    Map Topographic Map of Aefeross

    I've seen a lot of beautiful topographic style maps produced over the years and finally decided to try to produce one myself. Aefeross was completed entirely in Adobe Illustrator. Feedback appreciated, and if anyone has tips for shading and shadowing in Illustrator I would greatly appreciate it!

    Nice work! Making a map entirely in vector format can be tricky business, but I think you pulled it off nicely. The coastlines are a little smooth for my taste, but the overall layout of the landscape looks nice, and the elevation seems well done. I'd personally opt for a separate box for the information text, though, I think the text there on top of the ocean looks a little awkward. Maybe that's just me.

    In any case, very nice map, have some rep!

    Kellerica, thanks for the rep and the critique! I had doubts about the smooth coastline and the text; I'll try both differently next time! Cheers and Happy New Year!
