    I am not a Photoshop user, but those are some very good-looking mountains and I like the fact you took the time to share the creation process with us. Repped and thread rated.
    Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.

    Attached is the latest version of this tutorial. I expanded it a bit and now it covers also the ways to create hills, river and towns.
    So here we go and hopefully you find it useful. In case you want to have something added, please let me know and I’ll check if I can come up with a good way to do it.

    And as this was my first tutorial, please let me know if the level of explanations and details was good or if I overexplaned or something.

    Very nice! I wonder if anywhere there is town brush for GIMP.... Will have to search as that's kind of a nice effect.

    This is an excellent tutorial. I've been following along with this tutorial as well as Tears tutorial mostly because I like how much more defined the mountains are with this one. Not quite sure how I feel about the shapes of my mountains so I'll put up my furthest progress on this map so far. I do like it a lot though. Gave you rep for this tut. Again, thank you very much for making this tutorial.
