That's why I would like to request some aid. It's a rather large project, but you don't have to build the map from scratch, either. My own version of it is 8150x6600 pixels. 1px = 1km. The map I want doesn't have to that large.



What's my hobby? Virtual micronationalism (geofiction). I participate in the development of a fictional empire, write stories, etc.


Request
- I want a fantasy map of my fictional nation, Jingdao. The nation is themed after Ancient China and Imperial Japan. While the style doesn't have to be 'Chinese', I would like the city icons to look somewhat oriental (if possible).

- The outlines of the map you can see below. Map 2 (see below) was a version I started making a while ago, but I would prefer one in a more 'fantasy' setting.
- The map is rather large. The artist will receive a certain freedom to fill it in.

- I would like a version of the map which I can edit. This can be in photoshop, but I would like to be able to bring in small changes afterwards.


Some trivia:
- The capital city, Daocheng, is protected by a huge wall, which encompasses the Zhijinlin and Imperial district (the green region). There are fortresses located at each gate.


If someone accepts and we can agree upon a price, I will send an edited map of Map 2, to show where the fortresses and main roads and railways should be located (the artist can decide about minor ones, riverways,...).
