    Map ANteluvia -- Commission

    I've finished Anteluvia, a private commission ordered as a surprise by the GM for his tabletop group of several years. It's deliberately without most labels so that the world can be explored together (I suppose naming the cities was a compromise to at least have some orientation). Loved doing this, as I'm always happy to do lineart maps. The original is an A2 format.

    Nice!

    Looks like you solved most of the weight issue on the left of the map! Well done! Good line art too. (It is a bit strange how much darker the line art is to the north though. But that is a smaller nitpick)

    All in all, good job. And congrats on the commission.

    Excellent map in your efficient style! I must confess that the line art is also what I usually prefer to do.

    My first guess would be it's because of the stronger emphasis the style of the coniferous forests requires: it's both the lineart outline of the trees plus horizontal hatching, so it's more on the nose, so to speak, than the southern jungles.

    Doing the lineart always has something very 'back to the roots' to it. And since I'm currently in the process of converting a former B&W map to a color version I've once again come to realize how much more straightforward 'just' doing the lineart is.

    The map for my novel has to look something just like this!
