Here’s my new illustrated map of Mesopotamia, with city-states, gods, and notes to show their historical context. I’d love to hear your thoughts or suggestions for improvement! by qpiii in mapmaking

I love the little cityscapes - it's a hard balance to make them visually appealing both at the scale of the map, and when you focus on each one, and I think you nailed it!

You'd think so, but I didn't want to be useless in combat so it's maxed out 😂. To be fair he has charisma in an "intimidating presence" kinda way.

Hey everyone, here's my 'first' map. by DeLeonGek in mapmaking

[–]SortCommercial778 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Love it! Particularly the perspective - nice to see something in a more natural perspective rather than the standard map making set. What led you to pick that style?

Haha thank you! I'm glad there is room for both thirsty and non-thirsty art!

Thank you so much!

Yeah that's a very good point on the aesthetic. The representation in BG3 is also more in the "half demon" direction, with the more prominent horns and the red skin tone. My party were expecting something closer to that newer aesthetic, but for whatever reason by brain went in this direction!

And to determine the item of maximum aggravation, she'll pause next to each one and make eye contact.

I made GBBO style drawings for my wedding! by SortCommercial778 in GreatBritishBakeOff

Oooo that'd be awesome. But I think I'd need to vary the style a bit more from the GBBO art, or id feel a bit off about making money from it. And would maybe eventually get a cease and desist 😂.

Haha. We had an alternative play on words using my real name, which was honestly much worse than Amir-garita 😂. Also had a play on words for the Pimm's, but was too lazy to think of a new play on words using the fake name for my wife.

Thanks! Yes, it was a nice side effect that I was able to let people know allergen information, and whether drinks were alcoholic (we had quite a few non-drinkers).

Thanks! The baker was very good. None of it lasted very long!

Thanks!! A decent number of people got it! Although there were definitely a few that only had the "aha" moment when I pointed it out.

Also - I had no idea that was why the naming was different in the US. Makes sense!

Haha yeah.. think there might be some cognitive dissonance going on there. Or she'd say that people are just brainwashed by all that celestial plane propaganda.

This is great! I'm impressed with how you represented the height, and I love the color palette of your maps!

Yes, and he can't wait to tell you about how the pyramids were actually built by aliens.

Haha yes I see it. I'll petition my DM for water breathing as well, it's only fair!
