    Maaaan, this is the kind of map I would like to have on my wall. The details! The craftmanship! It's gorgeous!

    Thanks a lot to you as well Rochnan, and glad that you like it!

    I started doing some of the water reflections on the river, mainly to have some progress to show, since another dozen of tree shadows is just boring to look at

    I‘m slowly but surely running out of ways to say thanks for all the nice words , so it’s just THANKS now

    And again, i have worked a bit on the map again, the majority of the trees has their its shadows now.

    This time, i‘ve got two questions as well:

    First of all, i still haven’t got an idea what to do with the space in between the town wall and the houses of the upper town - my first idea were vineyards, but that feels rather odd concerning the fact that there‘d be a lot of empty space inside the walls and a large suburb outside. So if you have any better idea i‘d be glad if you tell me what it is.

    Then there’s still the mountain range in the background left to be done, and i have literally no clue how to do that. Since i‘ll use watercolouring to do the shadows anyway, i thought about doing the mountains with a technique that relies mostly on that, but i don’t really know how. So, same thing about this question, if anyone got ideas and/or examples, please let me know

    Another update, the drawing part is done apart from the border and the subjects of the two questions of the last post (and some of the water reflections which i forgot )
