Oct / Nov '17 OUT OF Lite Challenge: Banned Island

[- JO -]

Hello !

I can’t join the challenge but I wanted to map one of those shapes. I had an idea that would allow me to draw a map without my usuals tools (as my computer is still in repair)... no, PS, no GIMP, just Procreate on an IPad Pro...

So, Bogie kindly allowed me to make this thread, so I can enjoy critics and comments, but of course, this map won’t be in the voting panel, on the 15th of November ...

So : no vote, and therefore, no shame

I wanted to make a marine Chart of this island, in the style of the bookmarks I’ve done (so : no shadows, which I find difficult to manage on Procreate)... and here’s my first WIP :

Looks like you're off to a good start! Looking forward to watching the progress.

Thanks IG.....

Here’s a quick update to give an idea of the display

[industrygothica]

I like it. I'm really curious to see where you're going with it.

[Mouse]

Oh hey! Look at this

Jo is definitely getting those classic border designs off to a T!

I'm looking forward to this

[Bogie]

Welcome the challenge Jo, looking good.

Glad to see someone else using procreate and ipad pro!
nice map and great border Jo!

[Kier]

Very Nice. Like the chart feel to it.

[ScottDA]

That border is fantastic, as is the color scheme. Gives it an old nautical map feel!

I don’t really know, but I will tell you when I’ll be there ...

Thanks Mouse, but my English is too limited to really catch the sense of your words...

Welcome the challenge Jo, looking good.

Thanks Bogie, and thanks again to let me in

Glad to see someone else using procreate and ipad pro!
nice map and great border Jo!

Thanks... it’s a great tool, but not for all use, I think... I have to choose the type of map I can do, some won’t work... and there’s no text edit for the labels... but right now, it’s my only mean to map...

Very Nice. Like the chart feel to it.

Thanks Kier... I’ll try to keep this spirit

That border is fantastic, as is the color scheme. Gives it an old nautical map feel!

Thanks ! That’s my goal ! I hope to succeed ! Let me know if I don’t

And now a quick update... I had to redo the whole frame because of a scale issue... 1 degree is approximately 75 KM at this latitude, so, if the island is 240 km wide, my scale has to match... and now, the relief...
I still don’t know how I will put the labels, but maybe my computer will be back (spitting, crossing fingers, touching wood and casting all sorts of spells...)
