Outstanding. I found myself going back and forth to the key to find out what I was looking at. Simply brilliant!

The long wait paid off! If having to wait that long for something this beautiful is the only thing I have to do, it's well worth it! Sadly I am unable to give you any Rep![]()
Lovely map THW! I love the almost painting like quality of the map... like some expert watercolourist had decided to do an impression of his home city![]()

Beautiful map THW!! Thank you very much for you hard work on this project! I must say it did feel like much less than 87 days. Good luck with your future commissions!

That's pretty amazing. Don't have much to add beyond that, so have some rep!
Thanks a lot everyone!

An absolutely fantastic map! And as I usually say, there are never any short cuts if you want to make a good looking map.
When you say you spent 55 days drawing this, is that full time days or more like a couple of hours a day days, if you get what I mean.

Great job THW ! I'll probably be the only one who has a few neatpicks but wellI already mentioned the perspective issues in the WIP thread so no doubt you will improve it on your next works, and I also think that the linework quality could be improved. Tjis will turn a good map into an even better one

Oh, come on Max
Great map THW, I've followed the WIP from the beginning and it turned out very well.
Stunning THW, just stunning! It turned out even better than I expected, and I already had high hopes! It's evident that you not only put a lot of time and effort into drawing this, but also put a lot of thought into the general layout to really illustrate the versatility of a city. Except nit-picking, I really don't have anything to criticize here.
Your WIP was highly inspiring to follow, with a equally inspiring final result. Can't wait to see what your next undertaking will be!
Ps/ I actually don't agree with Max on his comment above. I really don't see the issue in the perspective. Sure, there are a few wrong lines, but other than that it's consistent through and through. The only thing I see that might be wrong with it is that it's different from the perspectives usually seen for these kind of maps around the guild – but personally, I think that's a good thing. Long as you are consistent with it, it works, and I for one wouldn't want it to change
Cheers,
