    And yet, I like to see that something from there gets chosen, and it's looking so good this far.
    So maybe I'll find the motivation to go ahead with the overall, not close up, map, so it can actually be worked into the cwbp proper.
    That'd be a wonderful thing to see.

    SG - Yeah I was trying to put more of a hand-drawn style to this. It's pretty much my usual stuff but I brightened up the colors and added a stroke. My hand is far too shaky to draw straight lines and my tablet has hair trigger sensitivity that I have yet to tweak (my lines wiggle just because my heartbeat causes that slight pulse twitch and the tablet picks it up and magnifies it). I'll turn it down one of these days.

    Tonight's work: got the nobles in and the row houses, which took most of the time as I went thru about 5 different processes then came back to the second one. Sitting here waiting for it to upload I just remembered that I forgot the shadows for the nobles houses.

    Seeing all those row houses makes my shoulder twitch. That's what got me on my Shadizaar map.

    These were pretty easy actually, I just filled in the shapes between the streets then used various erasers to cut in the streets then styled the whole blob. I should probably lighten them some.

    There is something about those radial streets that makes that entire section go all 3D-ish! My eyeballs want to see it sticking up off the page at an angle...

    Looks like I'm about halfway done. I'd like to add in some more row house type buildings but with some space for yards and a different look then finish up the unique buildings, then go back and chop out sections of the housing to put other unique buildings into in order to break up the blockiness. I've added lots of stuff in the past 2 nights: warehouses, temple, shipyard, markets, finished the major entertainments, and tweaks here and there where I forgot things.

    Trying to get this thing done before my PC craps out...mouse and keyboard keep cutting out randomly and the fan knocks more than my neighbor's truck. Might be forced into buying a new one before this gets done so I might be out of commission for a few days while I port things over and try to make sure that they work with the Vista nightmare. If I were a techy guy I could take it apart and put new stuff in but since I'm not -- I won't. At any rate, if I'm not around you know where I am and if I am around then things are still working for now.
