using actual main highways would be a very interesting idea

and don't even bother working on army circles ... because those aren't even army circles

Aaaarizona, where the wind goes whipping down the... oops.

What? Where's the Grand Canyon!

On a more serious note, make sure Cochise County is a negative one, darn place is one giant speed trap.

Grumble, grumble...

Okay, maybe that wasn't serious, still, I think you can make something interesting out of this, but instead of simply the shape, you should add more of the flavor of the state...

stuff

Well I am never going to say anything bad about getting edu-ma-cated, but practice is a good thing too.

If you want to keep working on it in the meantime, I'll try and help you out with comments and stuff. Art wise, I'm quite a b it behind the curve however.

If you feel like returning the favor, I would love feedback on MY first map idea...

Remember, this is one place where the old adage about saying something nice doesn't apply, be honest! It's the only way I can work towards making a worthwhile map...

Either way, good luck to you, and steer clear of Cochise County!

:lol:
