    Thanks! Yes, they are intentionally very similar to the Lone Wolf city icons; I tried to draw them as close to those as possible.

    Btw: Are those mountains hand draw?
    The waves are made with a brush, yes. It's from Kellerica; I'm sure if you ask really nice she'd share it with you.
    yes, mountains are hand drawn by me and converted to brushes. Probably won't share those though, since I do use them quite a bit for personal stuff and the odd commission now and then.

    Sure, if I can still find it... xD I've updated mine quite a while ago.
    I do have a feeling she might have been talking about the pattern inside the coastlines, the cross-hatch or whatever, rather than the wavelines though? Not certain. Which one did you mean, Amanda?

    That aside, D, the map looks stunning! Has to be one of my faves from yours in a while. The colors are just glorious!

    Oh, if it's the crosshatch pattern, here you go, I think this is the one. (This might have been created by someone here at the Guild, but I honestly don't remember.)

    Another fine Diamond piece here.

    Hehe, I almost forgot about it because you seemed to have finished it so long ago. I need to figure out a faster way to do mine. I prob have around 80-100 hours in at this point. (I don't count time very well when I'm listening to podcasts and being entertained while I draw or paint.)

    This is very nice and quite pro. I do like the little city markers and the use of textures you went with. It's def more dark and grungy than you usually have. I like your broken border too.

    It's actually not done yet. I still need to add the finishing touches to the forests, figure out what (if anything) to do icon-wise for wastes, swamps. Then, if there's still time, I want to experiment with some lighting effects to show the perpetual twilight, and maybe put in some coats-of-arms for the cities too. Heck, I've got almost 9 days. Plenty of time.

    Those mountains are very attractive! Nice work on the forests and icons as well, and the font really suits the piece.

    Cheers,
