    OMG!

    That is just gorgeous!

    You've definitely got the watercolour technique all stitched up

    Scanning and stitching went way faster than expected, thanks to Photoshop's Photomerge plugin, which did a perfect job automatically, so here it is, the final version (more or less - I might do some digital adjustments later).

    Please let me know what you think, what you like, what you don't like, how could I improve, what can I do better on the next one... Your feedback and encouragement is invaluable. Thanks!

    Oh I love it! Gorgeous water as always. I really like that you added some more browns in this one and the hint of red in the compass, it’s really great... and thanks for the light house it’s an honour to be included in such a fine map.

    Edit... Tried to add rep but it wouldn’t let me, so just know that the sentiment is there.

    It is splendid ! Also, thanks for the photomerge info. Until now, I did all my stitchings with tiny little transformations, automating the process will allow for more large maps.

    I think this should be in the dictionary next to 'superlative' as an example. It's a stunningly beautiful piece of work.

    Have to agree with the others, this looks great. I am so Not looking forward to voting because I am gonna feel bad if I don't vote for everyone. Definitely gonna have to hit everyone that I can with my rep twig.

    Totally agree on that, I was looking at the thumbnails today and was thinking that it's going to be really really tough. Awesome maps out there, each in its own way.

    I already liked the map in black and white, but now it is stunningly beautiful! I love how the water looks really watery.
