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?

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.

@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!

[–] roflo1@ttrpg.network 2 points 13 hours ago

I guess only Dyson and Schley are widely known. But do check them out.
