    Default Trans Amhara Oromo

    This map is going into an upcoming novel entitled 'Crumbs'. It is an absurdist/satirical piece set in the run-up to and aftermath of a nuclear war. The map began as a picture of a concrete floor which was imported into Gimp and built up from there.

    I really like this! It's a very original look/piece you have here. A very own flavor. I especially love how the mountains turned out.

    In short - love it!

    Have some Rep.!

    Thank you! I inked them in by hand, then used the smudge tool in Gimp.

    Gotta agree with Eilathen, those mountains are really well built up and look great when zoomed out!

    It's a great style you've made here, and I think it would look great in a book. I'd just double check that all the labels are legible if it's going for print.

    Very interesting idea to use a picture of concrete floor as your base! Your creativity definitely paid off. Looks great!
