A Few New Maps

[Pyrandon]

Hello, everyone. I just wanted to share a few of my latest maps.

The first is a "player handout" map depicting both the setting and the story of a fictional saint's martyrdom. This is, of course, emulating a 12th-13th century European map/illuminated text.

The other two attachments are mosaic tile maps for adventurers to discover on the walls of a long-lost ruin. Obviously, these take their influence from ancient Greece & Rome.

I hope you enjoy these. Take care,
Don

Those are excellent. Well done.

 

[DanChops]

Wow, very well done. How did you do that?

 

[blobsticks]

Yeah, they're some pretty well done maps. I wish RPG publishers would take a note out of your book and do their maps this well. Really, good stuff

 

[BastionLightbringer]

Wow, those are great. I never saw fantasy maps look so historical. Good job.

Thank you all for the responses. I'm so glad you liked these.

DanChops asked how I made them: I used Photoshop for all three. The Martyr map is basically a series of hand drawn images I scanned in, assembled, & colorized + tweaked here and there. The mosaic maps were basically line drawings I stroked with a custom brush, then ran some layer styles upon (and tweaked a lot). (I wrote a tutorial on the mosaic method if you're interested, it's posted here).

Again, thanks for the comments. My maps are created mainly for personal enjoyment, and it's nice when others enjoy them too.

PS: Hey Arbiter, I have a Paypal account...

Wonderful tutorial. Thanks a ton for that Pyrandon. I'm excited to get home from work and work through it.
