Map 02 - Chashio (The Fey Country)

[J.Edward]

That is awesome. I love those mountains, along with the mood/atmosphere.
There's a great sense of scale in that valley above Hag. And the pinched valley leading to the lake is quite nice.
Sometime we're gonna have to skype - I suspect you have tons of wonderful ideas and concepts swirling in your head

This is really great! The artwork is very similar to Games Workshops Mordheim game. Awesome stuff!

[Chashio]

Delivering nightmares [check] Thanks Lingon!

Thanks for the great feedback John - and for the mountains... I wasn't quite sure how to begin on this except that those little squiggles of yours reminded me of hagfish.

Wow! That's a very cool map.

Hope they keep the individual maps as well as the combined map so we don't lose all that great imagery.

Very nicely done.

The whole big challenge and all the threads will be archived in the challenge archives.
So all the threads and maps should be preserved.

So very grimdark! Me like. Especially that dog (horse?)-skull-headed thingy.

Thanks Savage Orc, and Diamond

Nice gloomy atmosphere.
Where did you find the image with the man and raven on the left side. Quite impressive and giving a Strange turn to the whole composition. Like if he was watching the world with unknown intents.

Looks great so far Chasio!

It's all original painting without reference, except for the thing that Diamond pointed out; that was the first thing I sketched to set the tone and was referenced in part from a photo found on Pinterest that actually made me shiver, though I mean to change it a bit more to make it better fit evolving ideas and story. The rest is all my own stuff made from ideas and seeing things emerge from my loose sketching process... like catching a glimpse of something in the murk of the background or the edges of a brushstroke and strengthening the idea with contrast and additional information to bring it to life.
