wip wednesday

probably can guess which one this is (haven't finished carving away at it, yet...) but I am working on making zone maps based off the ESO ones; I was inspired thinking about the Necrom one I did a while back. It was really fun, and since it was a smaller area, I could do more fun details

Yeah

Nah

Fantasy Story WIP Map

This will be the inside image of the map for the WIP

[xiaofiaan]

The land of Faerie was vast.  Islands upon islands of different biomes and terrains.  I... wasn’t expecting anything like it.  Each court had it’s own pros, each had it’s own cons.  The Winter Court was set in complete cold and snow for Spirit’s sake!  It wasn’t like anything I’ve ever seen before...

Mountains held together by vines, towns inside and around cliff sides, training ground bustling with faeries of all different species.  Each town was different than the last.  Some had homes made of clay, others were as tiny as the palm of your hand and made of flowers, and some were simple huts near the sea.    I could go on and on.  The people were as different as the cities too.  Some had wings, other’s had cloaks of scales.  Each faerie seemed to belong to the environment itself.  Of course, there were different ones, like me, but there was never too many.

I visited each Court, but even then there was so much.  People talked of a lost Court, a lost place not accessible even here in another realm.  There was also talk of an old abandoned island.  The Ghost’s Descent, they called it.  Never had the balls to go see what was up there. 

I do wonder though.

Welcome to Maaren!

[image id: a watercolor map of Maaren, which I scanned. It depicts a city at the delta of a river, and the Avian city carved in the canyon cliffs that the river cuts through, with houses stacked atop each other like a jenga tower and stretching up the length of the river. At the edge of the inland mountains there’s a gate into the Avian city made of two giant statues of the founders of the city with their wings stretching over the river. Just inside the gate is a massive building towering above the peaks of the mountains that serves as the Magistra court and Academy. 

Near the river delta is farmland that feeds the rest of the human city that crowds around the river, mountains, and sea. In the city are two places of note - the Atilan palace and the Arena. In the top right corner is the anarchist camp. Arga points north across the Maariad Sea but is not pictured in this map. a compass rose is at bottom center. The paper is weathered and browned and creased, and the edges are ripped from time. End image ID.]

wow this is long overdue

Hi! now you guys can know what on earth I’m talking about when I reference places in my book! 

This was my first ever attempt at watercolor and for the fact that I didn’t have watercolor paper and it ended up looking ancient and messed up, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Maaren is a city state on the southern continent in the world of Laoche that I’ve not yet named. I’m going to make another map that shows Laoche as a whole (or at least the relevant places for my series) eventually, including Maaren, the archipelago islands, and a bunch of other cool stuff that’s still in development currently. 

Let me know what you think! (and if you have any suggestions on how to actually paint well, I will gladly take any tips you’ve got)

I think Storge's map is coming along nicely. Once it's dry and I can brush off the tea leaves, I'll go over the important details in ink and add labels by hand.
