    Looking forward to see it colored ! You’re right about the difficulty to read it in black and white, unless you zoom in, then it’s a beauty, with so many details !

    I love your display, the empty space in the middle with the compass catch the eye and invites us to visit the different parts. The ice up north covering the frame is a good move too !

    I understand you work with a Mac, is that right ?

    Thanks Joel I saw Wingshaw do something similar with a border and wanted to try it. I do work with a MacBook Pro indeed.

    Thanks Voolf but, client's choice. He wanted something futuristic and that's the one he chose between my propositions. I upped the kerning to get more legibility but you are right, it can be difficult to read sometimes. I might try something with the color version.

Looking forward to see the coloured and ornamented version of it!
    Thans Martin The shore waves were a lazy man's choice. the best way, given the scale would have been radial waves but I hate to use digitally generated ones and the aim was color so, I drew what took the less time even if it's not the best idea. In the color version, thos wave will disappear completely.
