    Map Middle-earth + bonus

    Hello again. This map is probably a bit older, but some of you wanted to see some other maps, so here we go. You can even see some tools that I use and there is nothing more to say about it than it's handmade (obviously ) and it's one of a kind.


    Just recently I finished a HUGE (well, for me) project. It's some sort of jewelry box. I know it's vaguely related to maps and cartography at best, but it's a cool idea for a gift and it's not THAT hard to make it. I was inspired by the Alchemy kit sent to selected people by HBO as some sort of an advertisement for the upcoming fantasy series Game of Thrones. When I saw the small wooden box I just fell in love with it and I decided to make myself one. Then I realised, that my sis is turning 30 soon and I did not have even an idea for a fitting gift, so I changed my mind a bit, spent one sunday afternoon thinking, calculating and drawing and two weeks later it was finished. It's perfect gift for your mother, sister or girlfriend. Hell, you can even tune it a little bit and make a luxurious cigar box for your dad or your grandfather's tobacco pipe! The possibilities are limitless and you can learn some things from the process, as I did. Here are some pictures, if you're interested:

    That's beautiful. Have some rep! I did the same map back in 8th grade using nib pens...but I didn't have any red! I think yours looks way better than mine did.
