CLASSIC CITIES: Moscow [Quenched]

[cairnswk]

^^ koontz, refresh v24 above please.
Is that better?

[koontz1973]

Yes, for me much better. Do not forget to remove the black lines running down the sides of the gold clips though. Pechatniki and Gagarinskiy.

thank-you, let's see if that satisfies y2manypbr and isaiah40

Someone forgot.

no didn't forget, but was asleep, and i think it looks better like this...at least we can see the whole region border

Well, tbh this map is challenging for me to read but not impossible. The colorblindness thing certainly does slow down my comprehension of the map but it appears that the colors are just contrasting enough so that I can make them out if I focus and shift my eyes back and forth enough from one to the other. It's a very pretty map though and I think that in order for you to make it readable enough for me to use it easily you would lose a lot of this prettiness.
For the record though I'll not the spots that look very close at a glance, enough for me to have to slow down and focus back and forth:

Severo-Zapadny/Vostochny
Yuzhny/Yugo-Vostochny

As I said though, I can make them out if I try, it just takes a little more effort. I'll use waterloo again as a reference as this map is much easier to read than that one. Tbh, I could work with this. I do think it's a beautiful map and it definitely captures that Old Russian feel. .

Those I have no idea what goes with what but I assumed they were not part of the bonuses. If they are, I may have a problem with this map after all as far as colorblindness is concerned.

OK, thanks FT.
If i'll see what i can do with the colours of those regions you mentioned...i don't think it will lose it's charm

[Funkyterrance]

Edited my last post, the inner bonus is obvious now that I looked at the legend.

[y2manypbr]

Darker borders help see the bonus! Thanks

[cairnswk]

Thanks y2manypbr....this is a swapped colur version i dod to help FT.
Does this work better for you also.

[RedBaron0]

Got a version with army numbers on it?

[cairnswk]

[Oneyed]

the black border instead yellow is more clear. maybe a less opacity (also for border around river) could helps. the impassable gold circle has one (two?) parts another as the rest ones...

nice map.

Good

consider done

the impassable gold circle has one (two?) parts another as the rest ones...

the impassable gold circles is representational and meant to show that the section is impassable...of course on the map there are 5 sections. It is fine.

nice map.

thank-you

sorry but part of golden circle in Presnensoe looks as old one which you had. it realy does not have golden metalic look as the rest ones.

Oneyed

and you'll have to take my word for it, that it is as new as the rest regardless of its looks

Small


Large


with 888s.

[isaiah40]

Can you place the 888's in the stars as well cairns? I think the the 888's will overlap a couple of the region names in a couple of places, especially on the small.

no, isaiah40, i cannot place the 888s in the stars, because the stars are not territories, and 888s should not be in the stars.
the 888s are on the small map. did you have too much xmas cheers this morning? or simply wake up on the wrong side of the bed?
or simply fail to read the legend about the stars?

Yep too much Christmas cheer already! That and misread it!

NPs. but i thought, that was not like you to go there!

[isaiah40]

The impassable ring is very pixelly, especially on the top portion of it. Also the bottom right inset doesn't look as good as the other 3 insets. I see a lot of black pixels on the building. Can you try and clean it up a bit??

NO, this is the way that is comes out of the CorelDraw functions.
I have masked the gold rings sections when doing the gold process so that it wouldn't pixelate too much, however it still occurs.
On the corner images, these are 4 different images that have differing elements, i have tried to apply the same watercolour process to them so they turned out much the same.
I see a lot of black in all images...and am happy with them.

[isaiah40]

Well cairns, the only two I have a problem with is the top and bottom ones, the others look good.
