Unnamed Regional Map (WIP) - Concept Test

[snodsy]

Really beautiful job, like how the hills pop out of the forests, although the forests are dense I think it's nice. You may either want to make a couple of your label frames slightly larger or make your text slightly smaller, since on a few they are really, really tight to the edges. To stay consistent I'd just reduce the font 1-2 pts. Nice job, looking forward to seeing more.

I'm not certain if I can "fix" the issue with the brush I've used for the forests. It's a custom full color brush, not just an outline brush. If I used the latter the end result would look utterly horrible as there would be a constant overlap, and avoiding that would make drawing it all by hand look like a short breeze of a task in comparison. What I've done here is use the full brush, fill it in from north to south, then select it all with CTRL+Leftclick on Layer, added a new layer on which I used a 1px stroke. Can't go less bold then 1px.

Hey Snodsy, I only placed the labels there so you guys could get a bit of an idea for the naming and the locations I was shooting for; they aren't even part of my working file.
