Thread: February 2019 Challenge: The Diamond Trade Route

    Such a neat and effective way of explaining the trade routes, and a really elegant map. It makes me wonder if anyone has tried to establish rival trade routes - e.g. direct from Shazar to Cethon across the mountains! What would have become of such a venture...?

    Yes, it does look better. And I guess it's just me that likes the less crisp look Regardless of personal taste and preferences, this is objectively a fantastic map

    And I'm glad you changed those distances. I looked at it earlier but didn't have time to comment and they immediately jumped out at me as being... enthusiastic.
    Haha, i think i need a proper paid commission to make another chunk of the land for this one .
    "enthusiastic".... haha thank you for being so considerate in choosing the nice words. I should place the running siihlouette instead of walking for the previous numbers

    That would be much dangerous, yet more profitable trade route for sure. I thought of making more routes on the map at the beginning, but later deleted it, because the map became too cluttered with lines, icons and names. This style is not good for lots of information placed on the map, unfortunately ;(.

    Thank you Wingshaw. I am not sure if that is only you, but it's perfectly fine. Diversity in everything makes this world awesome

    Anyway those numbers really looks better than before, so thank you very much Naima!
