I sketched my own map of Hawkins (based on Hopper's) while I wait for the finale. Some locations had to swap places to match season 4 events, and I added some extra, but I' fairly happy with the result

How I created my Gotham map (Substack). In spanish, but we've got AI these days, so it should be more or less ok if anyone is interested.

This one has been a real puzzle!

Plan of Canaan House, from Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir. Completely non official and compiled by me through an (obsessive) analysis of the text. Beware of spoilers if you haven't read the book

I've done this map of Acheron after Alien I-II and the comicbooks. I calculated distances accounting for Ilium range, travel time from the delerict ship to Hadley's Hope and the range of the atmosphere processor explosion. I assembled the galaxy map from different sources.

So here's my plan of Innsmouth, based on references I found online and, of course, in the Shadow Over Innsmouth by H.P. Lovecraft., to go along with my original Arkham plan.

I've finally sketched my version of the Known World in A Song of Fire and Ice, from GRR Martin (or, at least, the parts of it referred in the books). De Atramentis ink on A3 Ryman sketchbook, as usual.

I made myself (for fun) a map from Encanto, based on old maps from South America. One more for my ever growing collection

If you’ve been around for a while, you should know I like to draw fantasy maps. This one is based on the map they show a couple of times in Arcane (Netfilx). Since we never get the full view, plus details are scarce, I completed it following the logic of the show, filled some details using graphics from League of Legends (I don’t play the game, so it’s just visual reference) and added my own parts to wrap up the whole thing. Done by hand, using a fountain pen and de Atramentis Urban Sienna Document ink
