So a little bit of photoshopping later I've got this as a result to corner up most of my Imagi-Nations. Making this took a surprisingly short amount of time, but it is a very rough version. I just added a lot of layers and did funny stuff with them, nothing special.
In other news, I'd like to build some pre-dreadnoughts of balsa wood, for which I gladly accept every advice, either pointing me to sources or what to look out for when building them etc. It's just the same as with the sailing ships, I'm too much broke to buy real models while a strip of balsa wood costs less than two bucks (what with the USD conversion rate skyrocketing even more)...
I'll cover the plans in another post and will probably make a WIP sequence the way I did with the gunboat.

I don't know whether you have seen these...

Thank you for the links - very interesting, and handsome, models. Mine will be a bit larger but the concept is similar.
DeleteFabulous map, but I'm no help on the pre-dreadnaughts - sorry.
ReplyDeleteThank you, it's more of a case of me being lazy and not researching stuff, but it reminds me that I actually had a book on modern warships...
DeleteBeautiful map, sir.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteImpressive work, Andras! It's always a pleasure seeing your creativity.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for a good fantasy map and that's a good one, Andras.
