My First Map

[Ascension]

Indeed, it was the repetition...Feral knows me well. So here's what I'd suggest, it's quick and not too cumbersome...change the size of the brush so that some things are bigger, some smaller, etc. Sure it'll still be somewhat repetitive but at least the size will alleviate a bit of that. Put the bigger mtns in the middle of the chain and the smaller ones at the edges...same for the hills. You could do this with the fields as well but for those I'd also suggest rotating some of them a little bit. We'll take you through this one thing at a time so as not to overload ya as this is probably the very first time you've attempted it. If you feel ready, read through the tutorials section and try some of those out as well as look through the mapping elements section (there are patterns and other brushes there for you to play with). The more variation you can put into those things like mtns, trees, hills, etc the better the map will look.

Thanks for the tip about varying the brush size and how to do it. I'll try that out.
