It definitely looks well-suited to big world maps, and even says that's what it's good for right on that page. I have had it for a while, but never did much with it. Looking at other map styles I have access to, I remembered this style here, from the April 2009 volume of the Annuals: So, say I want my whole world for this setting, in total, to be bigger than that. Based on the scale, this map is about 1300 by 1000 miles. It's a high-detail style, so if the map were much bigger than this, it would be impossible to see anything when zoomed to extents. ![]() it's pretty easy to see just from looking at that map, that this style could be stretched beyond its limits if used for areas significantly bigger than what is in this map. However, looking at an example of it (my go-to example for this style is always this excellent rendition of the 13th Age map, found on this ProFantasy blog post): The (beautiful) Mike Schley style that came bundled with CC3+ has long been what I figured I'd use for maps of specific regions within this world. ![]() I haven't decided on what EXACTLY the total size of the world will be yet, but something occurred to me. I'm plotting out details for maps that will go along with a fantasy novel project I'm working on. Ahoy mappers! So I'm FINALLY getting back to doing some mapping for an actual fantasy world, after literally years of using CC3/CC3+ for nothing other than modern national/city maps.
