Working on a map for a Biodiversity firm where different areas of the province (foothills, grasslands, etc) could be highlighted and focused on. Still lots of detailing to go. :|
Looking great!
The zoomed area makes me think there's going to be a LOT of detail in the other highlighted areas, improving even more the overall look.
It's also very strategy game style, another reason why I like it :D
Good job!!
@Cortny - thanks! It's based on actual terrain, though obviously simplified quite a bit and removing cities and human impact. I used two maps for reference - one that shows rivers and the like, and another that breaks down the province into the natural regions. http://tinyurl.com/ljcxsb and http://tinyurl.com/3jpg6qz Currently the map is focusing on the parkland region...
Thank you for sharing, it's always cool to see the source material used for things such as this. Speaks a lot for your skills when seeing those two reference pieces hahaha.
@Conor - ha ha, thanks! I guess I meant I have to do more features and stuff. I've barely touched the Rocky mountain ridge that is going along the bottom. ;)

This is coming along awesome, is this an actual terrain view from a specific location or just generic?
