    Default Map 19 - The United Kingdoms of Azuredawn, Home of The Cartographers' Guild

    The 4 Kings of Azuredawn greet you! From the halls of the Cartographers' Guild, where the greatest cartographers are trained and sent to the rest of the world, it is our pleasure to present to you the The United Kingdoms of Azuredawn!

    I decided to start from my initial Fractal Terrains file, and break it down from there. I'm probably not going to stick to this look and feel, the only thing I've actually artistically done is drawn in my own rivers and mark the border accordingly. I've also placed the location of the capitol city, but it's unlabeled. This is Azuredawn, and the home of the Cartographers' Guild...which, coincidentally will be the building I'm building for my lite challenge entry. Hopefully I can finish BOTH of these

    Nice. I was going to suggest that to you, as I didn't know how much time you'd have for this.
    Now we need to get you a flag planted on the big map

    Well I'd like to actually do my own mapping, but I'm no "Illustrator" so we'll see what this ends up looking like. Could be great, could be not so great, lol.

    I've introduced myself to my current neighbors, however I'd like to mention that each country has two esteemed graduates from The Cartographers' Guild. Sent forth to aid in mapping and chronicling the lands of their birth. Azuredawn is a peaceful land of culture and learning, and is renowned for it's Cartographers' Guild and College. All races are welcome and all trade agreements are especially welcomed.

    Just laying down some place names and kingdom borders. ALL of my colors are just placeholders now...I haven't even begun to bring this together yet...colors are my weak point because I'm color blind.
