    Sapiento for some reason I could almost feel the climate changing as I moved from the frozen north to the warmer south. In fact I'm sure I was bitten by a mosquito from that swampy area!

    What I'd like to know is how you managed to give an impression of the river valleys (is this called relief work?) with such minimal details/marks. I have repped you on this alone but the whole map is deserving too. I do get the impression that the Dragonjaw Ridge label is a bit twisted and not in keeping with the map itself, but that was the client, yes?

    Great colour palette and very pretty icons. I particularly like what you've done with the hills/ridges in the Galanodel forest area. I sorta feel the mountain bases could have done with a little more blending in some places. The transition feels a little abrupt but maybe it's just me. Minor nitpick, however. It's a very pleasing map overall. Can't rep unfortunately.

    I agree with ChickPea... and Straf... and... well, just about everyone else as well.

    Beautiful map, Sapiento

    Thank you! For the river valleys I used a soft brush, nothing spectacular. The basic layout came from the client.
