    Map Continent of Istria - World of Ghoraja Juun

    OK, so here we go. This is the first of six continental maps I'll be doing for my home-brew campaign world. Many of my past maps have made reference to this world or were based on something I'd come up with in the past.

    This is done in my usual style, mostly patterned layers (sometimes stacked). I did a lot of tweaking of things as I went along and hopefully I've left myself enough notes that I can duplicate things so the other five maps have the same look and feel.

    As I noted in the WIP thread for this, Istria would lie in the same approximate location as South America does on earth.

    So take a peek, hopefully you like what I've come up with.

    I like this continental map. I particularly like the textures and colours used in the Orodreth Wastes. Very nice. The Title font and compass rose are great too. I'm looking forward to see the other continents when you're done.

    Thanks...

    Yes they will all be the same dimensions, though the amount of land will vary.

    The next one I plan on doing is the one around which a lot of things are centered. The brunt of the Gods Fall Wars happened there so the idea is that the original continent has been shattered into numerous islands and demi/sub-continents.

    Sorry I didn't respond sooner, not very active here anymore.

    No I did not draw any inspiration from from any map of Croatia. Istria is just a name I came up with.
