I did not actually have to draw any lines (thankfully). I'd love to crank out more maps for Mystara and Birthright, but I'm trying to finish up the first book. Fingers crossed.

Fingers crossed.

I had a similar sort of sharing thing going on with my brother, but unfortunately he never got into RPGs as much as I did. Oh and commiserations on the Gobots thing.

I'd be interested to hear how you went about making it. It really does look very similar in style to the modern RPG maps I've seen. I'm especially interested in the mountains. Doing mountains like that in Illustrator (for example from the B10 maps) drives me insane because there are so many lines to draw for each individual mountain, but it looks like you've got a good technique going there.
