Hey everyone! Here's a practice map that served two purposes. One was to work on it mainly in little bits of time that I found during the day. So, mostly at my little guy's music lessons! The second was just to start in with ink, no pencil sketch first. Oh, and I drew it on a piece of beat up glossy cardstock that I got out of the packaging from a pillow cover, so I guess it's recycled too!

This time I decided to put some labels on first, so I didn't forget and have no room. This was maybe five minutes.

Then I drew some coasts and filled in details. I got this far within the 30 minutes of the music lesson.

Next time I worked on it I was adding texture. Did this at son's rugby practice session, about 15 minutes.

Then I decided to do some little knots in the corners. I confess I'm not sure how long I spent sketching on graph paper to figure these out, but the knots and the extra border lines came together in about 20 minutes. Here's the scan!

Explanatory note: I had this idea for a legend that, long ago, the giants marched north and turned to stone underway. Then their bastards came along after and so there's two mountain ranges.

I should probably still do something with the border, fill it in somehow.

Thanks for having a look!

Cheers,
Meshon
