Map project

Wanted to let Eugene take a look at this. Used the editor for the game Civ III and the some photoshop. Actually pretty easy and would work well for leagues like Ruthlandia.

Here is the one I started:

Looks kida bad here but I have a larger file that looks much better.

Very well done, chredwdew.

That's the best map I have seen on this forum.
I like the way you include topographical information complete with mountains, rivers, lakes...even an island.

I like the island and lakes...I forgot to put them in my country.

You have good taste in city names, too.

I hope you keep us updated on your progress.

Post it when you decide on cities, nicknames, stadium names, logos and uniforms. Hopefully you will include some history and culture, too.

I look forward to following your league.

Not bad, even though it's kinda hard to make out.

Here is the latest version. I added forests (regular and pine) Also the game Civilization has recources that can be placed on the map. I tried adding oil, cattle, gold, ect. But it showes up so small I don't think it is worth it.

Your project is looking good. Maybe one day I can benefit from your knowledge and experience. Good work.

A map of my fictional leagues is on my list of future things to do...also may try to learn to do logos and have a website created.
