Personal Project Maps
While some of these I've published as stand-alone map products, most of experiments on concepts and styles for personal learning experiences. Some are fully hand-drawn, some hand-drawn/digital hybrids, some purely digital vector drawn maps, some 3D...
Saxon Ring Fort - dark ages style saxon hall within a ring fort. Vector drawn purely digital map
Castaway Isle - a ship wrecked castaway site with small fort, on a tropical island, 3D designed sunken schooner in bay, and 3D fish.
Crown Colonies, 18th century styled map of a ficticious emulation of North American east coast. Imagined a Roman Britain (see compass rose with Roman compass directions), English Lit and historical references throughout. Hand-drawn map.
Kappa Temple carved from a turtle shaped rock, this is the exterior view though the full map contains 4 floors within. Digital vecto and 3D elements combined map.
Anubia, fictional Egyptian inspired city map with Anubis reclining sphinx, used Luxor temple site for inspiration, and Yemeni archecture in mercantile areas.
Mad Max Motocross Track - post apocalyptic bombed factory site made into a motorcross track.
Maelstrom - a whirlpool of land, not sea for a completely imaginative, unrealistic concept - just for fun. Took me 20 minutes to do this.
Yuleblood map, a contest entry, that I made into a "not-for-children" Children's Book with tongue-in-cheek humor only a gamer could appreciate. There is a deliberate cartoony style in the drawing of the map and book illustrations.
Ryukyo (Sea Dragon City), is an undersea city of merfolk and shark-changers ruled by a sea dragon, using a depth in water effect I developed and often use involving stacked layers of transparent blue
