WIP Ailar World Map
Hi all -
I've been putting together a world map for a long-running RPG campaign of mine. The world is approximately 22,000 miles in circumference. The people of the world are recovering from near-destruction, during which most of the continents were significantly altered. The characters found an old map, which gives them a loose idea of where the landmasses are - hence the dim outlines of regions they haven't visited yet. The areas in full detail are ones that they have been to and have recent maps for.
I'm still messing with the terrain color a bit, and would love any advice or feedback anyone has on that. Also, I'm not sure what I want to do about labeling the continents and what symbol set I'll use for cities (labels and major cities being the only things I plan to add, other than a title and scale bar).
Let me know if you have any thoughts!

Long Time Mapper, First Time Poster
Hi all! I'm a long-time CC3/DD3/etc. user. I got started back around... 2008 or so? I've used this software for many RPG campaigns and have made many battlemaps, settlements, and regional maps. I realized recently that one thing I've never done is to make a full world map, though! Fortunately, one of my campaigns is at a point where that's necessary, so it gives me good reason to work on it. I figured it was also a good time to try to take my mapping up a notch, so I decided to introduce myself here on the forum.
Looking forward to exchanging ideas with you all!
