    And another small village + a bit of surroundings my The Dark Eye group should be passing by anytime soon.

    Don't know yet, what to do with the eastern part. Maybe I'll just leave some "empty" landscape. Still struggling with elevations, too.

    So far I just tried pencils (apart from digital). But I'm planing on giving fineliners a try, to clean things up.

    These are looking great, I really like your style. Showing elevations accurately in a top-down can be quite difficult, I've found that you just have to use shadows and really think it through to get them in the right places.
