Thanks! I initially used MSpaint a few years back for the colouring after scanning in the pen and ink copy, then I got my hands on photoshop/illustrator which I tried to create a earth like texture. And just a couple months ago I used Fractal terrains along with the recent earthlike climate mod to help with the clime textures. And finally used illustrator to turn it into a working globe.

Saddly, I could not upload a animated globe on CG for you all to enjoy...

I am a big fan of FT, but I don't care for the look of alot of the "quick click" worlds that it generates. And I had already mapped my own world so I built it up by hand on FT too along time but I really happy with the results.

The world and everything in it is for a novel that I've been writing for the better part of 5 years now. I'll share more of the story for those that would like to know

Thanks for the qudos!

Sorry for the long reply
