There you go! Nice work.
So.. is there going to be any other terrain elements (buildings, ancient ruins, dragon caves) in this tile, or do we have for the others?

Agreed, I like the coastline a lot now. Good job. Also curious if you are going to add any other stuff.Originally Posted by Hoel

Thanks guys.
Most of the structures will be player made, and won't be seen in these pictures. They'll get added by mapping software as players construct them. I do plan on a few pre-existing towns, one of which will be a harbor.
My next step is to move eastward towards a mountain range. I'll be looking for help designing mountains.I've attached a conceptual of where I'm going with this. The tile I've been working on is in the northwest corner.

The 2nd tile is complete. I'm working my way towards the mountain range. Please see the OP for the latest update.
So, how much time do you plan to spend on each tile?
And they all have to link up?
I love the forested hills in your second map! This is something I have been struggling with myself.

As long as it takes. I've been working on this for 9 months already.So, how much time do you plan to spend on each tile?
Yep
Thank you!

Well dont forget to look at the August challenge where we made map tiles for our challenge. Some of us made scripted ones so that you just defined some basic properties and get the computer to do the hard work. Anything more than about 3 and I would go scripting if that was me.... just sayin'
Excellent!
The style is consistent, and looks really nice. I want to see you tackle the mountains and other terrain too.
I've added tiles 3 and 4, and a thumbnail of all 4 tiles glued together. It's my first attempt at mountains, so suggestions are greatly appreciated.
