Hey all It's been some time since I made a map now, my last commission took a huge amount of more time than I expected and I kinda lost the motivation a little bit after that… It’s coming back though, and luckily I visited the forums again just in time to see this challenge and team up with someone whose work I really love – Chashio
No threads yet, I guess I’ll go first!

These are the guidelines I got:
- natural media on paper or canvas,
- size between 8x10 - 16x20,
- nice quality, but not something that will take more than 20-30 hours of working time,
- includes water of some type and some variety of altitude,
- style, design, color by request - else open to whatever you want to work on or try,
- for labels, there should be a title at the least, and... whatever else is desired/fitting I guess, within reason.

For myself, you know I love your watercolor maps. If it's something you'd like to do... I'm thinking either a continent, like your Pangea or Krig, or a regional, like Exculta Mundi or Westri. I'm quite fond of the mountains you did in the two middle examples. And I do prefer greener, four season lands over hotter climes, but I'd like to leave more specific design options open-ended. The only other thing, which isn't really a specific but might give you ideas toward possibilities... I cherish story potential. Have you ever read the kind of fantasy novel (without orcs and elves) where there's maybe one or two elements of magic and an overall pageantry to the world but it almost takes a backseat to the gritty, individual reality and events that move a few characters through their own small piece of the grand scheme? Yeah. Like that.


The first things, the list, are our common guidelines that will apply for both of us.

I’ve started sketching some land shape ideas:

We’ve discussed combining the first two somehow, either actually combining them into one map, or using them for different places in the same world.
