Draco.exe Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hey all!i've been working on this map for a custom D&D "open world adventure" with my brothers. Made entirely in photoshop (i used some brushes for the terrain like mountains, forests, etc. and some textures. All the credits are in the deviantart link)(Extracted from the Deviantart Link)In this region you can find 5 "factions" (not including creatures/pirates/bandits/mercenaries/evil creatures, etc): The Morden Empire: Medieval European like empire. The Janlyn Empire: Medieval Asian like empire. Elven Houses: There's a Royal House, but each house follows his own leader. The structure is like the Game of Thrones "houses organisation". Dwarven Clans: Each Clan follow his own rules and make alliances with other clans when is needed. The "Stone Lords" is the Clan choosen by all the other clans to lead the Dwarfs as one big nation. Free Cities and Towns: Some cities which follow his own laws and rules. There're a few Points of interest, like the Abyss Rift (a giant crack in the mountains, which have a passage to the underworld/abyss, or something like that), a Jungle Temple (Qakoph), a sunken city, etc. I'm still looking to add more PoI or special locations/events to the map.If you want to see the full resolution image go here :) [http://eragon2589.deviantart.com/art/Oreen-Map-493352306](http://eragon2589.deviantart.com/art/Oreen-Map-493352306)Comments? i'm looking forward to any constructive comment for improving my photoshop skills :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco.exe Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 > So, are you adding maps to what you are willing to do? :D this looks great!I just created that map for my Dungeons and Dragons play with my brothers for having a better background history/context :)btw i allways thought it would be great to have a "global map" system with waypoints in Eclipse…maybe if someday i learn to code i would try to do that feature :DAnd thanks!

Strafe Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I love it! Only thing I would say is that the grass plains are too barren? I dont know what to suggest but just some few details like small clumps of trees? Hills? Small ruins and such except for that looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small ruins and such except for that looks great!Thanks! i was considering to add more random trees, hills, rocks to the plain areas, also i'm going to see if i can add some contour lines or something like that (for terrain elevations) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco.exe Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Updates!after thinking a lot and working in the campaign, i started to expand the map! just because i want the complete continent :Pso here's the base for the whole continent. I need to work on all the borders, create the lakes and rivers, and then…start to fill with mountains, forests, cities, etc.The red square is the already finished map.Also i'll start creating my own brushes (mountains/trees/etc)NOTE: big image!
