July 2022 Challenge: Umuriro

Is it a good idea to start a mapping challenge the day before the deadline? Absolutly not. Ami I about to do so anyway? I'm certainly going to try...

My random prompts are below and I'm going to attempt number two.

Well, I've pencilled out a map, mow to see if i can ink ink it in time...

The basic idea is that the place is so inhospitable that it is being mapped via crystal ball... which gives a fun scale to play with, also big pit of fire in the middle because fire

We've gained some mountains and I've started to put ink to the paper, I really like how the edges of the chasm look.

Welp, at the wonderful time of 3am I have managed to get the map into a mostly finished state... it has fire, lightning and a somewhat cool font.

I think sleep would be a good plan...

That is a neat scale, I've never seen a map mapped via a crystal ball before. I like the original color better but the final one is more inhospitable. Hope you got some sleep.

Woops, at some point sleepy me moved to a different room due to getting cold and I didn't notice that the house had quite so different bulb temperatures in different rooms....
Hence here is the same image again but with warmer lighting (some day I'll have a better way to submit images, but not today)
You're right Tiana it does look more inhospitable in the previous image but it just looks nicer with the warmer colours.

This is looking good. I really like the text, the typeface is excellent and really well executed. I also like the way all the terrain elements face towards the centre of the map, that's not a look we see very often on maps so extra points for creativity.
