    Default ***February 2021 Challenge -Map Redo***

    Well it is the start of a new year and (for those living in the northern hemisphere at least) Spring is just around the bend. To celebrate the upcoming season of rebirth, this month's challenge is to breath new life into an old map. Ideally this would be a map you yourself had completed sometime in the past. Maybe its a map of your campaign setting or the a map for a fantasy book you hope to one day publish. Maybe you've grown artistically since you first drew that piece and now here's your chance to create a more polished version. Or maybe your world has evolved since you first created it and you'd like to illustrate these challenges in the form of a new map.

    However for our newer members who haven't yet got many maps under their belt you are still welcome to participate. Instead of choosing to redo one of your own maps alternatively you may choose to redo someone else's map. This could be a map made by someone here at the Guild, or that of an author or film/TV series you like. Entirely up to you. The challenge will end sometime late in the evening of the 28th and the winner will receive a shiny new digital golden metal. As always, be sure to:

    1. Title your threads: February 2021 Challenge: <<your title here>>
    2. Use the ### Latest WIP ### tag before EVERY work-in-progress image you post so that the image will show up in the thumbnails

    I'll definitely be joining in on this, and I know exactly what I'm going to do!

    Thanks for posting this, Arsheesh. It's going to be a fun challenge.

    Hmm, I was looking forward to joining the challenge. However, I've literally just finished re-doing the first map I ever made lol. So I'm not sure I have the motivation to redo another. I think I may wait for the next challenge then. This one will be a great one to watch though. Before and after's are always very engaging.

    How about a map that didn't make it to the finish line the first time 'round? Or would that be a different (and maybe good to suggest) challenge?

    Hmm, the spirit of this challenge is to redo an already finished piece. However an exception could be made for an unfinished piece that you want to take another swing at, provided that you are starting over from scratch rather than merely picking up work again on the original unfinished piece.

    Its cool. Restarting an unfinished map might be better as a different challenge anyhow. Have an idea, if I can make the time. Last time I tried to do this particular challenge, ended up shorthanded at work ( nothing new, really ) and wasn't able to finish. Had thought about taking another stab at that one in particular, but because I had already start and hadn't finished... Well, you probably get where I am going with that thought.
