Map of Akran

wow, this a great map Josiah!

This is lovely, professional work, Josiah and it'll look fantastic in a book. Have to agree with the other comments about the rivers vs coastlines. It took a moment for my eyes to sort out what I was seeing! It's beautifully drawn, though, and the mountains, forests and typography look great. Just fantastic work all round. Will rep if I can.

Great job on this - I really like it. I'll be the dissenter also and say I think the rivers work just fine.

Great great job and a wonderful depiction of terrain !

Very nice work. I like the sketchy style, and am amazed that the map is still so clear and easy to read in spite of it. Have some rep

As always, let me know what you think!

I think it's awesome .
As I previously said, I really love how you depicted some elements like the Tower of Silence, the croplands... and the illustrations are really nice.

Thank you Arsheesh!

This looks awesome, would love to see this in color. My only comments, maybe a point more in leading of the type. "Makkut Eastern Settlement" and Tower of Silence seem a little tight on the line spacing. No crazy about the compass rose, other than that really line this, I agree with GLS on the thickess/coloring of the rivers, could be a 80% gray or something? Nice job and congrats on the commission, I'm sure there very happy.

Thanks Snodsy, I'll keep those in mind for next time.

Great black and white map ! Like others, I would like see some colors

Thank you very much snodsy. I would also love to see it in colour, but unfortunately that's not what the client asked for.

I'll give the contrary opinion that's it's nice to see a NOT fully colourised map. If you pick up a fantasy novel there is almost never a colour map. Maps in books generally have to be purely monochrome. This is a good example of it imo.

Thanks Rob.

Thanks Diamond. I wonder if it's just a matter of the brain or opinion that sorts that out.

Thanks so much Thomrey!

Thanks! It took a while to get the style I was going for and actually make it work.

You can't do that. You can't sneak in just as I'm making my big reply post.
Thanks Ilanthar.
