Hi Folks, I'm new on here, and would like a bit of advice, please.
I've been asked to do a Theme Park map similar in style to the Alton Towers (here
) one, but not as large or detailed as that, and I'm not sure how it's been done. One of those jobs you can't turn down but not looking forward to do!
Now, I'm a bit of an old git and few years ago I would've got out the watercolours and inks and done it by hand, but they're after something slicker than that. I dabble in Illustrator and use Photoshop loads, but I've never done something on this scale before. At first I presumed it was Illy and maybe taken into Photoshop to render, but I really don't know where to start. Is it just a matter of picking up that pen tool and knuckling down to some hard graft, or is there something I'm missing? They particularly like the textures and effects on the water and grass etc.
Any tips and/or advice would be very welcome.
