I really like the style you're using, and I always have been partial to maps of movement and battles. I look forward to seeing what else you will include.
MOAR TREES!
I adjusted the distances and added some icebergs in the north sea. The path and legend are mostly for me at this point. Still lots and lots to do. Including, sadly, more trees.

Thank you, Ottehcnor! Once I finish up the landscape and add some color, I'll start working on town and city icons and figure out how to best incorporate the story itself. I'm still interested in doing a ribbon map, but I think that may have to wait because I like showing the full region.Originally Posted by Ottehcnor
This is really lovely Aesh. And I've just listened to the theme for Gilligan's Island for the first time so thanks for that also
Looking forward to seeing more of your map!
Roflmao. I got in (mock) trouble with the husband for telling him about this and letting him read the song. "Dammit now the Gilligan's island theme is stuck in my head!"

Looking forward to seeing more of your map!I can't believe you've not heard it before! I grew up on re-runs of it. That was back in the day when we had 3 channels, though, so we watched what was on!
"....a three-hour tour, a three-hour tour."Roflmao. I got in (mock) trouble with the husband for telling him about this and letting him read the song. "Dammit now the Gilligan's island theme is stuck in my head!"The players in my D&D group would alternate between complaining that Gilligan's Island was stuck in their heads and having their PCs drunkenly sing the Charge of Arthur Bryne. I realize now that I should set more game-relevant information to sticky TV theme songs. My players would actually remember the stuff they need to know!

You had 3 channels growing up? Luxury!
This is looking great on the book now, too. It's got a lot of character in it. Slightly protruding lines to be chopped off on the right hand side. Loving it and looking forward to seeing more, to seeing more...
Darn, I meant to chop off the protruding lines before posting this WIP. Gotta remember to do that next time.
The trees are placed and colored. I still need to shade them but finishing the line work and coloring the trees took me 2.5 American football games, plus some pre-game stuff.

Trees are the gift that keeps on giving! I've shaded all of the green deciduous trees and the southern pine trees. Still have those two huge swaths of northern pines to shade, along with the colorful trees (that's Fey territory). I need to play around with the color of the north sea - I want to show that it's colder but I'm not sure I'll stick with this color.
