    The mapwork is very nice. The hard edges on the labeling and border don't look quite right to me against the artwork for the town. It looks like a computer-annotated old map; the white glows on the text done for legibility just scream "image editor". If you did a quick hand-drawn text insert in a non-western language (maybe Chinese saying "chicken soup with dumplings" or some such) then it would make it clear that the annotations were after the fact. If the intent is not to look post-annotated, you might be able to use a small noise-based displacement map on the full-resolution version to roughen up the edges of the text and borders just a little bit.

    It's got a good flavor, nice and evocative of the setting. I don't suppose there'd be an English language version of that game? The map makes me interested.

    Awesome map again, Olivier! Tu as vraiment l'oeil pour adopter le bon angle et la vue qui rend justice à ton dessin!

    A beautiful piece. As others said the nods to historical maps and oriental art is just wonderful.

    Olivier, je regrette vraiment de ne pas être fan des JDR asiatisants, ça me prive du privilège d'admirer tes cartes en grand format. Je sais que tu bosses pour Agate, j'espère de tout cœur que tu participes à Dragons

    Une tuerie!
    magnifique carte. J'adore ce rendu que tu donnes à tes cartes.
    je rejoins Thom sur le fait que ne jouant pas à ces jeux, je ne peux admirer tes cartes en grand format papier.

    @ Thomas : Oui je bosse sur Dragons, j'ai dernière bouclé la carte de la cité qui servira de setting de départ au jeu : La Cité Franche gros gros taf en 3D iso encré à la main puis mise en couleur
