    Map The Land of Snow and Ice

    So, here's the map i made of the northern part of my fantasy World. I've written and published four novels about it and since the brasilian edition didn't have a map at all and readers asked about it I decided to do a new map altogether. Some names are in portuguese because they were translated for the novels and the rest I just had to do in English this time

    Tried to make it look like a "real" map… It took a little time but the result is quite satisfying. I used KMAlexander's map resources mainly in the forests and mountains.
    Hope you like it.

    Thank you very much!
    Originally the map had 400 Place names but the file had to be huge for them all to be readable so this is a "simplified" map.
    Anyway I was fighting myself between two choices - a coloured map or Black and white like this. Decided on this type because I was looking for a "historical" feeling.

    Great work! This map is a showpiece for KMAlexander's brushes. You sure put them to good use, and the whole is definitely more than the sum of its parts.

    Thank You, KMAlexander - I really did find them more than useful. The problem was that there were so many brushes But they sure were precious! The work You have done for everyone is incredible! I'll post the colour map soon here, too
