    Every time you post a map such as this one (and the parchment thing is the cherry on top of the cake), I gaze at it in amazement, despair a lot thinking about the heights you dwell in, think about quitting and feeding my maps to the goats and finally, I take out my pens and start climbing again with a new motivation Thanks for sharing. And a little question, what is the original size ?

    PS : It's even better than Thendrais !!

    Even in basic outline form these are some nice sketches!

    Thanks Thomas
    This one was not a particularly large map to start with. 1920 x 1080 at 300dpi.
    It was all digital, after a very quick rough sketch of just the coastline.
    So, it's in a very different class than Thendrais, to me.
    All the parchment was digital work, which can be easier. Also, working smaller can be easier too.
