I've been looking for something that covers the "rules" for pictorial mapmaking, along the lines of "How to do realistic mountain ranges" but more like the "Positioning Names on Maps" tutorial. Something that discusses the height, shadowing and amount of detail of whatever is illustrated in a vertical manner off of a 2d map. How to approach them and what to avoid.
I can't believe I missed this post! I was looking a post like this and who guessed that it was right under my nose in the sticky thread section.
Much appreciation Vandy; I'll have to mentally consume each of those wonderful gems.
"Hey, listen here. If you have thick enough cataracts, anything looks like a brick. So I'm right."
thanks!
thank you for all the hard work!
