    Here's a few of my draft fantasy maps

    Good thread. Here's a few draft fantasy maps that I was playing with.. the more developed one was the first one that I made, based on the Black Sea region. I wanted to create a few connected countries, with a fairly central smaller island that would be the focus of the conflict.

    Sadly, I couldn't get my black sea reference map out of my head - it felt like the story was already set there, rather than on the bespoke map i made, so i went back and took a line map of Black Sea area (focused on Crimea) and basically edited it to suit what I wanted for my story. It's not finished yet, obviously, but feels more 'right' (even though it's ripping off an existing place!)

    Well, your maps look interesting, even though I didn't understand them at all.
    I also have a map, but I don't think it's ready to be shown to someone. Maybe sometimes I'll put it in here...

    Thanks. I just used Paint on the computer. It didn't come out too bad though. Im a decent artist though. At least thats my opinion.

    korabas- That's a pretty good map! I focused more on the entire world, because most of my stories involve that place, but I should create smaller maps for the regions and even some towns.

    This is my world, from a large scale.



    Key: The world of Affron

    01: Velecel
    02: Mystelon
    03: Shoul-Hun
    04 Lasaphan

    Each piece has a much more detailed plotting of places and key points. For the time being, a simple world map gives a quick illustrate guide to the world of Affron.

    This is the second draft of my Khayra world map. The first one I did was done in pencil and paper, so this one is large step forward. Khayra World Map by ~Dragonlegends on deviantART I made it in photoshop 7, and it only took an hour to draw up the map using the brush tool and then erasing chunks using the polygonal lasso.

    I know of two great maps. One is in the book Eragon. The other is of Farworld, and here's the link: FarWorld | Written by J. Scott Savage

    The map is in the Extras section.
