The Dal Lands

[tilt]

I'm getting tired on your behalf... thats a lot of trees... they look a little uniform/patterned in some places, but that will probably be better after your clean up

[Katto]

The symbols look very good. I'm anxious to see how they will fit in the map.

Um... EEEEEP
Thar be TREEZ!

Other than the very "grid-like" arrangement... *blinks* there are probably as many trees on this map as there is in my Neoseilthir map... I feel your tree pain. Just remember to feel mine with the "every tree put in by hand" aspect! :S

Okay, looking a little better now. I went back and redid the forests and hills using different settings this time around, a much better coverage than before. Now I need to go back and delete trees and hills that overlap with each other and then I'll get down to experimenting with colour. But before then I have to find a good way to show marshlands and to break up those large areas of black space.

@Juggernaut - all trees by hand? Ouch, I feel your pain, you, sir, have some major patience and commintment, bravo.

Trees look better in this last version, though I don't think the stark, black labels really go well with the color scheme.

[LonewandererD]

Don't worry, this is not the colour scheme I'm going with, those black labels are just placeholders for later.

looking much better now... in the olden days, I did swamp with a few vertical "straws" sticking up of some horizontal lines (hand drawn), sometimes with some small circles/blotches here and there...

UPDATE!

Clean up the forests and hills as best i could, put down the marshes, redid the rivers and borders, marked down the locations of all cities and towns and coloured the map. Next, labelling all the settlements, already named the capital cities and the settlements in the Dominion of Sorres.

Looking good, man. I noticed you've got some kind of weird layer issue with part of the forest at the very top/central edge of the map.

[LonewandererD]

If you're reffering to the areas that have been blacked out they're supposed to be like that, they are areas that are not controlled by the Dal.
