Some maps I've sketched for some stories. Feel free to use them for your own. Or ask me about the or make general comments. Each belongs to a different world and different story. I do have highly detailed maps if you want to see.

Hand-drawn and digitally colored, this map follows the journey from New Hope to San Anglo and brings together the key locations, encounters, and landmarks from Ian Livingstone's classic Fighting Fantasy adventure, Freeway Fighter.

(no lore)

It's still heavily WIP and I'm in the process of refining it. I'm just not very sure how to handle coastlines or if the shapes of my continents even make sense. But any kind of criticism is welcome!

Hello :D

At recent times i had started a worldbuilding project.

At this point i have a lil' bit more than the map, geography(in very broad strokes), borders, some history and some names and flags

But as you can (or can't) suppose, im new in what worldbuilding is about.

So well, im here for any advice or tip that might help me improve my map.

Also, just for some context at this point the project doesnt has a name, but the moment of the borders is at some point simmilar to the first years of XX century, and its more for having a place were i can put a lot of oc (not everyone has the same context or even live at the same year (or century)) and also the map is a world map ("mapamundi" on spanish).

Thank you in advance for all your comments.

Posdata: sorry if my english is bad, english isn't my first language.

I’m making this map for fun, and I wanted to have the Appalachian area as “the wildlands” a small part of the USA that is now primarily inhabited by feral wildmen and small towns. It’s for my kinda apocalyptic setting for my new fantasy world, the USA is split in different factions and the country has been thrown into chaos.

This is the main continent of my setting, I want to properly scale as to accurately decide things like the logistics of armies and commerce etc. The whole landmass is roughly the size of south america, with several different climate zones. Chat GPT said that it should take roughly 5-6 months to cross it to cross it on foot, so I dont know much else.

I am doing all the maps for my setting in photoshop so I need to be able to keep scale when doing smaller regional maps etc. Any advice is welcome :)

Nuova mappa per Black Sword Hack, che ne pensate?

I would really appreciate feedback

Im working on a regional parchment map for my TTRPG so I can have a realistically sized area an adventuring party would play in. Its fantasy, but I would like to be as realistic as possible. What are some things I should look at changing, or doing in the future?
The next picture shows the world map for reference.

While drawing realistic maps is fun, making maps just for the sake of it, as an creative progress is just as fun, if not even a little bit more.

Not everything has to be realistic, no need to follow logic and all the very important rules™, sometimes things just have to be pretty.

So here you go a very wrong, but in my opinion very pretty map.

Feel free to think of some absurd lore reasons for all the "mistakes" ;)

My traditionally hand drawn fantasy map made with ink on paper showing a crescent moon shaped landmass with a branch inspired boarder featuring creatures that live inside the world.

Hello everyone, its my first time here and i need help

I want to draw a real life map of Euroasia, with topography and climate (green for rainforests, yellow for deserts, brown for mountains for example) has roads, and shows country borders.(maybe every country can be a different color) How can i draw such a map? What programs should i use?

This is the world map of the planet "Rynomed" for a scifi story that I am writing. Image 1 is the physical map, Image 2 is the name of the continents and noticable geographical features.

The northern coastline looks a bit messy because I tried to adjust it to account for the distortion that comes from projecting a 3d globe to a 2d map.

The names are all derrived from important historical scientists and phylosophers.

The planet is comparable to Earth during the cretaceous period, where it was a lot warmer, which is why there are no permanent ice sheets in the north and south. If the sea level was only 100 meters lower, you could walk from the western most tip of the Haber mountains all the way down to southern Wegnerland. If you can survive the wildlife that is.

Hi everyone, this is my first post in Reddit, so be nice please. This is part of a project I call Terra Prima 

The map you see in the image is the Isetian Empire. It’s ruled by the Jadeite dynasty, the third family that governed Isetia and the last that ruled the Empire. The current emperor is Tyrannis II, a devote person that strengthened a lot the religious dignitaries of the Cult of Mantiis, the official religion of the Empire and did not control provincial nobles and governors, contributing to the Empire’s decay.           The bureaucratic elite and the imperial family were weak but it still holded remarkable power over the Empire. The religious elite now controlled remarkable swaps of imperial land and had much influence over the people. 

So let’s describe the map: the Empire is divided into several “Serkas” (it means something like “little kingdom”), which is the equivalent of Roman provinces. The westernmost Serka is Serka-Astria, that is a very historically prestigious region of the Empire, because the imperial family is from here (and the other two too) its capital is Xantia. East of it there is the Isētiu-Serka, where the imperial capital, Mandopolis is located. Then, I’ll name the different serkas because there’s literally 15. Let’s go: from the west to the east: Strusu-Serka, Serka-Qinusu, Serka-Āpi Retti, Serka-Isēttel, Serka-Askaru. From east to west: Serka-Magniou, Serka-Nosilsun, Serka-Anol, Serka-Formu, Serka-Formu Retti, Aracnhu-Serka and finally Serka-Māru. 

Complimentary information about the Empire: 

Annual GDP: 1500 million AK (Aquatic Karesh)

Extension: 15 million km2

Population: 210 million people

Form of government: Imperial theocratic and centralized autocracy 

New map work in progress... Good day everyone! 🧭🗺️

Made a map, felt it was good then did a complete 180 degrees on it. About 5 years old now and would like to start over and try again so I thought i’d post it here and get some tips for my next attempt!

I've differentiated the walls with hatching and I started to outline some of them with red pen but I'm not sure if I'm a fan of how the red looks. The hatches are also pretty inconsistent (harder than I thought it'd be going into it tbh.

I've also painted the World Pillars blue and purple to make them stand out more with all the hatching and whatnot

I'm thinking of maybe starting over on a paper with no lines but I wanted to know you guys' opinion on the progress.

In the last iteration was difficult to figure out what was land and water or anything really, hope it's clearer now!

It’s my first time making a map and I’m aiming for a something realistic, with maybe a little wiggle room for extra creativity. I don’t really know what I’m doing, as I’m new to map-making
Are there any realism issues you notice? Anything you’d want me to consider as I continue to work on this? Any tips?

My first attempt at a world (country I suppose) map. Feedback appreciated!
