Unfortunatly I don't have the time to do it before the 31st, I have a big commission that has to be done before the 24th.
I hope you find a suitable mapper!
OVERVIEW
I am a self-published author with three books (humorous young adult fantasies).
I have more info about the maps I need (written descriptions and drawings) here:
http://theuniversebuilders.com/map-1/
http://theuniversebuilders.com/map-2/
STYLE
Map style should be consistent with a fantasy map with appropriate shading. Color is not needed.
The first map is a planet drawn as a globe so the viewer can see the unusual topography of the planet.
The second map highlights a small section of the planet. It's from a considerable elevation so we need to see a long mountain range, forest area, foothills, desert sand, and specific landmarks (mostly villages). It's from too far away to show individual buildings.
QUALITY & SIZE
The images will be used for print and web.
TIME CONSTRAINTS
I would like images completed by January 31, 2017, but I do have some flexibility.
COPYRIGHT
I want exclusive rights for five years to use any or all of these images in my books and/or on my website and/or promotional materials. After five years, I want the non-exclusive right to use the images indefinitely.
COMPENSATION PROPOSAL
Initial payment via PayPal of $30 for the first image. The artist will render a preliminary sketch. After I sign off, the artist will complete the final image. When the final sketch is approved, the final payment ($30) will be made within 24 hours.
If my publisher decides to use the images, then I will compensate the artist an additional $40 for each image used. The artist will also receive credit in the book for their work.
CONTACT DETAILS
Please provide a link to your portfolio so I can see samples of your work.
I have not contracted for map drawing services before, so if my requests are unclear or my expectations are unrealistic, please let me know. Thank you!

Hey Steve,

I just updated the sketches for this map.

I think this will make everything more clear and easier to understand.
