You are really dedicated !

[Ilanthar]

Merci Thomas!
So, mountains are done mostly done in the north part. I'm doing some tests about colors/rivers/border.
Not exactly what I want, but a start nontheless.

I'm almost done with the mountains. It lacks some details in the south part, but it's coming to an end.

I'm soon gonna be able to work on the other elements.
I've been wondering about what to do with the seas/oceans... I kinda want an atlas style, but it's rather empty right now.

That's an impressive amount of detail.
And of time spent.

I'm looking forward to see what you do with the land and rivers.

Oh, Ilanthar, that's such a huge work on this one ! I can't wait to see how it will look like at the end. If it's similar to the System View in quality, which is one of my favorite map ever, you'll have a masterpiece !!

Thanks bkh1914 .

Merci beaucoup! I hope I'll be able to do a similar quality with this... But truth is that this kind of map is way more time consuming and difficult for me to work on, so I would not bet on it...
But you can bet that I'll try !!

I tried something about the waters. Not sure it works and I know the pattern is a bit too obvious at a certain distance. I intend to break it a bit with additional elements.
I've also started to rework some elements like stamps (the one for the Argonautes's Company too, but it has no purposes on this map) and key/scale.

And some more mountains details, ofc ... (I'm really close to the finish with those). Did they look realistic btw?

Zoomed in, the sea clashes with the coastline. While your mountain work extremely well (believable and well done), the sea-land transition screams "digital".

[Ilanthar]

Merci Thomas !
Yup, It was one of the things I suspected with this... And reassuring about the mountains .
Those mountains of Osininka are done .

I tried some coastal ring and some coloring of the land. And for a better contrast, lowered the sea opacity again...
I'm really having troubles finding a good contrast/coloring with a good legibility both between sea/lands and mountains/lands... but maybe that's because I'm trying a lot of new brushes and change often my mind .

Another test for the lands. I think I like it a bit better.
