    Map The Kingdom in the clouds (Guildworld 25)

    After all this time I finally completed my map. It hasn't been easy and the result could have been better but I learned a lot during this time.



    The original thread


    The complete map at a lower quality (still not so bad)

    And for the curious, 4 parts at higher quality

    This is glorious Azelor and congratulations for finishing it The colours and the textures are superb. I like the forests and orchards but what I'm really impressed with is the (I think) arable land and the way it looks like it is divided into different fields. Do you use brushes or patterns or something for that?

    Oh and what is the punishment for smuggling large flat metal disc shaped resonant percussive instruments into that province in the south west? I'm erm asking for a friend.

    Now that is a resolution i call useful! Very much appreciated. You can really look at all the splendid details. Awesome map!

    I love the Asian flavor it portrays...very well done. And there are some really...special clouds

    Hopefully, you'll do more maps in that style. How about a nice Asian themed world map

    If i can, I'll Rep. you.

    Holy smokes Azelor! This is incredible!
    I really hope you didn't hand draw all those forests and farms.. The detail is simply stunning, it makes it feel like a massive, realistic, expansive land.
    The colour blending is really excellent, it makes the different biomes seem alive and realistic.

    I can't say enough good about this, it deserves a CC award!

    Thank Straf. I did not use a brush for that. Once I had a area large enough, I started using the duplication tool. Then, it's just about filling the gaps.

    And sorry I did not get the joke.
    Smuggling things there is about as easy and exiting it would be to go from West Antarctica to East Antarctica.

    That was my goal, it's good to know that I have succeeded. The major drawback is that it took a long time to make.

    This is really special; a true labor of love. It feels like a living realm, like you actually mapped a real place.
