    Well done! Do you take commission work? Do you only do prints on paper or other material as well?

    this is gorgeous, though I don't think marking Occident and Orient on a world map like this makes much sense, unless I;m misunderstanding something.

    First of all, this map is amazing. The level of detail is staggering. The hemispherical design makes a lot of sense, and all the little bits of lore and art that surround it are very interesting and beautiful too. The maps themselves are of course gorgeous.
    I will say this, though: I find the font size, both in and around the maps, is too small for my taste. I can barely read the map labels and the nation names on the scrolls. The names next to the colored circles (which I think are ethnic groups?) are almost illegible. I don't think it'd hurt the map composition to enlarge the font, if just slightly.
    Also, I'm having some difficulty understanding the two small central maps. Do they in fact show ethnic or racial groupings? A label that explains what are supposed to represent would've been nice.
    But overall, an incredible map, very much worthy of all of the awards and praise and stuff.

    I'll allow myself to explain on Ilanthar's behalf: the words 'occident' and 'orient' in their original Latin meanings simply referred to the part of the sky where the sun set and rose, respectively, so essentially just 'west' and 'east'. Later the words came to be used in a geopolitical/cultural context of 'Western' and 'Eastern' countries, specifically Europe and the Middle and/or Far East. I'd say using the words in their original, , meaning makes perfect sense on any kind of world map.

    An amazing piece of work here! The map truly shows a piece of work that really inspires me to do large scale maps like this! I'll be back with some rep!

    A beautiful map indeed! I love it! The style of the border is intricately delicious, as are the mountains. Yum.

    I just love that overall mapping style. So no wonder i do love this map. I wish we could see the full-res. Is there a place to read up on the world itself? I'm curious.

    Now that i think about it...didn't you start a WIP for this map here? Did i miss the progress on that WIP or didn't you post progress updates?

    Anyway, a beautiful map, no question. And the little art-pieces just give it so much more depth and flavor (although i do love me some maps-only versions as well ). If i can, I'll Rep. you (but it might be too early).
