    Map Ancient Arabia

    A commissioned map (this request thread), it will be used for an intro of a Middle east historical TV series airing in August.
    It represents a map envisioned by an Arab cartographer in the 7th century who had to guess what may lay beyond the lands he knew. Like 'there will be dragons'. Therefore the unrealistic geography beyond a certain line.

    This is a 25% version, the original is 8400 x 6000 pixels.
    I started the map on Sunday morning and completed it yesterday evening. Even for me that's a new speed record.

    Done in PS.

    UPDATE: Here is the TV-Series, the map (edited by the digital effects artist) is in the intro: http://shahid.mbc.net/media/video/29941/عمر_الحلقة_14

    And a picture from the credits (I don't have a clue, what the topic of the series is, but this is too damned cool).
