The Southern Realms of Arlon (My first offering to the Guild)

For your second map, it is very clean, and kudos on powering through that forest style, quite the tedious effort that one is.

I have but one critique, and it may be a personal preference, so bear with me. The uniform spacing of the elements throughout your piece makes my chaotic brain yearn for some variance. You definitely achieved that placement variety in certain areas, but there seems to be a habit of always placing the next element just as far away as the other element, which to me, makes the piece look unnatural over all.

Just a thought, hope that helps. Do you plan to try color?

Thanks! And I know what you mean about the spacing. I was going for a more iconographic/tolkien-esque style but I intend to mess with the basic framework more in future maps to mix things up a bit.

I hadn't thought about colour but I might give it a go if I get a chance to print this off soon and have a play around.
