    Map 1980s Uninfished Pen & Ink

    This is a finished/unfinished map I did in the late 80s. Rapidograph on Vellum. I say finished/unfinished since the original 11x17 has gone missing and all that's left was a reduced 8.5x11 so I can't go back and complete it now.

    I think itt has a vaguely Rolemaster/Iron Crown look to it.

    Nice work! I love the style of your mountains, and the forests look great. It's too bad you can't finish it (though... you can't finish it digitally?) as the empty spaces detract from the whole somewhat, but nonetheless, it's a very attractive map.

    I may have to see what I can do. The open areas were originally planned as grasslands so it shouldn't be too hard to fill in the gaps and label the settlements.

    That's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Might steal parts of the style if that's okay.

    looks very cool. I'm assuming the resolution is not optimal for expanding upon... but if I were you (and you really want to recreate the same place just for the pleasure of finishing it) I'd create some new seamless patterns with the same style for the trees... and some mountain brushes with the same style... and recreate the map. the roads and forest edges you can do by hand with a tablet/pen. if you aren't sure how to do some of these things i guarantee that someone here will assist. it's should be fairly easy and you'll have the tools to expand to your heart's content
