Sorry I haven't posted in awhile - are you still doing this series? If so, could you do one on different styles of fonts and such you use for pen and ink?

I think this is a great tutorial, and one that I have been wanting to find for SOOOOO long. I am an avid pen and paper drawer of land masses but SUUUck at the terrain features no matter how much I try. This tut is giving me the urge to try again.
Thanks again.
Repped and rated
Del started a new job a few weeks ago and is on the road, so don't expect any updates to this until his training period is over which won't be until the end of this year at least as he is pretty much work, sleep, work mode.

no rush
just stumbled over this and wanted him to know that it was with much relief that stubbed my toes.
besides, the time between posts will give me more time to absorb what was already laid before me.
Yep... Jojo said it, i'm a working stiff .... so I've got 'responsibilities' to take care of .... But I will be delving into it again hopefully in the new year... Thanks for the praise Korash and thank you all for the patience
Del,
Ironically, this tutorial inspired me to do it the "old fashioned way" on my big WIP project... draw every last mountain, hill, forest and swamp by hand. Hopefully it will look better than "passing average"... but then my drawing skills aren't exceptional and between everything else I do in my time I don't get the chance to practice properly and improve... (btw.. i HATE drawing living things... they NEVER look right)
