I'd gotten used to gel pens and then whoever gets the office supplies bought different kind of pens, and... I'm not a fan (see this post).

So I bought new pens... but I decided to buy two different point sizes (0.5mm and 0.7mm). I think it shows on this map. I like it.

You see all those professional cartographers and illustrators using pens with 10 different point sizes... now I know why.

I’m still unsatisfied with the “mass of trees”. Seems like individual trees is the way to go. At least for my own drawing skills.

For those curious about what I was actually trying to accomplish, at the beginning of this video Nate shows a few styles:

If you pause at 2:32… I wanted mostly #2, but mixed with #5

These forests do look better, but it's very tedious to draw individual triangles.

Also, I probably should have shaded each one of them.

Still a lot of room for improvement.
