Feb / Mar '18 Light Challenge: Castleton Island

[Daistallia]

Looking good.

[Tonquani]

This is looking really good!

One minor point, there is a depth sounding at the 0 (zero) end of the meter scale and the result is a strange glyph.

Thanks bkh1914, I'll get that sorted out for the next WIP. 😋

This is so cool. I had guessed the scale to be a bit larger...maybe 5 statute miles covering what the map calls 1 mile. I like the town of Blink.

[elboe]

I really like the composition; including placement, coloring, labels, etc. Very nice looking map.

[Bogie]

Very authentic looking map!

Thanks everyone, I'm not really happy with loads of it, but I must be doing something right...

Tide Diagrams added in the bottom left corner - not sure if I'll keep these as they probably require about 4-5 hours of work to get them looking good.
Also, spent another couple of hours tonight doing soundings... getting tired of these - I need a way to automate them...

So, we've added a couple of navigation aids (hopefully a few more to come), the tidal diagram in the corner is coming on nicely, and the soundings are making progress (albeit slowly).

Still to do:
Finish the above
More detail on coastal settlements
A lot more labelling (I'm starting to struggle to find more names that seem to fit, but we will see how this gets on). I've taken to carrying a piece of paper and a pencil around with me and scribbling names down as they pop into my head; I would have no chance of remembering any of them when I am back at the computer

[bkh1914]

I'm looking forward to seeing what new navigational aids you put in.
(I have a few in mind, but I bet you've already thought of them.)

And more soundings. Yah, they're boring and tedious, but the map will look incomplete until they are completed.

Thanks bkh1914, yes, more soundings are on the list...

Just out of interest, would you say that the density of soundings in the North West corner is sufficient???

[Daistallia]

Very well done. Yes, more soundings, especially in the shallows, but I'd vote for this one as is right now, hands down.
