Objective:
To design a map for the world of Archea in a style similar to that of olden maps.
I used Adobe Photoshop for the entire design. I starts from the "ground" and worked by way up by adding various layers of water to create the different depths of water. I then added the land. Afterwords I began to plot out where each kingdom would be. Once that was done I created the mountains using a created mountain brush and added depth to the mountains using the brush tool. I then created rivers and lakes. I finalized this design with a sepia colouring.
This is the version of the map without the sepia (or older styled) colouring. This is to show the variance with this design and how it can be displayed in different styles.
I used Adobe Photoshop for this design. For the majority of the work I used the brush tool, everything else was text
I used Adobe Illustrator for the compass rose
