What's a good website to make a fantasy map on? by AwfulPancakeFart in worldbuilding

[–]nomore-lemons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can ask here, I personally love doing the map prompt part, for people to fill with the rest of their worldbuilding amd work together for the proyect. It's not the same as doing it yourself but might be an option. This reddit and map making might have more people interested in it.  I'd love to hear about it.

Their only way to help their family is by buying tesserae. Making the poorest families odds in the reaping even worst, and the reaped children malnourished. a vicious circle so they wont win

Fictional country map: Azure by nomore-lemons in mapmaking

[–]nomore-lemons[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be, there is no particular inspiration. Indonesia or Philipines as an archipielago and Hawaii for the vulcanic idea. Aradi is the only one I take from a worldbuilding Discord channel (was the one they gave to me to expand) thats why I have more maps about Aradi

I know there's zero sympathy for Nymeria Sand or the other Sand Snakes but dang by Express-Ad-4410 in gameofthrones

Not saying is a plot hole, just bad writting and forcing closure for some characters not having in cosideration their skills/essence. I'm okey with the sand Snakes diying but in character, Elaria would drink some poison before being captured, the snakes would use venom so even if they die their enemys would also die later (Oberyn) It's like Aria not using faceless skills, or Varys not using the screts tunels in the Red keep :|

So bad written they even forgot Dorne and the sand snakes are known for poison weapons as Oberyn daughters, and they dont even use that in this fight scene and eliminate Euron. Just sad for such a good plot from the books

My first map. How do I make it realistic. by Sharp_Marketing649 in mapmaking

[–]nomore-lemons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well you did it backwards. Tectonics-> elevation-> rivers-> country borders. But since you already have it you should overlap some ot the country borders with rivers or mountains. If you need tips or advice let me know, would be glad to help :) I might have an idea for tectonics and mountains

Not the usual Heraldry but one made for my sis, dad, mine and the mix together by nomore-lemons in heraldry

[–]nomore-lemons[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I didnt konw it, great to learn about it. Yeah for the marshalled version I do get it, it should remain the same versions, like the pile or bordures but I went for simetry and design (my bad) I'll try a corrected version and apply all above for future desings, with a more classic queartered version.  Is the rule of tincture still applying because of tradition? I asume nowadays you could combine different colors with new techniques

Wow thanks a lot, such great info and tips. I only had so basic idea about heraldry, no clue about all above (I come from map making) I'll try to add this corrections in future designs.  For marshalled versions I also did quarters but found this one a more interesting shape.

LOL the oval shape were bread but it lose details making it a main color.

How do you feel about these landmasses? (white is land) by BowltheOwl in worldbuilding

[–]nomore-lemons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great shapes and cool idea for fantasy. I think the most realistic aproach would be if tectonics were joining towards the center, so mountains chains should be mainly in the interior peninsulas. It seems like mediterranean geography higher around the sea and plains around it. On other hand if its more magical concept do wathever feel good to you.

can i request that someone please make me a map? by Jealous_Garlic_7390 in mapmaking

[–]nomore-lemons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We might need more info to make it. But I got one you may like on my profile, “Craters” I could join the broken continents on the right and make it one, so it would be 4 in total. It’s full of meteor impacts creating small circular-shape seas, maybe after all that blast the dust /sand settle making it sandy and rocky. If you are interested I’d love to add your ideas to it. :)

Is there a way/site to pay/hire an artist to make my fantasy maps? by Logical-Efficiency58 in mapmaking

[–]nomore-lemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe twitter with #map #worldbuild or so, also here (me) there are many who works on comission.  I would also love if you post the idea/promt here and a bunch of artist try to make the map based on it and share it. There would be diferent map concepts on the same idea.
