Thread: Regni Mirati Nova Tabula Cum Proximus Regionibus

    Map Regni Mirati Nova Tabula Cum Proximus Regionibus

    I'm trying out something much smaller (it's A4) - which comes with a new set of challenges!
    I'm already disappointed that I can't properly remove the pencil lines I drew for the title lettering, but hell, I'm not restarting it for the fifth time.

    This is pretty impressive already ! I'm pretty sure you'll be able to clean it up once scanned. Looking this one closely

    This one looks stunning already ! I wouldn't be worry about the pencil lines : I think they add a lot of character to a hand-made map. While looking for ancient maps for inspiration, those lines are always something I look for : they make you feel closer to the original cartographer ^^

    I love the way you did the jagged coastlines. Are you drawing from imagination or do you have a worldmap you’re using as a guide? The projection lines look really good and believable.

    Thank you! Totally imagination, though I am a bit afraid that the coastlines are a bit too jagged, but hell, too late for that. And projection is equidistant conic, I kinda stole it from an old map of Scandinavia I have.

    Too jagged? I don’t think so. It gives the map it’s own feel and makes the shapes of the lands stand out.

    Thanks! Also, a small update! As always, it's taking me forever.
