It's always a struggle to accurately convey forested mountains in icon format, but I think you've really got something here. It's still a compromise, but it's by far the best I've seen. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the map come together.
That's a really good idea.Originally Posted by TheImperial
I think that you may have found your style msa...looks really nice.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Thanks for the positive feedback as usual all!
I really appreciate this suggestion. I agree that the rivers look pretty sloppy, and the idea that I might be able to use the forests as an edge of the river is very promising. I think I can really do something cool with this suggestion and I'm looking forward to having the time to implement it.
This week looks promising to having some freedom and stability in my life. The next few days are heavy on interviews, and hopefully by the weekend there will be a real job on the horizon! And with it, some time to map (and have a real life in general)!
Best of luck with that, dude. I'm in the midst of revamping/updating my portfolio site and beginning the job hunt myself. Layoffs suck!
Good luck to you too. One down, two to go. Next two days are going to be very busy.
Good luck on your interviews, guys. Getting ready to start a new job myself tomorrow after a nice little five-day break.
R.E. the map: Is this going to be strictly B&W, or do you plan to color it?
