    I think you must be a glutton for self-punishment with all of that stippling. Seriously though, I think this is coming along splendidly so far. The inverted version (white on black) looks great. Maybe keep it that way for the whole galaxy version and use the black on white for zoomed views of particular features? Suppose that really depends on how much color you are ultimately going to add.

    Have to keep an eye on this one. Got my own itty bitty part of a galaxy map I've been plugging at (indecisively I might add) for a while now. Maybe I'll have something worth posting soon.

    One's worth is not measured by stature, alone. By heart and honor is One's true value weighed.

    Yup, that's exactly my plan! My early sketch test has now gone to the previous page: https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...d.php?p=425653

    I'll look forward to seeing your galaxy, too.

    I had some sketch lines for a cathedral-like border, but now that I rough it in, I'm starting to think it's too heavy. What do you all think?

    Although I call this setting The Cathedral Galaxy, that's because the innermost region is called The Cathedral and I think that sounds poetic. But it's not really what the peoples here would call it.
