    These fields are the reason why I am not happy with this map. And that's why I put this map here, not in the finished map section.
    Well, I'm still learning how to draw.

    New map.
    My first approach to the Sword Coast. I have never drawn maps for D&D before, so this is an interesting challenge for me.
    Work in progress.

    Do you find that makes a difference with your art? If it's for a game? If so, why? Perhaps evoking the feel of the genre?

    Always drawing a new world unknown to me, I feel a challenge.

    And I always wonder how to draw a map to make it look like it was drawn by a cartographer living in this world.
