Description This is the first attempt on a world map. It shows all the known cities in the main continent (the rest of the world map will come in future expansions), but it's far from beeing scale accurate (specially since it is perspectivated). got this around my computer for a while, and I thought it could be a good moment to show it

Prismacolor markers on a normal paper, photoshop for the old paper texture.

Comments and critics please!!! I would love to know what you guys think about the World of Aria!

very interesting looking map. It may have the sketchy look what matches to the colour and presentation of the world in this map anyhow good. also together with the aged background.

the hanging city with 4 pillars... what is the name of that city?
what race live in there?
*curious, coz it looks cool and creative :3*

The cities don't have names yet, they have characteristics and some architectural features related to them, but no names. That hanging city is the city of the Gards. Almost all the gards lives there or in the surroundings.

It's all a matter of practice. I can't make good vector colorings, while you mastered that technique.

Do you need any map in the near future? I could draw it for you I sorta enjoyed doing this one

I can also try to answer your doubts about it ^-^

Nice work. Better than the hand-drawn one in my gallery.

Inarispellborn In reply to Navaunir [2009-10-12 18:22:53 +0000 UTC]

This one is hand-drawn too, and colored with markers, but got a huge boost with photoshop textures . Do you think you can manage to scan your map in a better resolution? with pictures the tendency is to get all blurry, so if you manage to get a good image of it, I could give it some nice effects on the computer.

Navaunir In reply to Inarispellborn [2009-10-13 18:28:24 +0000 UTC]

The whole thing was drawn on a simple piece of computer paper some long while back in one art class that was really boring. I still have it, but my scanner wasn't working that day, so the picture you see is actually a photograph (cough, can you say ghetto?). I myself have Gimp and could edit it, but I'd be fine if you were to do it, since I really put things off (be prepared to see the revised drawing a year and a half from now ), especially if I don't HAVE to do them.

Inarispellborn In reply to Navaunir [2009-10-14 02:46:00 +0000 UTC]

If you wish to do so, you can send me when you scan it, or alternatively, you can redraw it sooner and send me the revised version. Either way, I would be glad to do so, and I can send you my email later through a note.

Navaunir In reply to Inarispellborn [2009-10-14 18:50:15 +0000 UTC]

I also meant to say that it's going to take me a long while to even get to scanning the page again. I have to write two papers within the course of almost tomorrow, and plus read five short stories and do Calculus homework where one problem can take up to ten minutes, and after all that is done, I'll really feel like poo.
But, I might re-post it eventually. *hopeful*

What exactly is this for? Is it a story or...?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Inarispellborn In reply to PyromaniacInsomniac [2009-10-12 01:51:48 +0000 UTC]

Its an RPG scenario. I wish I had the budget to turn it into an online game, but since that's not gonna happen, it's going to be "just" a paper and pen RPG book(wich will take a huge amount of work by itself, but at least is a reacheable objective).

PyromaniacInsomniac In reply to Inarispellborn [2009-10-12 01:57:01 +0000 UTC]

Ah. It could turn out very nice as a novel. Perhaps once it gets popular enough you could do that.

Inarispellborn In reply to PyromaniacInsomniac [2009-10-12 02:02:07 +0000 UTC]

Once the world is ready, as well as the main NPCs, cities and etc, I may have the material to write a novel (for some reason, for me the world comes before the history, even though some details and events are starting to show here and there). But I must admit I'm not good at writting novels. I tend to get stuck in the first pages criticizing every single word I wrote .

That makes a good writer there. You're self-editing which, with another editor, will make an amazing story.

wow amazing
i love it, specially that hanging city, very creative,

one question what do the compas letters stand for?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Inarispellborn In reply to Eroha [2009-10-12 01:45:29 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

N for north, S for south, O for west (oeste in portuguese) and L for east (leste).

I still gotta finish the illustration for that city, but it was looking quite cool in the sketch, drawing chains can be quite complicated also XD

ohhhhh, can't wait to see it, if there's a position for city ruler can i be it , hehehe i promise i'll be as evil as ever , yeah chains are so annoying even in photoshop, i remeber doing big ones for the pic "echoes of the damned" it almost took forever to draw n there weren't that many, but still a nightmare wen ur only using a mouse
