Malazan: Lether & Kolanse

[joshuabbutler]

Hi All,

I've finished my latest addition to my Malazan map series. It might be my last in this style. This time I've explored the continent with the Lether Empire and Kolanse.

Thanks,
Josh

I also have a map on Genabackis, but I haven't posted here.

I really like this greyscale style. It is very clean.

Well, I think you already know that I'm a big fan of this line of maps...they look good and they also depict my favorite fantasy-novel setting. So I really do hope that you'll do your color version as well And if you have maps you didn't show us yet, I hope you'll do so in the future.

This particular map has some nice little additions to it, i think. It's more diverse than the earlier ones with more elements...or at least that's my initial reaction (maybe I'm wrong and my memory is just faulty ^^). A very nice and clean map, and as i said, I hope we'll see the color version of it as well. If i can, I'll rep. you.

The grayscale and overall clean layout really hit home for me. The gritty textures you used for plains/wastelands is really great, too.

Thanks Eilathen, I want to start doing in color, I just need to find my style. maybe I will just do it in the style of my previous color maps.

Yeah? Just out of curiosity, what are you planning on next, if you think this might be the last one in this style?

I too have enjoyed the maps you've made in this series. Especially liking the little settlement icons you've used in this and previous maps.

I might have a color version coming soon...

I'm not sure what I will do next. When I started making these maps, I was using the first cheap ipad that could use the apple pencil, so I made the artboard small, so it would crash less frequently. I'd like to do something poster size. I did start making a color version of this map, and it is looking decent. But, it would be nice if I could up-res it and redraw the lines to make this bigger.

I was thinking of a city, maybe. I don't know. Finding time now with covid makes things difficult.

Nice addition to the collection!
