July Entry: The Seven Dials

[ravells]

Thanks. I'm using serif Drawplus, which sadly doesn't have a cut out filter (I don't know what a cut out filter is!). I tried an inner glow, but it just didn't look right. I've resized the mountain fill in the north it to get rid of the pixellations and brought down the town labels from black to a dark grey. It could probably use a frame of some sort too. I've pasted a copy of the 'land fill' jpeg I used in the resources section. Problem with using it is that you have no control over where the vegetation is, but I guess you could use a clone brush to cure that.

Ravs, that is such a great map--and a quick job? Sheesh! The nerve of this guy!

One suggestion: I am not fond of the left-hand borders, which fade to complete white; I would give them some sort of monor texture (verrrry faint) to give them depth.

Nice work!

Thanks Don! I'm a lazy, impatient mapper so the more short cuts I can find the better!
