    Hey max, honestly, i don't see why you are that hard on your own map. It looks really good. I saw it over on the KS page and i was wondering when you'd post it up here. Nice to see it now
    I think it's a good representation of your skills, even if it is older. It's not as if you can reinvent the wheel on cartography anyway. I like it a lot. But now i do wonder how you'd do it if you had to do it now And a colored version would be interesting to see as well.

    Anyway, as always, well done!

    I am really considering backing this...the big big problem is the ridiculous shipping charges and - sorry to say - Luke Crane being kind of an ass (he definitely has low online-social-skills and customer-handling-skills are abyssmal).
    I'm trapped in Darkness,
    Still I reach out for the Stars

    Thanks WIred !

    Thanks, yea conveying ice on a B&W map isn't always that easy. I ended up with this on this one, evocative ways working sometimes better than realistic ones

    Thank you GLS

    Thanks Eilathen. Maybe you're right, I'm probably a bit hard on me on this one
