Here's a quick experiment I made in between other stuff. I wanted to make something less high fantasy than most maps I've made, more realistically medieval. Also something that can be drawn in pure black and white, for paperback publishing for example, without too much loss. It became… this

The font isn't the best choice, I should've downloaded some early medieval script (or preferably written it myself, by hand… Have to learn that some time!), but I was too lazy and I think it gets the point across at least

It took about two hours of ink drawing and ten minutes or so of color, which feels like an ok amount of time for the result. The paper texture is added digitally (it's a scanned paper with super-high contrast).

Whaddyathink?
