Sept / Oct 2016 Lite Challenge: The Knights of Camelot

[Voolf]

Super work GLS. You really put a lot of work into it.
I am trying to draw a illustration of a castle just like you did here, but i have extreme difficulties because there is a lot of curves and diagonal lines which i am horrible with drawing with tablet.

Anyway, i like you work very much, worth a rep!

This is amazing! I love it. I adore the banner just above the title and the sense that it's blowing in the wind. Just great work on this, GLS!

Thanks ChickPea! Yeah, it looked a bit dull when I was experimenting so thought a little movement to it couldn't hurt.

Thanks for the rep Voolf!

The castle was quite a challenge to draw and come up with the design. I got plenty of inspiration from real life castles though as well as my brain. However, I think true credit has to go to some fellow cartographers on here such as Blaidd Drwg and Tainotim, who really helped inspire the style and helped get me to picture the perspectives better.

Looks great, GLS! I love the combination of the castle, the top-down maps and the heraldry. The one thing that stands out to me at the moment is the road leading up to the castle - it's so white!

In Ser Perseval's description "Table" is spelled "Tabel".

Other than that, I think it looks very good.

Thanks rdan and well spotted! Here's a corrected version. I'm pleased that was spotted before the challenge ended. I've already correct a few, but I knew I'd makes more mistakes in all that text.

Thanks, Poison. Yeah, I agree, it is fairly white, but I think it works okay.

[Bogie]

The roads in Camelot were paved in marble of course!

[Greg]

Haha, exactly Bogie!

I really like this GLS! I love that castle!!! It's absolutely beautiful, and this whole thing looks like something you would see in a book about Arthurian legend... fabulous job!

Unfortunately, I can't rep you yet! I guess I need to go spread some around

Thanks, Storm, I really appreciate that.

Oh and no worries about the rep, it's sometimes frustratingly easy to run out on the Guild when there is just so much quality work being produced.
