First Map

Big BenBig Ben
in Show and Tell
This is my first map on cc3. I have had the program for a while and been intimitated by the learning curve
but have dived in with this map.
Now i am working on a city map another steep learning curve but worth it

    Not bad for a first map.
    I feel your symbols might be a bit to small though. Many are difficult to see properly when I look at the full map.

    Really nice map!
    I was playing around with some effects on it. I couldn't tell if you had added any or not. (My own unfamiliarity with cc3). I did add 2 effects to the Contours[Land] sheet. a blur of 5, and a transparency of 50%. That softens the contours a bit. I like it, but YMMV.

    For the city maps, Gandwarf has an excellent tutorial in case you haven't heard. Was worth my time to go through it.

    This is nice! The rivers are shaped very nicely, although they feel just a little bit out of place in the mountain ranges. Perhaps you could soften them with some sort of glow effect, maybe even a green glow to represent increased growth there? Unless, of course, this is intended -- then ignore this! :-) Keep it up!

    I did a Valley of Obelisks map just a few weeks ago: AWizardInDallas: Cartography. I'd feel somewhat remiss not to share it again. :)
