    The pleasure is mine!

    I took some better photos, i didn't like the blurred ones of the last one. I gotta do more maps instead, i know, but that took very little time.

    Any suggestion is welcome!
    Colouring and detailing will follow the style of the tiles in the original post!

    Cheers

    Oh, these look absolutely beautiful already! I love the way you've created a very 3D relief look. Awesome stuff!

    Thank you! I should move to the digital colouring in the weekend.
    I plan to add various "travel notes", some serious ones and some easter eggs hidden around.

    Some ideas so far:

    Volcano:
    A village with a “visited the day X, everyone is now missing”
    An area “lava flow covered mr Banks”
    Mr White and Mr Coombs fell in the lava. They are fine now.

    Archipelago:
    This island wasn’t there last time

    Open Sea:
    Several notes day after day.
    Mr Tobbs saw a vessel. Nothing found.
    Mr Tobbs noticed a fire. No fire found.
    Mr Tobbs noticed a blue whale. The whale is now hidden
    Mr Tobbs killed by the crew after noticing a sparkle of gold.

    This is absolutely gorgeous work, Not-so Lazy One!

    It looks straight out of Treasure Isle.

    Thank you! That's about the time frame the game is set in, so that's a success!

    Meanwhile, i've managed to add the details to the new five tiles for the game:
    Colours are done with digital watercolors (a GrutBrushes which i highly recommend), and several notes and dates are added throughout the maps, for aesthetic purpose only.

    Clearly, I'm not venturing in this thread enough!
    This is brilliant and inspiring, Jack!

    Thanks Ilanthar!

    A couple fresh maps done. No digital colouring so far - waiting for the end of the client's campaign to secure the funds first.

    Meanwhile, here they are!
