I accidentally named the thread wrong.
It should be called "Aug/Sept/Oct '22 Lite Challenge: Voneg, The Citnalt Empire's Capitol".
Hi, this is the base heightmap of the setting of Voneg, the Capitol of the Citnalt Empire.
Base.png
Obtained as a cutout of a map from Azgaar's world map generator.
It's set on the XVIII century, with that age's fortifications and tech.
This is the most advanced I've got until now:

_____
LEGEND:
Green: main coastal defensive structures (castles, batteries, etc)
Green line across the bay: chain that is rised to not let passage to enemy boats.
Purple: Dam/dock (to keep outside waves from disturbing the water inside the bay)
Red: Arsenal (surrounded by its own wall)
Dark blue rectangle: arsenal dock (surrounded by military shipyards)
White: Squares, for trading, saling, fish auctioning, markets, etc.
Blue lines: main roads and streets
Black surrounding lines: Walls and earth fortifications
Orange squares: city doors
Black lines concentric to the water: Sewers/rivers
___
Size estimation: The arsenal entrance from the bay should be at least 57 meters wide at the narrowest point.
Pending things: I have to design the walls, a better arsenal water entrance, some more streets, some docks and the Palace or castle of the rulers. Other things too...

I moved the arsenal to another zone of the city for ease of supply and ease of access and design. Now it's within an enclosure isolated from the main city, and the center is available to put a palace or the medieval city.

Looking good, but don't forget to use the WIP tag everytime you post an update.

As seen on the last map, The city is nearing too much to the border of the map, so I'll make the map size a bit bigger.
This is the extended map without much detail past the borders of the city:

It's BIG (2000x2000px) so It should have enough space to draw a nice map border. But for now I'll work on the insides of the city.
Coming along nicely. Love the layout.
I've come to the realization that my map is going to be at a small scale (little detail) city map, with little detail and multiple harbours and lots of infrastructure highlighted.
