    Map A snippet of a large map done with CC3 in Forgotten Realms style

    This was my first heavy duty attempt at a FR style map, using the bitmap backgrounds in CC3. The JPEG save is at low res, so shows some pixelation you would not see in the actual map. I really like these maps for their readability and simplicity. Not realistic, but great looking. The entire map is about 12 times the size of this bit, and is about 6 megs in CC file format.
    I have also included a snipped of detail on one small area.
    The most difficult aspect of these maps is the memory leak in CC3 associated with bitmap fills in large scale. Lots of random crashes to deal with...
    You will notice that when doing detail work, I changed to mountain symbols instead of true FR style. The FR mountains did not look as good in detail to me, so I did the detail maps differently.
