    Default September 2021 Challenge: Kelemnia

    I decided to use this image:

    This will be a sort of post-apocalyptic Greek-ish setting, where various city-states are rebuilding, fighting amongst themselves and against the horrors of the Western Wastes.

    The shield designs are not mine; they're all over Pinterest, but I can't track down a source. I think they might be from one of the Assassin's Creed games though.

    The parchment overlay is courtesy of Kellerica. Thanks, Kell!!!

    You mean the mountains? If you have photoshop, it's really just playing around with Clouds, Difference Clouds, and Bevel/Emboss. There's some good tutorials on here, especially the ones Ascension posted back in the day.

    Here's some labelling done, always the most time-consuming part of a map for me. I'll probably recycle some names from older maps, but I'll try to mostly avoid that.

    haha, I was looking through the challenge thumbs first not knowing who has entered this month's challenge so far and I thought, this is probably Diamond, and yup it was yours. This is coming along really well. And the corner art is striking. Love it.
