    Wip Jan / Feb '17 Lite Challenge: The Vivrim Coasts

    Well, I (very) unsuccessfully tried to enter the last couple of challenges, so this time I'd thought I'd at least make a start on it before throwing my hat into the ring.

    Still a fair way to go, but this time a work in progress actually exists. Right here on the forum. Just below this text.

    Everything is subject to change really. I'm sure plenty of tweaking will happen. A lot more linework needs adding and some sort of border too most likely. I'll also probably either age the font I'm using a bit or might try doing a weird font by hand if I have time. I'm also in the middle of designing an kraken/squid type compass rose I've been meaning to have a go at since that compass rose challenge ages ago last year. We'll see how it turns out.


    Feedback is always welcome, though early days yet.

    Hi Greg, Nice start. Very evocative.

    For some reason I can't see you WIP when I look at the thumbnails? I tried clearing my cache etc didn't help.

    Thanks Jim. When I checked to start with it was there, but having just rechecked you're right and it's not appearing. I'm on my phone right now though so perhaps it's to do with that since Bogie is still getting it. No idea, bit hopefully whatever it is will sort itself out before the end.

    Echoing what others have said, that's a nice parchment. I like the crease too (definitely an innuendo), it looks really worn and old.
