Description
Here's a crop of something I've been working on some lately.This is Nahadua from the larger Guildworld we've been mapping over at Cartographers Guild.
The wip thread for this map is over here - www.cartographersguild.com/sho…
I've got loads left to do on it but it's looking pretty good already.
I'm really diggin this new style for terrain, an extension of what I was doing with Qaliste.
Looks so good in low saturation. More to come on this one.
Oh, and just started a new website - www.imaginebetterworlds.com/
so go check that out if you like.
Other bits....

Thanks Stefano
You can see the process in the wip thread [link is up in the description].
The finished map thread is here - www.cartographersguild.com/sho…
It really is a long process. There are several layers of shading and highlights and such.
I used some low opacity brushes to build up the look.

Well those are definetly among the best handmade realistic mountains I have seen , comparable to the ones I saw made by Tom Patterson on shaded relief .

The outlines of this and the Middle Earth map look not-even-that-much-alike. I noticed that too but the similarity is so vast that it is almost not there
It probably just happens if you stared at that map for hours and days looking at the once referenced places and Frodo's way, remembering every event that took place along his path ^^

Patience and self punishment
I love the work, sometimes I just wish I'd choose smaller things to work on.
