This map is a fantastical representation of the Canadian Maritimes. It comes to you in the high quality reproduction of an ink and watercolour original. A statement in any room, it makes for a truly unique gift for fans of high fantasy, especially those with a connection to New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia.

Plase share, and help me reach those who may be in need of a new map for their story, thank you! <3

Black and white, digitally hand-drawn portal fantasy map. It depicts a coastal sea of Caldera, and country of Lexanard bordering Payettek and Doyemere. In the sea dwells a tentacle monster right next to the neat compass in the right lower corner.

Lexanard depicts places like Ashfort, a withered village that has been ravaged many a time, and Silverstone mine - both in the left upper corner of the country. Below them are the Flower Fields full of flora that is hungry to eat people, and a portal the begins the story of the book. Below that at the coast is city of Laeford, with a port below it with a lighthouse leading the way. Behing the lighthouse are clark meadows, village of Candle Cove, and a little lake that connects to the sea by a Raging River that has dangerous crocodiles living in it.

Above Candle Cove is Zackick, a town made of temporary dwellings, like tents. Above that is the capital city of Lexanard, known as Redadore. The city is grand with great dome-like towers and grand bridges and walkways.

On the middle right of Lexanard, right by the border before Doyemere is Saincaster, a quaint little town with a small lake right next to it.

All of the main places are connected with various type of roads from mainroads, to common roads and smaller trails.

The map looks cozy, with individually drawn trees of various kinds - leafy greens and firs dot the landscape.

The titlework is also hand drawn and inspired by the author's description of their world.

Black and White, large fantasy map. Edges of the map have small decorations of leaves, and framing rectangular lines. In the left hand bottom corner is a medieval-inspired drake, surrounded by curled leaves. On the left bottom corner is a special themed compass with the style that fits Hannah Steenbock's (the client) book covers. At the top reds the name of the book this map was made for "Winds of Destiny" in handwritten, fantasy styled typography. The surrounding sea depicts a galley in the center left, a whale at center right, and two dolphins at the bottom center. Locations on the map top to bottom depicts places like: Iceburg, The Holy Empire, Holy City, Yellow Ford, Jungle Fortress, Anoeira, and more. There are multiple types of vegetation from icy tundra, to jungle, and desert. Each tree and forest is hand-drawn one by one. The style is inspired by Tolkien.

Hand drawn digital drawing of a fantasy map. Black and white theme. Map displays an island-like world with a surrounding seas - Habarkin sea, Dagrelian sea, Elberfin sea, and two sea monsters. In thw world are places like - Lichstein at the top, Arralia in the middle, Rogue states to the right, and Gran Republic to the bottom. In the middle is Heathens' Hollow. The map displays cities, sandworms, small towns, crops, different biomes, a mountain, and many points of intrests - like a witches' cave.

#throwbackthursday to one of my favourite #TTRPG themed poster that I created: Dicey Adventures!

https://thevoyagersworkshop.com/search?q=dicey

In tabletop role-playing games, your dice rolls can make a real impact on the adventures you live. This full-colour poster is a whimsical interpretation of that idea, brought to you as a beautiful storytelling map where the wind rose doesn't point to the cardinal points but to the stories of pen and paper you are a part of.

In the 1920's no one could unveil the culture of the time and drape it with humor like John Held Jr. Here, his prohibition era map for the night clubs, and the alcohol culture of the region. Love the vignette at top right of the mayor on an all night bender saying hello to the average gent heading off to work in the morning.

A look back at an older set of maps for #throwbackthursday ! Paleo Gaming commissioned me to create a map of their fantasy setting, Draconia. I also got the chance to create a large map of one of its main continents, Tristor. Even though the maps are in sepia, they are filed with tons of flavourful storytelling seeds!
