    Map December 2022 Challenge: Town of Veriscay

    Hey!

    Been looking for a reason to map a canyon. So, I'll hop in to start things off.

    I started today laying the linework foundation.

    The idea behind this one, I've been working on a grand overland map for one of my web novels and it has a forest in it with canyon gorges splitting it. So, for THIS map, I'm zooming way in to a part where the roots of the giant trees are piercing the side of that canyon. A town was settled there.

    Veriscay.

    Today, I was playing around with the color scheme alongside the what is inside the canyon.

    Hehe, that's good. I like a bit of mystery in a map.
    Tx, I was doing an overland map and added the touch and it finally inspired this whole concept.

    Helloooooa

    I hope everybody is doing well.

    For this iteration, I started adding more buildings. It is a bit of a tricky perspective to draw buildings on, but once I got the hang of it, it started coming together nicely. I am, however, still searching for a proper color scheme for the buildings.

    Also added some vines to better start the place, this is going to be more 'junglish' in the end.

    Anyway, enjoy the day.

    I love that baby tree on the left between the buildings, with his elbow propped up on one.

    Thanks. Though, I was confused with what on earth fenditure means. In the end, I take it you mean the fissure?

    Helloooe!

    So, I started with giving the place a jungle make over, at least the start of it. Still a lot of small details to add.
