    Post Middle Earth for Mom

    Yay for the first map I've actually finished!

    This map is a gift for a my mother, once I get it printed and framed. She and I have a long history with Middle Earth; we read the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings together many many moons ago and it continues from there.

    Most of the map was drawn in GIMP, using concepts from RobA's tutorials plus a lot of experimentation. The labels were created in Photoshop, then brought over to the GIMP for polishing. The compass rose, such as it is, was drawn in Fireworks then brought over.

    Thanks bunches to all of the folks who helped out in the WIP thread. Your suggestions helped me make it better than I thought I could.
