Paris, a french sequel.

Postby reverend_kyle on Wed Nov 14, 2007 3:08 am

Hey guys, what do you think of this.

What it is is a sequel to france, but of the capital paris. I tried to keep the style the same, but use different colors etc.

Liking the idea...

I saw the Belgium map the other day and thought a paris map would be a good idea - (The word arrrondisamont (sp?) was what tweaked my mind)...

It looks like a gallbladder.

You are going to have to do some series work to make it look like the city of love.

That's the kind of map I like. I don't like these maps that I don't understand. The only complication here is that it's quite a bit smaller. Paris is smaller than france.

So far I have, don't make it look like a gall bladder. I'm not sure what that's referring to, but any other suggestions.

Nothing about this says Paris to me

I've never been to Paris, but I do know that a famous city like this NEEDS to be represented quite well.

People need to look at it and say "That's Paris!!" (yes. with double exclamation points).

There's so much history there that needs to be represented.

Landmarks and Monuments are abundant.



If pairing up with Marvaddin for South America taught me anything. It's that someone from the region you are working on can bring you a great perspective.

There has to be someone from France or Paris that you can team up with, bounce ideas off, or at least just talk to about the map.

I guess I don't understand. I used the same style as I did on france. I figured france and paris would have the same style.
