    Map Travinas (Nightvale setting)

    I did the lineart map for Razörfist's Nightvale setting about two years ago as something he'd use as a print at home and as orientation for his own world-building.

    Recently, I set out to color it, mostly to get back into a good workflow. Turns out coloring a map that what was originally built just as lineart requires a bit more thought and some rework and additions rather than just slapping color and shading on it. Still, I'm very happy with the final product!

    I've had to add colour to a greyscale map in the past as well, and found it surprisingly challenging as well. But this came out very nice, good job! I like the spiky coast of the Rift.

    Yes, the workflow is somewhat different, so I had to rework more parts than I initially assumed. I mean, there were a few of them that I had wanted to change anyway, but it was still a surprise.

    The Rift is a tectonically active faultline, so it's a vast swath of ocean that is extremely treacherous to pass and serves as a natural barrier to the north.
