    Map Map of Ulrizen

    Hello!

    This is the map I drew for the last challenge. The goal was to take a map we drew a long time ago and redo it. I took a map I had drawn for a Dungeon&Dragon adventure that we never played. I tried to give it a medieval look (because it's an old map... even though I'm not that old ) and also that this map tells the story I wanted my friends to play (the beginning of which is written in the frames). I've been a bit taken by time, and most of the details of the map have been copied or adapted from existing illuminations. In the end, the result doesn't really reflect what I had in mind, but at least I tried...

    The map was mostly drawn on PS.

    Many thanks to those who gave encouragement and advice during the challenge.

    And here's a comparative illustration that gives you an idea of what the original map, which is about 30 years old, looked like

    Thanks Domino and Arimel ! The funny thing is that most of these illustrations date back to the Middle Ages... our ancestors already had a great imagination, and a lot of mischief...

    Your illustrations look particularly faithful to the medieval aesthetic.

    The knights and the monsters seem to come straight from an illumination.

    As for the improvement you shown, I think it speaks for itself. Very good job !

    Thanks a lot !
    It's the whole impression that I find a bit far from medieval style... But I'm glad you liked it ! Thanks for the encouragements !
