Hey there, friends and watchers. I've decided to create a PF tutorial guiding you through the creation of a simple map to give you some basic insights into the do's and don't's as I've learned them. Enjoy!

WOW! That is one amazingly detailed, excellent tutorial! Great advice about labeling your layers! (I've been guilty of not doing so, and suffered for it!) I do have one suggestion, and that would be to pick a somewhat heavier font. Depending on the monitor/computer, there are places where it's a bit hard to read.

Anyway, congrats on the DD!

Thanks, I thought it'd be the right thing to share some of the knowledge the Guild and DA have helped me gain these past years.

Oooo! This will prove very useful if I decide to draw a elaborate map for my Netheron series! I'm so inexperienced with drawing realistic and detailed maps, though I am not foreign to digital art and photoshop, so this will be a huge help! Thanks for sharing <3

Right now it's just maps. Eventually I try to branch out into drawing other stuff, too, but I'm not good enough for that yet.
