Ilanthar's tests & sketches

[- JO -]

Amazing! You've really developed your own style, and you're very good at expressing it in so many different forms, moods and eras. Over the years, I'm pretty sure I'd recognize one of your works "blind"... (almost...)

Thank you very much ! Well, I'm focusing on some of those styles lately. It surely helps .

I'm placing labels. For now, my coloring tests are not so convincing.

Some more. I'm working on labelling & colors.

Most of the labels are there. I added some snow on the higher summits. Probably close to the final map.
What would you add?

I think I will finally opt for a hatched style for my Eldoran world map(s). Looks like I eventually catched it for this scale too.

The next step. The topography of Tarsis and surrounding islands is finished.

The result is magnificent, the whole rendering very coherent, the choice of colours, the mountains and the sea (right down to the font). It must take an incredible amount of time, doesn't it?

Love the style, but its a little hard to see, is because of the map size ?

Thanks a lot my friend ! Well, I intend to color the lands in the end. And well, it takes time, but less than my modern topography style (plus I'm wining time by relying on the previous version).

Thanks ! It's final size and actually a bit larger than the previous version. If you would like to zoom in more, that's a good sign for me imo .

PS : I think I'm gonna resurrect my old thread since I"m working on this on my spare time.

Small progresses on the map... but I got an itch for a new character sheet (with a lighter and more action oriented system), so...

I precise that I intend to do a different vitruvian sketch for every species (yes I'm crazy) :
