Umi No Toride [Larb's commission for Commission a Guilder challenge]

So dynamic! I would have automatically placed the plan view and elevation view independently. But the way you merged them together is slick.

Thanks Vhey. It all started with Bourmout and a wip thread, my first actually.
A testament to how a wip can bring out results that you might not have thought of.

This is a gorgeous piece. And I agree with Vhey, you've combined the two views in a very unified and dynamic way. I'm taking notes

Thanks Arsheesh.

It's to bad that I was so busy at the end of last year for the time of this challenge, I would have loved to be a part of that challenge. Your map simply blew me away. I love the style, the layout, and the detail is incredible. The little things like the roof tiles and the fact that you can see foundations through the water and even the clouds in the background are all so well done. I wish I could rep it again at this time... Hopefully I can rep your next map.

Thanks Domino, and no worries. The comment is worth more to me.

Absolutely fantastic work (I think I've said that already, but no matter.) I'm glad you managed to finish within the challenge deadline too!

You deserved the win for this map, even though there were so many other excellent entries in the challenge. This map is outstanding.

Thanks ChickPea.

I also said it already but nevermind, this an amazing piece of art. I love your work and saying that this is maybe the best one yet you did in its genre I think says a lot
Please continue inspiring the rest of us with your work.

Also, on the side note, to me the finished work looks like it was pulled out of a fantasy calendar of some sort

Thanks Barek. Yeah, the vertical kanji made me think the same thing.

Such a great map! Transparency of the water and algae... you've outdone yourself on this one. The layout & transition is indeed one of the best feature on this one.

Thanks Ilanthar. The water thing is something I've actively been trying to work on since doing Oasis Suruq last year.
