Mar/Apr '21 Lite Challenge: Springever town

[Simkin]

So I will jump in with a city named Springever because of it's climate. With a temperature that change from 15 to 30 degrees in a year, this town is close to a big desert and protect one of the latest dragon tree, a sacred tree of elves and ancients human tribes of the zone.

Really nice start here! I am glad someone else is in the challenge!

I like the linework so far. My only suggestion would be regarding the wagon tracks going through the gate when put in with pen I think they may be a bit stark against the roads. I would recommend a style more similar to some I have seen done by JEdward or Voolf (I believe they have done this at least). Just a suggestion though and this looks great so far!

[Bogie]

Welcome to the challenge Simkin! I agree with Arimel, very nice!

[Simkin]

Thanks for the advice Arimel, I will try to make it softer.

I've started the ink process, I will use colored pens (and probably no colours).

I've finished the map. Now the lettering and then the border.

Excellent linework!

[Arimel]

Looks good! I like the different types of trees you have incorporated here.
Adding some clouds or something in the sky above might help 'remove' the large empty space there. The border and title etc. might help as well though.

[Simkin]

Thank you both. I added some clouds and did the "borders". Now I have to decide if I'm gonna do the description manually or with Gimp.

Wow. That extra bit at the top really brought the map together. Really nice.
