Thanks !

I could work a little again on this map... Colors and some shadows for the mountains (I still have to work on those shadows...)
But it's moving ahead !

Still working on this map...

I wanted to see where I was going so I did most of the shadows, but only on the right continent... I still have to figure out what kind of details I can add on the empty spaces (though I have to let places for towns, villages and roads)

I would say : so far so good...

Next : I have to check how's the map with the border...

So little done...
Border, correction on the color of a forest, and the city of Locks..

Hey Jo

This has come on loads since I last found this thread! (I seem to keep missing your updates!)

I really love all the improvements, and way you have drawn that city on the isthmus of land between the two continents

Just a thought, but would those hills look even better if you blurred that line at the base of each one?

[- JO -]

Thanks Mouse !
No worries with the hills, there is a lot of work to do on those...
But, it's really "baby steps" those days...
I had a few hours today, I think the continent on the left is pretty much over : just some colors to add on the mountains, and some coastal waves to better link the land with the sea...

This is looking really great now

I guess you will be labelling everything when you've finished

[Wingshaw]

It's looking good, Jo. When you've finished the other aspects, are you going to drop the opacity of the lines?

THW

I won't write a lot on this map, because I need space to draw the emblems of the pirates clans, and of the two cities... Once I've done those, I'll see what places remains for labelling

Thanks !

I just tried to drop the opacity of the lines and you're right : for some lines (coast, forest and mountain mostly) it does give another ambiance to the map (more blury ? I don't know exactly). Actually, I think I should have use a thinner line for some elements... I'll see once I've finished how it goes... Thanks for your suggestion anyway, it's very interesting !
