Cool. That looks really nice.

I like it! It looks really good. It's almost like a small community, really nicely done!

Looks even better than the version you uploaded over at the FB Group page. You changed the roads.

Beautiful map, Ken

Thanks,
I really fought with those roads but I like how they turned out.

Just great - love the use of HW farmlands to create individual farm plots. Consider that idea stolen.
The roads are terrific - what did you do to get them like this?

KenG

With that background the roads caused me all sorts of grief, but what I ended up with was an easy solution.
I drew the roads on their own sheet with a slight blend. Then I copied the roads to a new sheet under the road. I doubled the width of the road and changed the fill to the HW tree fill, and added a slight blend and edge fade.
Blend is just an awesome effect.

I love this little map. I'm with Quenten -- stealing this idea of using the HW farmlands larger to make farm plots. Brilliant!

Thanks Scott

Great mapping!
Is't possible to get the fcw. files to learn from you?

Love it. More than good enough to frame and hang on my wall.

This should be a counted crosstitch pattern. Lovely.

The HW style always evokes a sense of horror in me for some reason. This is a wonderfully intimate map, with good detail, and I can't help think there must be something sickening going on in Sycamore!

A bit of flavor text for you.

The little houses sitting next to the wood, you can barely hear the screms from back behind the trees.
