The past days I had a blast spending between 30min to 1.30h on hobby stuff each day. This was inspired by a 30min hobbying per day challenge on Facebook. I often think that in such a small time frame nothing can be achieved, but I stand corrected and will try to continue this habit and to improve my work flow.

So what did I do? I conducted some map making experiments using coffee, Rooibos tea, tumeric and a hibiscus blend to create autumnal landscapes as well as sepia tone scenes. Both will be useful to colorise my latest line-art map.

I really wanted to get into traditional water colour painting instead of doing everything in Photoshop. So far I am pleased with the outcomes. They have a dreamy quality to them and would be well placed in a children's book, to illustrate a fairy tale or - as intended - as a location map for my campaign setting.

I am tempted to add more detail using pen or acrylic paint, but I also like the art as it is, leaving the details to the imagination. Opinions on this?

C&C as always welcome.

Cheers

Chris
