The City of Brabak (The Dark Eye)

[SteffenBrand]

Hey there!

Long time no see, I've been super busy working on different projects in development, but there are a few nuggets I can share.

Brabak, the plague-spot of the south, is situated in the marshy Mysob delta as the southernmost colonial port-city under the Harpy Flag, attracting freethinkers and exiles alike. The map was created for the TableTop RPG "The Dark Eye". I included an ingame-snippet I made for an adventure there on the bottom, too. The map is in German, and I included some of the many WIPs.

Really cool looking map! I love all the different ship types.

[Tom]

Very nice map indeed Steffen, I like how the design evolved in the WIP!

[SteffenBrand]

@Arimel: Thanks! Yeah, I remember we pushed to diversify them, it is an important multinational port after all =)

@Tom: Thank you very much!

[Marc Moureau]

Quite clean and efficient, as usual with your maps Steffen !

The WIP is a most welcome addition.

To be honest, I particularly enjoy your sepia maps, for the added sense of authenticity.

Keep up the great work !

Great map, Steffen! I love your shading for topography and choice of colors.

[SteffenBrand]

@Marc Moureau: Thank you, Marc! Yeah, they are fairly easy and quick to make, I really enjoy making them TBQH. =)

@Ilanthar: Thanks! Yeah, these are aspects I've focused on a lot lately, glad you like it! EDIT: And thanks for the Rep! =)

Love it, as usual! I love how the colours came out in the full version. The little snippet is a really cool addition, I always enjoy seeing multiple versions of a map (or parts of it). Thanks for including the WIP shots too, they are always interesting to see.

Very, very good work, as always! I really like the different variations of your style. In this case, a lot of care has been taken to read the map and its different elements, and it is very successful!

@Kellerica: Thank you very much, Kellerica! Yeah, I do enjoy seeing WIPs myself, so why not. Incremental saving probably provided me with about 10 or so for this one. =)

@ - JO -: Thank you so much! Glad you found it easily readable, I'm trying to change up a few things in my style to offset some habits I developed and hearing that kinda makes me happy =)

Have a great Sunday!
