He wanted a 3kx3k map, and he told me what I needed to do, so I gave it a go and I think it turned out very well. The client thought the same!
still want to see vannila screenshots, not huge map renders x3

I would not recommend this map maker.


I asked for a high quality map with very specific guidelines. Something that should have taken at least 1-2 weeks to complete. He sent me photos from the first hour on what I assumed were early structure to the entire map. I approved as I thought it was going the right direction. I was surprised when he came back to me 3 hours with no word and demanded me to send the money into his paypal as he claimed he was done with what should have been a detailed map. No pictures, no communication with me, not even a damn approval. Learn to conduct business with your clients next time. I wasn't looking for no half assed job and you knew that.

10/10 would block him a second time for trying to scam me like that.
Screenshots?

El3aab just one question. That overviewing 'render' of his, was that all he showed you? If so, that was a bit of a goof on his part. That's worldpainter's built-in overview, whereas Aekalix showed you a dynmap overview, which actually includes trees and the likes. Worldpainter's overview does not. Apart from that, both maps look to be of similar quality.

I did not show him a dynmap overview.

my bad, he must've created that himself. it definitely is a dynmap overview or something very similar. its not WP overview, nor is it a chunky or C4D render.

I can assure you the quality is completely different. I'm away from home right now so i cant show the world painter 3d view yet. Give me about an hour.

Also to answer your question, yes, that's all he showed me.
hm, it looks quite similar to me. the shaping of the other map is different, and the limited thing I can see shows that the block palette is different.
However, I'm used to quite decent maps from Priester, so you can imagine I'm quite surprised.
you know what? how about you show me a couple of unshaded screenshots over PM, and I'll ask Priester for some unshaded screenshots of his map (unless you possess that as well?).
I'll take a look to compare them.

that's not quite relevant, to me anyway. I'm mostly aiming to determine how significant the difference in quality was. I'll get his side of the story out of him whenever he wakes up/comes online.
It's probably a case of him underestimating the level of quality you want. I've had that happen a few times in my early days as a commissioned builder, and later as a terraformer as well.
