Lunaria
This looks nice... wait, haven't I seen this somewhere before?

NewJourneysFire
Ganon's Darkness may be gone. But the stained purple water remains as a reminder of the hold he once had over Hyrule! In Hyrule Castle, his powerful presence still remains!

ywkls
It is your destiny to explore North Labrynna.

Sheik
"Been there, done that, messed around."
 
It makes me really happy to see all your high-quality maps! I hope the feeling of satisfaction is mutual.

Heh. 69

I liked NJF and ywlks' maps. It probably has a lot to do with the tilesets.

I voted for Sheik. His map has a nice structure, palette and is overall pleasing to look at. It looks professional, sending aLttP and ALBW vibes all around. I would change the bushes on the autumn coloured sections of the map to something more fitting though. They stick out in a bad way.

All good maps. I voted for NJF's.

 

ywkls: Your map looks good but the image is a bit small, making it harder to look at. Could you maybe take a larger screenshot?

Not voting since I'm in this one... so here's my thoughts on the others.

 

Lunaria- I'm guessing that this is for one of the Legend of Lana quests... a lot of variety in the looks of the environment going on here. It also kind of reminds me of the original Legend of Zelda.

 

NewJourneysFire- Very, very nice in all respects. If I was going to vote for someone else, my vote would go here.

 

Sheik- I've been watching the development of this map for a while and I like what I see. Keep up the good work!

 

ywkls: Your map looks good but the image is a bit small, making it harder to look at. Could you maybe take a larger screenshot?

 

That's probably because of the size I posted it in. I could probably create it using one of the other size settings on the mapmaker, but I'm not sure about how to replace the current screenshot with the new one or even if I can. If I could, would I just need to resubmit it or send the link as a PM to whoever is in charge of this contest? (I'm guessing that's nicklegends.)

 

Anyways, thanks for your suggestion!

Good contest number. I like.

 

Lunaria - Good ol' Legend of Lana :P I love how this map barely resembles Z1, but at the same time it's very new and awesome to look at. I love the many different colours around the overworld, it makes the overworld look varied and unique.

 

NJF - This is really awesome. I love the usage of DoR in this shot, everything looks so good. I also noticed that the whole map is structured like a maze with loads of paths going everywhere. That's pretty cool :P I was also going to make a comment about the purple water and how it doesn't really suit the rest of the image, but I then read the caption so it all makes sense. I still think the purple water looks a bit weird compared to the rest of the screen though :P

 

ywkls - Kinda wish the map was bigger (but it seems you're going to address that one post above, and yes, the person who runs this is nicklegends). From what I can make out though, there's a lot of OoA resemblance going on here and I can easily recognise most areas, so good job on that.

 

Sheik - That ALTTP tileset is awesome. So far, this map is coming along really well. I see loads of ALTTP influences here and I love how everything looks with each other. I have no criticisms with this one, I love this map to death.

 

My vote goes to Sheik, but NJF came in very close second.

You can resubmit your map via PM or MotM Dropbox so long as the new image shows the same map as the old one. Just be aware that I won't modify any votes that have already been cast.

I used the dropbox, and the slightly larger size. Once it is accepted, please change the link at the beginning. It might also be nice if people knew it had changed, so they could look at the new one and possibly change their votes.

I'm going Lunaria. This map jumps out at me. The colors and layout look superb.

I've updated your map. People may need to do a hard refresh on the image (Ctrl+F5) to see the new version.
