The Lands of Cha-uari [challenge map]

[J.Edward]

I found my everyday brush setting in one of your threads And, BTW, I love the map, especially the perspective and the warp effect of the mountains. You rock !

Thanks Thomas
I make new brushes every so often, but it is nice to have an everyday brush.

The perspective is great and I really like the forests.

Thanks Ilanthar

Another artful fantasy-map from you, J. No surprise there. The execution is as close to perfect as a human being can get (I'm sure you'll surprise me by moving the boundary in your next map ).

But what always awes me with your works is that you can transport a huge amount of vibe/feel with your styles. And that is beside the fact that you most often also provide us with background and history on top of your work process! Even if you only posted your maps, they always "tell" a story for me...they have that powerful depth that only few known maps of fictional places have for me (for example the Middle-Earth map). You just feel and know that these places are old and have history. I applaud you for that!

That is so cool of you to say, Eilathen
Means a lot to me. I never know if people enjoy the little tales that go along with the maps.
For me, it's half the fun of makign a new place - that feeling of discovery, figuring out the backstory of the place.
