I like how you draw your cities
Thanks! That's the first time I tried something like that.
Of course, I saw it elsewhere and then tried to replicate it.
Which creators do you draw inspiration from?
Edit: No pun intended but I'll take it.
In general? Randy Musseau, Dyson Logos, Mike Schley, Eneko Menika, and Guillaume Tavernier.
But I also lurk in mapmaking communities and gawk at all kinds of maps.
I think only @dysonlogos has a fediverse presence. Any chance you draw micro-maps every now and then? ;)
@rpg20 How micro?
@dysonlogos I don’t think there’s a hard rule (for the @micro_maps community) but someone already asked if index card is a valid size (it is). Or maybe post-it sized.
@rpg20 @micro_maps
Oh yeah, I post a significant number of index card maps. Rarey anything smaller though these days.
not like some of the ones I used to draw like this:
I am only directly familiar with Dyson so I'll have to check out the others. Thanks!
I guess only Dyson and Schley are widely known. But do check them out.
