Hi folks
I am doing a series of wilderness maps....
there will be 8 in a set (2 plain wilderness, 1 with a
trail/path & 1 with a road) 4 will be day versions &
4 night versions. Each map will be large scale (40x40)
I will post these at The Nook (so you can download a nice hi-res version)
I am open to requests and suggestions for any terrians
you want specifically made for your campaigns so feel
free to post any requests here.
To start the ball rolling, I am going to make a few maps
specific to my campaign....Greyhawk.
I am going to start with the environs around Greyhawk City (Furyondy)....
which relates to the State of Michigan.....
so I am going to do Lowland plains/Prairie and then move onto Bare & wooded hills/uplands......
....Hope I get some interest....and awaiting any requests

The biggest terrain maps that I have trouble with is heavy mountain regions where travel is very difficult. Gettting the shadows and depths correct to look good is always an issue.
That being said I would love to see a mountain pass map. That would be awesome!

I have become addicted to these forums, logging in every day to see all the new pretties, and am constantly blown away by many of the members map skills.
Well done.
Some day maybe I will open my DJ and see things of this quality on my screen... doubtful but maybe. Right now I am just happy when my walls line up heh.
Anyways.. great work and thanks for the art. It helps when you all assist those of us without the talent to still provide extraordinary maps for use in our games. Words failed me when I saw the snow covered pass.
