Ironlands (Commission WIP)

[Naima]

Here is an update.

Quite a bit of progress and finer work, including but not limited to:
-Added more forest
-Forest texturing
-Some more detail on hills
-Some work on the sea
-Ice texture
-Frame (Possibly temporary, let me know what you think of it)


As always, I love feedback, let me know what you think!

Much better , but I would not use the shadow effect on the forest, in my opinion somehow it makes them look flat and breaks the painterly brush style .

Alright, here's another update, not huge changes. I'm also testing a wooden frame for the edge.

As always, feedback is appreciated!

That looks awesome, Josiah

Thanks John, that means a lot coming from you

To be honest, I love everything about this. It's a shame you won't be doing rivers, but I hope maybe you'll develop this style in other maps too!

My only niggle is: why is there a big gap between the fjordland coastline and the islands off that coast? You'd think with a coast like that the islands would be much closer. But that's not much of a niggle as I'm sure there could be good reasons for it.

I'm super glad you like it Jonathon, I wasn't sure how it would turn out in the end.
Your nitpick with the islands isn't my call, I'm working off the clients predetermined coastlines.

It looks amazing, Josiah ! I especially love the way you made the forests on the mountains. Really well done

Thanks MistyBee!

Thanks for the feedback Naima, I think it's a bit less noticeable now.
