I'm positive nobody is reading this but that is okay. Ideal actually.
I am just starting out in a new hobby which is obviously cartography. Instead of posting a new thread every time I draw a crappy map, I can just update my progress with a new blog entry. In addition I can kind of just think out loud about my thought process and whatever when I update it. I know nobody is going to want to hear me blab about this in my personal life; not until they see my epic super maps anyway.
My main goal with map making is to completely map out a story setting I have been thinking about since 2015 I currently call NV, when I worked at the most boring millwork on the planet. I also just like drawing and am curious how much I will feel motivated to keep drawing maps after I (hopefully) finish my setting.
This is the first map I drew after finding out about this website. I call it Fia. Something about finding a place where people take this seriously just made me want to take this seriously. I guess I never really thought about people making maps before very much. Anyway, I just absent mindedly drew this while watching a movie or something and for some reason just really liked it.
This is the first revision of Fia which I really don't like. At the time of writing this I have the third revision almost done, which I also don't like. I don't think I'm going even bother finishing it because I think I know what I like and don't like about it.
