City of Obsidian

… now with shanty neighborhoods surrounding outside the city walls

Took the hand-drawn map of Obsidian into PhotoShop and had some fun. (The original sketch of Obsidian is here.) Added the shanty neighborhoods outside of the city walls. Sat it on a black background and change the color pallette of the map.

Labeled City of Obsidian
