    Thanks! The font is Pide Nashi.

    Elegance, simplicity and attention to detail, these are some features that I would steal from Sapiento's maps. This one is no exception.

    Great job, congrats.

    I love it.
    I assume the walls are outlined in Illustrator - how is the stonework fill achieved. I'm new to mapping in Illustrator and am moving (a decade late, granted) from Freehand. Getting Illustrator to fill or texture strokes is not something I've had much success with yet. I've had pretty good results with Photoshop, but I have vastly more experience with it than I do Illustrator.

    Thanks!

    I did all the outlines in Illustrator, but added the colour in Photoshop. Filling shapes in Illustrator is more complicated then in PS, that's true.
