Actually I don' t really know, this is more some workflow/process sharing than some real tutorials (tat would need more detailed explanations).

Wow, those newest samples are absolutely stunning. A very nice new style. Looking forward to the whole map.
Have a Like.

Thanks Eilathen. Actually it might take time before you'll see the whole map since it's involved in a commissioned project

This thread is great and very enlightening.

Max: I am curious about what sort of settings you generally use for the brush tool and such so I'd love to hear some of the details if you don't mind!

On any map in particular?

Today, some fun with a little B&W map drawn only with mouse, playing with the fade option of the opacity and sizes jitter in the brushes settings.

Thanks for encouraging the noobs like me with only mouse maps. Talent is what we need, not tools.

I'm gonna try it right now.


Edited: Tweaking with Illustrator and of course only mouse...
