Here are some close-ups. I'm dropping crumbs over the next week or so.
I have them over on Twitter and on Tumblr.
Might do Instagram too, idk. It's more trouble on IG.

you know... I still have those games on cd. I have played them many times, but I never actually finished them!

J Edward, these maps look fantastic, as always!

Sometimes doing a big map is daunting, but I'm glad they wanted a big map for this.
It allowed me to do more stuff inthere.

Thanks Storm
Ya know, I'm not sure that I finished all of them either.
I know I used to deal with game crashes all the time.

A few more close-ups....

There is much that I like in this map but the real exceptional stuff is; Baldur's Gate the Town and Iron Throne Mines. I really like Cloakwood and the High Hedge too. This map has me excited to dive into a new mapping project. Great stuff!

This map reminds me of "Embers in the Ashes" Map; http://www.fantasticmaps.com/2015/05...-in-the-ashes/

Not quite the same scale but similar styles. Did that map influence you at all?
Your detail reminds me of that map.

Again, Epic stuff!

Breathtaking. As far I as I remember, the best map I've seen from this region.
And thanks for sharing those close-ups, it's both interesting and another proof of your talent .

Awesome, Thanks Galendae
No, i do like Torstan's maps, but it wasn't an inspiration for this.
I think it may have been the map for BG 2 that I tried to get a feel from.
They had some nice rolling hills there.
But, it's also just an extension of my style that is somewhat inspired by Raisz.

I hope it stands well over time.

And a few more close-ups.
Tomorrow is another big update.
