Hello everyone! Today I'm presenting a map I've been working on for a solid month I'd say - an 8k by 8k map for the RPG server "Asperia". It's also my first big commissioned project!

As you can see, it's a huge map with great variation in terms of biomes and terrain. I'm quickly going to go over the different processes I went through making this map:

1. Making the mountains in World Machine.
   
2. Importing the world into WorldPainter and painting the rest of the terrain.
   
3. Materials; adding stone to the mountains, sand in the desert etc.
   
4. Adding caves and tunnels.
   
5. Painting the biomes.
   
6. Adding different mixes of grass and flowers to the different areas of the map.
   
7. Trees; each part / biome of the map has its own unique tree mix.
   

These are all the different terrain types / biomes that you'll find on this map:
Ocean, frozen ocean, rivers, frozen river, forests, flatland, mountains, snowy mountains, desert mountains, Ithilien-like terrain and trees, Lothlorien-like terrain and trees, desert, jungle, oasis, swamp, snowy hills, pine forest and finally a special rock island far in the west

No download available since it was made for a server! If you'd like to have a look at the map in game, simply join asperia.fluctis.com:26473.
