A friend of mine is working on a campaign based on the books about The Black Company by Glen Cook, and asked me if I could make a nice map for him.

I said yes...

I had a hard time finding any good ( http://wraggj.people.cofc.edu/blackco/north.jpg ) reference-maps but my friend finally found one and scanned me a copy of a map that was in one of the books (at least I think he told me it was from one of the books).

And here's my meager start. 300dpi 80X40cm (so it's a large one). Just border and coastlines yet.

Gonna do a portolan grid, some kind of compass rose and a legend-scroll...
