Aaand that's the base map complete! I changed the colouring a bit, I think I like this more. Added mountains and changed the colour of the lineart. If you like it, tell me and I'll see if I can imagine up cities, trade routes and stuff :3

Since it's still Trans Day of Visibility in some parts of the world, would y'all mind lending me a hand? I'm a young trans guy saving for my education and medical bills and I'd love some help - sharing my art, donating to my ko-fi (@ thewelshbard), anything really! :)

Another map! This one's digital, and a work in progress. I took a caldera, a volcano that explodes and floods with water (the Galapagos Islands are full of them), and supersized it. I absolutely love these islands in real life, I think they're so cool, so I thought - hey, why not make it big and magical? A friend pointed out it looks like an ourobouros, too, so I might lean into the snake-y theme for the markers.

I did a quick little map today. Just black fineliner in an old cheap sketchbook. And I impulsively added a reference to the latest episode of Critical Role >:3

Reblogs always appreciated!

Hello, I hope you're well! Welcome to my blog. ヾ(•ω•`)o

I'm a nerd with a love of fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure - here, you'll find OCs and D&D characters, cartography (that's map-making), and an assortment of other stuff I hope you'll like, maybe even some fanart.

I don't have a Patreon, and I'm not yet comfortable offering my art/creations for money (but I'm not ruling it out for the future). If you like what I do and want to help me out financially, I have a Ko-fi linked in the explore tab. If you want to help me out in other ways, I really appreciate reblogs, telling your friends about me, messages of support, all that awesomeness. Thanks!

Finally, please don't repost my work, don't claim my work was done by you, and don't make money from my work. It's rude, and I put a lot of effort into my creations.

Edit as of 19/03/22: I'll probably be sporadic for a little bit, sorry; I'm in a bad place right now and jumping through bureaucratic and medical hoops, so I don't have much energy for creativity. I hope you'll stick around anyway? (❁´◡`❁)
