The illustrations are fantastic, and that crest is top notch.

I find it so neat the Daniel made the same set of maps. It's fun to compare styles (both are equally great).
I find this perhaps one of your most impressive maps, Thomrey!

p.s. Please don't tell me you drew the forests by hand... that's a crazy amount of little details.

p.p.s. The titles of the thread being the same is going to be so confusing.
Thanks Josiah ! Yeah the maps are pretty busy but it was a fun challenge to make it work. Had to remove, move many things to make it work properly but I'm happy with the end result.

About the trees ... for the first map I-drew-every-single-stroke ... for map 2, I drew one tree ... and copied pasted then moved it more than 30 000 times. Hopefully for map 3 I found way to cut the time spent by three

Congratulations on your awesome maps. I really dig them.
For me, i really like your maps when zoomed in, and Daniel's when zoomed out. I get a better feel for the overall lay of the land from Daniel's maps but for the details i really like yours better. So in other words, they complement each other very well.

Very well done, both of you!
And a big thanks to the author as well, not only for the idea but also for allowing us to see the maps in a very good resolution.

And shortly, i am going to repost this (with slight alterations ) to Daniel's thread.
Thanks for the praise Eliathen

I can't rep you right now because I repped you for making me laugh recently But rest assured I'll try to return when I can. Good work mate, good work indeed and I may have to buy these books when they're published then catch a Eurostar to get your autograph on them. I'm sure the first person I see in Gara Du Nord will tell me where thomrey lives
Thanks Straf and thanks for the effort in french ! I'd be glad to se you in Paris but I doubt anyone would know me BTW I live near Gare du Nord.

Thanks a lot Martin, for your comment and your advices ! Your help was really precious. I hope I'll be able to post that photo soon Both maps are different, it was one of the great part of the job, being able to have those two points of view.
