Map


Created in: Freehand Drawing; Digital Coloring

Review
TheHorseWhisperer has been creating some fantastic hand drawn maps of late, but this one really takes the cake. The detail work of the drawing is incredible. There's so much see that every time I look at the map I find something new. I don't think I've seen any map with that many ships at port either. Beyond the detail the isometric drawing was skillfully executed and the colors are very nice. All in all a terrific piece worthy of our Cartographers Choice award.

This map was drawn freehand, and then coloured, shaded, and annotated digitally. The work took a total of 87 days, 55 days of which were spent on the drawing.

Thanks everybody! I am honoured to be awarded a CC for a map I so enjoyed making. As everyone always says (because it's true), the comments and advice offered in these forums is incredible. I've been away a lot lately, but I'll try to hang out round here a lot more, once again.
