November Entry - The Sundered Lands
"And then the Dark God Urzugdú burst forth from the earth and his fury tore the land asunder. Death and destruction rained down upon the people of Utheniel and the world was changed forever."
This idea just popped into my head this morning so I banged this out in a few hours. I've been wanting to do a "hand-drawn" map in photoshop for awhile and this seemed like my opportunity. There's going to be more to come in the north of the map. I should be able to get it done in time.

Ooo nice job.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Dark and evocative. The Diablo Font is a nice touch.
Ok, did some more work on it. This is the final version.

That's fantastic! The rivers in particularly look brilliant, and I love the detail in the coasts.
Nice job on this...

Wow, that is nice. I really like the water indicators around the coast.

Nice - like itWe dont get too many black and white style maps any more.
brilliant idea. I like the map very much.
If I may ask as you said something of hand drawn. Do you use a graphics tablet for the job? I just ask because I was thinking about buying some as a kind of christmas gift for myself.
Yeah, I used a Wacom tablet. I got a cheap one ($90 at Best Buy) almost a year ago and it was a great purchase. I use it all the time now.
