    My May 2012 Challenge entry map; this was done on watercolor paper with calligraphy ink, dip pens, and watercolor paints/brushes. Scanned in with no post processing except to stitch the two half-page scans into one image.

    The WIP thread can be found here: http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...Entry-Gaelynta

    Edit: Forgot to give credit to Djekspek's awesome city/castle icon tutorials, which can be found here.

    This was one of my favourites for the challenge, I love the colouring and the font especially. Great job!

    That certainly is cool. Excellent work.

    Beautiful map! I especially like, no, love the compass rose and your calligraphy This map truly is a masterpiece The way you use watercolours is so subtle and smooth, wish I could use them like that^^
