    Default Commission - CASTLE ALEXANDER

    This commission is based on the island of Rügen on Germany's northern coast, in the medieval era, with a dragon's castle on the cliffs of The Königsstuhl and a few cities in the surrounding environs. I always enjoy historical/real world maps because I get to learn so much about these areas while drawing them. Now I'd love to see the real place one day!

    Thank you! There is a faint road on the eastern island where the bridge is, but the idea was that because of the dragon occupying the castle and terrorizing the countryside , the others have been abandoned and overgrown

    I quite like this. Really like the line work, especially along the coast.

    Also, this castle is clearly the best-named castle. Everyone knows.

    LOL,"SWOLE"....I guess that's the word but it always makes me think of what elephantiasis of the nuts would be.

    Then again, I'm on the downhill side so what do I know.

    Anyway, tis indeed another very nice map LizardInk.

    I love the way you draw this one : A lot of details, nature, trees, and such, with just some marking elements (castle, village) : that makes this map very special ! I like it very much !
