forests. They seem too thick/bold compared to the other elements. It's especially noticeable where a forest is close to the shoreline.

Nice one indeed ! Simple and elegant.

I was wondering that myself so I'm pleased you pointed out too. I'm not sure why they came out like that as I think the brush was the same size, but probably just me being silly.

Thanks for the kind comments too, particularly about the canyon as I wasn't too sure about that.

Cheers Thomrey!

Nice work GLS
It looks ready for print in a book.

Nice work on this, and agree it does look ready for a book. Everything is very clean and clear. If I have to nitpick, I'd make one tiny change with the labelling. There are a few places where you have roads or other lines crossing the labels. I'd add a small white glow to the labels to cover up the lines directly underneath the text. It makes the text more legible.

Will rep if I can.

Really nice map, it's clean and clear as well as well drawn. The one critique I would have is that a little bit of shadow or a B&W texture would go a long way into adding depth to your map.
