    Wow! That is really gorgeous. I adore the colours, the little border details, and the drawing

    Tanks Tonnichiwa! Probably I should have done the mountains a bit smaller..

    Thanks Eilathen! It's the same "forest type" I used in both Yar-Zun map and Guild World map

    Thank you very much JO! The trees were relatively easy to draw, the boring part were the little shadow lines

    Thanks Wired! I was not sure about the color palette, client wanted something in line with Yar Zun, but I wanted to try something else and I chose this "mossy" palette.

    One minor nitpick : I would have love to see the icons a bit more "integrated" into the map, somehow.
    Thank you Ilanthar! Indeed I was a bit lazy on icon design, the client wanted something simple and I was in late at that point, so I chose a "standard design" in red to augment contrast. Probably something more unique (maybe using runic symbols) could have done better!

    Thanks Kelleri! I'm pretty proud of the compass rose, I haven't draw many of those, the client asked me to do a raven with something "angelic" above and something "infernal" below, so I came up with this "stencil like" design

    Thank you Mouse! For the border I started doodling a small pattern then repeated seamlessly, but i was undecided 'till the end about inverting the color scheme or not, with the brown background converted to paperlike "beige" as the pattern and vice versa. I chose this version because is more dark and appealing.

    Thanks John, glad you liked it! I thought that the desert was too yellow..

    The forests are so immersive and I love the hue variation ! The map is fantastic and seeing something in the style of Yar-Zun is a real treat !

    I don't know... It might just look more yellow because the transition is more severe than on Yarzun.
    I suppose it is a bit brighter maybe, than Yarzun, plus the yellow region of Yarzun is down in a corner and surrounded by land.
    The yellow in Vellrath is out n a blue sea with lands that are mostly green, so I think that plays into it looking more yellowish.

    It looks great and is a very good resemblance to Yarzun, considering the differences.
