July Entry: The Fairy Necklaces Map

[Duvik]

I'm gonna agree with RP on what is a very nice looking map. Those simple changes you made really brought it out from what it was in the original image posted.

The compass certainly could use a bit of work though. I'd go with thinner lines and little to no large black oval.

Think of a stylized number 7, then keep that one,copy it, invert the copy horizontally, and then vertically...

that'd give ye a nice slim looking up and down arrow ((now, i don't mean for ye to actually use the number 7 to do this, use a stylized arrow and add a little length to the lines but... well... hopefully ye follow what i'm getting at... you've gone with a minimalist design and should let the min flow baby ))

hey all.

This is pretty much it for the final entry in July. In between rehearsals and performances for a production i'm in, work, and family stuff, girlfriend, etc. you know life... well, this is all i can do to the map so let's consider this one done.

thanks for all the suggestions folks. i always enjoy putting my stuff up here because you guys are so good about constructive critism and giving serious help to those who need it. when one looks at one's own art, he doesn't see flaws that others would. that's why i like these forums. thanks again to all who gave me ideas. (the stylized 7 was a handy touch and one i would never have thought of. thanks Duvik!)

so i added a small picture of a fairy on top of it, if it still draws attention away, i'm sorry i tried to lighten it up a bit and make it less pronounced. i suppose i could lose the whole compass thing altogether if it looks out of place.

everything else, i'm pretty happy with.

thanks again!

I would call that done. I like the fairy compass. That is a nice touch.
