    Post SouOneCoElevenEctor intro \o

    Hi all my name is Sou1Co11ector, I hail from South Africa and have joined your community as-of today.

    I hope to be as active as time allows. I just made my first map, and I will upload and link just now.

    From there, go to

    and then read

    Nice map for your first time around, SouOneCoOneOneector! I like the colors quite a bit and the overall layout is great. Look forward to seeing your work progress.

    Been playing around with different effects, will post all variations of my map with different colour schemes as soon as I have completed everything.

    Will be about 3 or 4 variations of this map with different colour styles.

    Here is One I'm still busy with.

    Welcome Eugene!

    I like the second one you posted. The bevel on the first one looks a little off. I think you are trying to make that into the mountains, but I'm not sure it is working. Keep at it though. The second map looks nice. You're off to a great start!
