The almost embossed rivers, the shading of the forests, the coastal waves and the illustration ... so much wins in this map ...
Hey all,
I was commissioned a couple of months ago to draw a map for author Amy Harmon and her new YA fantasy book, the Bird and the Sword. I've also attached a picture of the greyscale version one can see in the book.
Hope you'll like it. As usual, feel free to rep, rate or run away

Lovely piece Max, as usual! I especially like the title illustration! Great job!

Yep, like it a lot. Simple yet effective. Well done, Max.
And i am glad that authors start to use the talent around here. If fantasy novels start to use such excellent maps as default, i am full of joy *remembers all the books with awful maps or, even worse, with no map at all* ... *shudders*

Still I reach out for the Stars
Gorgeous shading that works so well both in the colour and B&W versions. The sword/title illustration is fantastic!

Indeed, great to see a new regional map from your hands max! I love how well the greyscale printed version works.
Thanks much all you guys
Beautiful as always Max. Love the elegant simplicity.
Cheers,
