Spain - Draft 2 <VACATION 4-7-09>

[MrBenn]

While this map isn't yet a complete working draft, I think you're heading in a positive direction. I'm looking forward to seeing this develop

[Merker]

Yep, and now we're just waiting on the next draft.

[Merker]

I've come up with 10 colours, hopefully enough.

Also, I thought maybe add the motto in;

"Plus Ultra"
-
"Further Beyond"



EDIT: Sorry for double post!

Obviously on the map could be different, but actually i think that the two last colors don't fit very well with the others.

Try to tone down them only a bit (only the last two)

I can't wait to see your draft!

Mmmm....I made them darker. I'm not prepared to change them just yet, I'd like to see how they work in the map.

Well map first colors later, just give us a map

Just waiting on Danyael, he/she said he'd/she'd be done soon.

[Danyael]

i few problems with the colours i'll use them but at least 3-5 of them looks exactly them same to me once i'm done the next rough draft we'll see

[Merker]

You can modify them if you wish Danyael, though I'm not sure you'll be able to see the change if your colour change, depending on the severity of your colour blindness I guess.

alright its taking awhile....... To do this i have spent alot of time on it to make it look as close to spain as i can
Please note
things to do
crop
this will be the texture of the map
i will be adding the political borders soon
canary isl. will be inset will be place in bottom left corner and legend on lower right corner
title top right
I think routes will work best because i think its might be a shame to gray scale this one
but i'll try it out both ways

but i thought everyone can see so far

Nice! It's not what I was thinking but no matter. If you like, you could try this thing I was thinking of, basicly, make the shape of the territory (over the area) then, make the fill of the shape semi-transperent with the continental colour. Just an idea, but I'll post this up on the front page.

[Danyael]

yes i plan on doing it the way you want but i'll do a route version as well

[Merker]

Hmmmm... I'm not a fan of routes (unless on Islands), but I've got to better be open minded on these things . So I can't wait to see the later updates .


Also, I'm renovating the main front page so it may be a bit bare.

[thenobodies80]

Wow!

Nice graphic....

Few quick suggestions:

• The map is 1px too wide
• I assume that this is the large version of your map...the playable area is very compressed, cut some white border and make it larger. You'll nedd a small "playable" version.

I'm happy to see a so clear first post

I'll back when the borders/names come...

Good work...
