    Well, I seem to have got a 64 bit system and version of Win 10

    Here's the rest of the info - just in case this isn't about the RAM at all, but the processor, or the bus, or a combination of poor equipment.

    It looks like you have the same PC as my old one (it's also a HP Pavilion, intel i34, 64 bits, 4Go RAM) : not a surprise you encountered the same problems as me with te Win10 last big update !
    I'm working on my new one and its 16 Go of RAM and I can assure you it's going sooooo smooth and pleasantly! The autosave in Krita are so quickly done they are almost unnoticeable, for example.

    Back on the map : the details of that cliff are really well done ! Are you starting with the colors?

    In that case, 'snap'

    Unfortunately I think the best I will be able to do is add another 4GB to it. It really will be a couple of years before I can afford to get a new machine - reconditioned second hand or otherwise. I just hope its not the particular architecture of HP Pavillions that's causing some or all of the problem, or even doing that will be a bit of a waste of time and money.

    Yes - back to the map.

    Thank you - I am reasonably pleased with the way the cliffs are going

    I think my background as a painter gives me a totally different approach to mapping. I don't so much 'draw' them, as 'paint' them. I have tried to do it the proper way, with black line work, shading, and then colour last of all, but it seems that I work better if I do all of that in one move - just like a painting done with extremely fine brushes and a limited palette.

    It creates a certain style that will always be different - always a bit odd - always something 'other' than mainstream, but I guess that's just the way I am.

    I don't think there's a "proper way". There are only different methods with different outcomes. I was just curious and I surely like the result!
    Plus, I'm pretty sure you're not the only one to have this painterly approach, even if you have your own special mousy touch .

    Thank you!

    You've made me feel a lot better about my style

    That is a nice style you have here.
    The rock surface look like the real thing.

    Yeah, that really is a gorgeous looking style of cliff.
    The top center is wonderful.
    That shadowed overhang is really well done.
