Reply With QuoteHere you have a small sample of the the new area I'm working on and this valley is called the "valley of tears".
I made changes to the sea shore layer as the previous one was not that good.

Looking brilliant, Pasis...the mountains are simply wonderful.
Yeah, you are doing some magic here. Very beautiful and can't wait to see some more progress.
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.

Time for a bigger update. I'm still stuck on all the small details, but its starting to get a proper shape. I encourage you to look into the details as all the cliffs and river bends and small forest are there on purpose.
But enough said...let the map talk for itself.
Continuing goodness...keep up the nice work!

I like that peninsula...looks very steppe-y. Trees seem to have a bit of 3d, pop up in ya face kind of feel that looks real cool...almost real. Nice stuff.

Starting to look pretty good. You'll deserve some rep for this
So vibrant...so beautiful. I'm jealous of your skillz.
This style is perhaps my favorite of the many styles I've bumped into on the forums. I've been trying like crazy for several days now, to execute this mountain style in my own efforts, but have been unable to. The best I can come up with looks very much like 3D fishbones, not the sweeping slopes of some of Pasis' latest examples.
I was wondering, if maybe I could talk Pasis or other members who have had good success from the tutorial, to maybe chime in with a more explicit set of mountain raising instructions. I'm not sure where my disconnect is: it could be my fledgling photoshop skills, or even weaknesses in my artistic ability. I reckon the best help would be a video tutorial, but not everybody has the time or ability to assemble one of these.
If needed I can post my attempts and then ask direct questions regarding the tutorial instructions, if that would work better. Anyway, love the style, hope folks can help, and happy mapping!
