Hello Guild,

Always experimenting with new techniques in GIMP and Wilbur, I am constantly at work to refine my procedure to render beautiful, atlas-like terrain--one map after the other. And I can't get no satisfaction.

I realize the learning curve gets a little more difficult with each map, and for that reason I was originally going to discard this one, entitled Orpheus. However, I'll let the viewers decide whether I should abandon this project or develop it further.

By the way, does anyone know of a cheap (or free) software program that allows gradient masking, which basically allows a person to burn/dodge the underlying black and white DEM to adjust the colours of the overlying gradient map?

Anyways, I won't bore you with any more rambling. Here's the map; I hope you like it.

Peter
