Glorantha Dragon Lands - by Darran
Map (Click to enlarge)
Created in: Hand drawn
Review
This map by Darran has caught a few people's eyes and it's a handdrawn beauty. It's a RuneQuest map of a part of Glorantha and I doubt that it could have been made using software.
It is the view of many in the Guild that regardless of the software at our disposal, a map drawn by hand is hard to beat for personality and this is a perfect example.

I edited the OP. It appears that the board has case sensitive filenames, so I just modified the URL to change the case of the map name.

Thanks jf, it was late and I'd had a few bevvies....should have checked the links after I posted it!
Wow!
Thanks guys.
I have just noticed this on the front page now.
I'll get the next version of the map posted up tomorrow along with a few different ways of representing the marsh.
