Map Time!


I was digging through some old files and found this one lurking in a dusty file.  I like this map, but wish I'd used a subtler blue for the shallow water. Again, this one was drawn in pencil then outlined and filled in with color pencils.  Then I scanned it in, opened it up in Paint to draw in the buildings and place the numbers.

  1. Looks great. I still love to draw my maps by hand. Give's it the old school feel.

  2. I love your maps. I wish I could do a job that nice by hand. Heck, scratch that. I wish I could do a job that nice with the computer...

  4. Thanks guys. I appreciate the compliments. I love doing them while I'm watching a movie or show. My favorite colored pencils are Crayola. I've had the fancy artist ones, but Crayola has a lot better color for my money. Plus I can get a bunch for cheap.
