Attention J.

Thanks Azelor!

That looks sweet Ilanthar.
I like it even more with the banner.
I'll get it in on the next update of the map.

Isn't Moon a reference to the Earth's moon named Moon? If yes, then it's pretty ambitious!

well, you got me! I was thinking of our Guildworld's moon (much closer I guess). But my Nanta people are worshipping the moon, so the capital is in order.

OK, it has been a long run to do the contours from the previous map, but, here I am with the second version. Strangely enough, forests are not working the same as on my Verdugo Island, so I changed them a bit...

Every C&C much welcome!

Huh, thought it was finished. But... more! Hoorah!

Don't have much to say, looks nice.

Funny I just noticed on the thumbnail how the ocean looks a bit repeating, but meh, it's fine. Nobody'll notice it. I don't even know if it is a repeating texture or the texture is naturally like that.

Interesting and different. I like it. I do wish for a stronger line on the coast than the rest of the contours, though maybe the color change is enough.

[Ilanthar]

Thank you both!

It's indeed a texture. This is a version without it. Do you find it better?

I've done a test with a second bright line along the coast. I hope it works!

So a bit more and a few corrections. Next, probably the cities and labels!

That's a good choice! I think the subtle added effect is just enough to differentiate the coast from the other contour lines.

[Ilanthar]

Glad it works .

I corrected the - I don't know why - darker first contour line (the best I could). I did the rivers a bit brighter and added a layer on the forests to try a more subtle render.

Still undecided about cities... I don't know if I'm gonna keep the sea lines this way either.

[Ilanthar]

A few tests. I used the same kind of cities as on my Verdugo map, just with more symbols. And a test on the labels + a few corrections.
