i'm thinking about making a town map in photoshop for my dragon age mod

[Anders]

I've looked at some tutorials on this site. Two by Ascensionthat didn't contain much in the way of doing things by hand whitch i apriciate since i'm not an artistic person and one made by pyrandon that contained a lot of fiddling with erasers and different brushes that was difficult for me. The latter however did have a closer zoom on the city itself while Ascensions didn't. Is there a guide that sort of combines the two techniques a bit? I'm especially having trouble making the land look good in pyrandons tutorial. I saw the sheinar map that had been published on the front page and was thinking there might be a tutorial on how to get that look?

Another thing i've been thinking about is quick travel map icons. You see i have this map:

I'm looking for hand drawn icons things that can be on the map, like a town and maybe a mine and such. Are there any available that i could download from somewhere?

Well up to know a2area hasn't made a tutorial on how he did the Sheinar map.
