    Wip Breakwater - a city in the Mountain Realms

    I'm currently mapping my "world" map - the Mountain Realms (link in signature). One of the important cities there is Breakwater - the only harbour city and also where my players (D&D) resides. I've drawn the city by hand some time ago - but are now working to convert it to digital format via Illustrator and Photoshop. But as I'm currently changing the world map - the city will also meet some changes, like having a great river run by it and having some alterations to the fortifications to take into account the growing of the city over time.
    The map posted below is to show how the city started before the comming changes. I hope you like it and feel free to comment

    The hand-drawn map looks pretty sharp. Lots of buildings there

    SG - still working on the groundwork - just placing the buildings - but I'll post the first draft as soon as I've added room for the river

    I can relate to that..The capital city of my Kingdom Of Shendenflar was a HUGE hand drawn map with about 1000 buildings. I would love to convert it into digital format someday..your city looks great!!

    So, now I've added a river to my illustrator file - and two connecting roads to what is going to be the original fortification of the city.
