    Map Lands of the Inner Sea

    Here is a hand drawn map done in red and black ink in Tolkien's famous style. I wanted to try hand drawing maps and thought this would be a good style to imitate as an exercise. Actual size is A4 so quite small. Feedback would be most welcome!

    That's great whump. Looks just like it came out of Middle Earth.
    I like your mix of forest trees.
    I think you pretty much nailed the look.

    Wow, that is gorgeous. I LOVE those mountains, and your labeling, especially for 'Lands of the Inner Sea'.

    Have some well-deserved rep.

    You've certainly captured Tolkeins style with this map, I hope one day you return to this world(?) because as with all good maps, you want to see what lies off the boundaries of what is shown.

    @Deodand: I have half a dozen worlds I'd like to see the rest of! Hopefully, one day...
