The Skytower

[kimni]

Hello,
first map post here...

Most of the maps I've made are regional maps, but I tried a castle this time (because I'm writing a story that will spend some time there, and I wanted to have a reference for what is where to keep things consistent).
It got a little out of hand... I stumbled over this amazing WIP thread (http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...ad.php?t=29060), and fell in love with the style, so I tried to get something similar (though a lot less detailed).
This is the first castle I've tried to map, so I hope the layout makes sense... any feedback would be great.

Quite a few of us are quite taken by Steffen's style!

I don't see any issues that stick out about the layout. I like it - it feels very much like a castle that has grown into a grand fortress. Those number spots though - I recommend changing the colour from grey to white or very light grey - black on mid-grey is hard to read. I have to peer in to read the number.

Thanks!
You're right about the numbers. I'll make them lighter. I think I originally put the grey as a placeholder before I decided what colour to use, and then forgot to change it later...

I would say that you replicated the style pretty well. Great job !
