Zen's Europe map

Zen, do you have any tips or pointers on map creation? Some part of me is interested in doing a South America vs. Western Europe map to recreate the real-life Mictlan/Marignon struggles among others.

Well Miguel. My only pointers are probably going to be with anything that you start and know nothing about (like me and Gimp or me and Photoshop) is to be prepared for it to be exceedinly harder than you imagined . Depending on how you want to do it, what programs you have availiable (I have found CC2's Fractal Utility makes good overland maps) and how you want to do it, I'd do your research first then if you have talent and skill (which I have none of) drawing it with a few of the map aids that are out there (Kristoffers' Mapstuff) and mashing it together until it looks good. There are alot more people out there who could tell you better than me, I'm just a middle man

If you liked that map then you may enjoy a redone Version of it called "Way too many provinces and a Scenario" that I redid the province lines and am in the process of having them all named properly then will tag them and make the scenario with it. It will also contain a new British map for those who want more brittan.
