Dec/Jan 2016 Lite Map Challenge: Plane of Darkness

[jpstod]

The Plane of Darkness
Void of All Light as far as you can see. Light absorbed entirely into the Darkness
You can hear the wind, distants sounds, you can hear movement near and far

It's awful dark JP,,, Could you lighten it up a bit so I can see the details?

[waldronate]

I approve. It's a bit lower-resolution than I'd like to see, but the basic elements are well executed.

Very nice map JP. I agree that the resolution is a little bit low, but you can still see it well enough. I really like the placement of all the elements. Overall it looks great. Good job, definitely rep-worthy.

I tried to lighten it up some but all the light keep getting absorbed when I submit it

[waldronate]

One way to punch this up might be to use some grunge brushes like I did in this one: https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...ad.php?t=33598 (the grunge adds an edginess to the image that you can't get with the clean-cut style that you have here).

All I can see is a completely black square. No image at all

[Mouse]

Oh! I get it

Its one of those fancy modern art things isn't it? One of those pictures where your brain makes up the image for you if you stare at it for long enough... isn't it?

[ChickPea]

As black as my soul... I approve!

All I can see is a completely black square. No image at all

Ummmm... maybe the link in Waldronate's comment no. 6 might give you an inkling what's going on.

Stunning map jp. It is almost as i can feel the sadness and sorrow of the void... oblivion...
and that light trying to escape the darkness... what a brilliant idea and execution.... damn you are skilled
