Pretty set! You've became a master for the "mos eiley" palette and feel . The last one is my favourite, I really like the frame as well.
So after finishing my challenge entry, i played with the idea of entering the #mapvember "challenge" after seeing all the lovely posts around here and at twitter. With the nice list of topics provided by Miska, i thought it would fit perfect, to start a series of small maps all in the same setting (an arid planet suffering under a colonial war... sounds familiar, hmm... )
I already have a rough outline of a story connecting the different locations, but i think it's also just nice to have a (more or less) coherent set of small local maps for a sci-fi setting in the end to share it with anyone interested.
The last three days, i started with the first three maps:
1: #Beacon

2: #Derelict
#2Derelict.jpg
3: #Descent
#3Descent.jpg
Enjoy!
NICE!
Also quite funky and original style showcasing in the derelict cave for instance.

Pretty much all my maps are drawn by hand - ink on paper - and then scanned and contrast-enhanced
Glad to see you back and on this topic
@Ilanthar: Thank you! Yes, since "Musfat Spaceport", i always come back to it .
@Dyson: Many thanks! Means a lot coming from one of the "Grand maîtres" of mapping.
@Thomrey: I'm glad you guys started this mapvember madness!
So, here is #4 and #5 in one map. #4 is a sacred place of one group of natives on the planet, with access only via the bridges from the "hangars" on smaller plateaus nearby (#5), where a small monastic group lives together with the sacred "white birds", which are also used as flying mounts...

I love the sacred white birds. Strong Moebius feels to it.

@ dyson: Well, sometimes i just cannot resist these all too obvious citations. @ thomas: Ofc, Arzak is in one of these caves...you know, to draw a rider on top wouldn't have been a problem for me at all , but i just had to stick to the story here... XD
I haven't worked on these for a while and all of a sudden i found myself with ink and graph paper once again

I chose to continue with #10 of Miska's list, not only because Mapvember is already long ago, but because i planned to do #6-9 all somewhat related in the "Colony" setting of that planet... So here is another sacred mesa of the natives where they elevate their gifts to the winds.
I like this one
What kind of pen do you use?
When you've done the drawing I presume you scan it and colour it in PS?
