The Lands south of Anaskur

[J.Edward]

Sorry for the late responses.
I'm beginning to feel the limits of my ability to keep up with so many platforms to post to while being super busy with work.

A very nice composition. I like the simplistic colour palette and the verticality (although I'd be keen to see a horizontally laid out map at some point).

I imagine the Gulf of Thura might have been an early place for civilization to start, in which case Koris or Athura may have been the largest/oldest/capital-est.

I am planning to do a wider format one soon.
It's just coincidence that I keep dropping these tall maps.

The feel of perspective is amazing ! Great work, as always !

Thanks Joel

I'm astonished. The mountains are beautiful, well detailed, but I guess I'm even more fond of the reliefs on the shores. It may seem trivial, but I feel I'm able to imagine the topography even where you didn't draw any mountain.
A great piece of art congratulations

Thanks Veldrin
I like those little bits just as much as the big bits.

You really have a particular talent, John. I mean, this is elegant, detailed but not crowded, interesting from afar as when zoomed, well thought and labelled...
Harune sounds like a good place to begin an adventure if you ask me .

I am getting better at this map thing. ;P
You could get to a lot of places from Harune.

Wonderful again and I can't wait to hear about software. I'm not having any issue with it lately other than just not buying out any time to paint. I have recently added a couple packages to my repertoire but I haven't even spent time with them yet.

I am getting a bit backlogged due to over-extending myself.
Hopefully I'll get to the software soon.

As always, splendid map. With your maps, I'm always transported into a different world just by looking at them...they ooze flavor and vibrate with atmosphere.
And I always wonder: what lies beyond the map that he depicts on the finite paper? Not many cartographers are able to do that. And I appreciate you sharing all these places with us, J! I enjoy every journey you gift me

(and I wish you'd do more world-maps instead of always cutting them off on different sides....too much speculating and wondering ... ^^ )

Thanks Elathen
Hehe, yeah, the border is part of the feel, making one ask "where does that go?". Showing hints of what is beyond the border.

I have world maps in development, but they involve so much more story related stuff so i can't always push them to the front.
Also, time. I have so many orphan maps that need doing. shudders. Too much stuff.
