Hi guys,

The DM who runs my weekly game puts in shocking amounts of time prepping encounters and story for the group... but his sketch of the region we are exploring didn't quite get his undivided attention. This is what he gave us when we started the campaign 6 months ago! :

So, after a few months of hand-mapping the dungeon encounters that took place within that Region I found The Guild, which not only helped me make some better dungeon maps, but also got me thinking about larger-scale mapping too... So I figured I might have a go at re-working the DM's Regional Map myself and see if I could enrich it a bit:

Now, obvs this is a modest start, and you can probably tell I got bored of it half way through and rushed it a tad.
I got 'bored' because I only worked out after half way round that there are no second chances when you are sketching by hand and if you put something just slightly outta place, you are scuppered!

So, I've posted it here as a starter, as I am planning to start going through some of the tutorials to teach myself how to use Gimp.

I'll post again when I have something digital to share. Wish me luck!

Cheers,
Twinkle.
