Falnax Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 So, since I'd like to offer some sort of useful skill to the community, and I enjoy making maps, I decided to create a little shop for this…my mapmaking may not be perfect, but it can easily spice up a young WIP.Note: These are world maps. They are not in-game area maps. Just making that clear. Do not ask me to be the mapper for your game, because it is a completely different proposition.When you ask for a map, either submit a rough drawing of what you want the world to look like, or specify the number and approximate sizes of continents/islands desired. I would prefer to have a name for the world, and names for several pieces of geography, so I can label the map, but this is not required. If there are any exceptional features, which would be important for the plot and must be a certain shape, or shown in a certain way, please communicate this to me. I will not redo maps because they "don't look the way you saw it in your head."You may use maps I have made for you freely, provided that you give me some sort of crediting for it. You may edit maps that I have made, provided the edits are of equal or greater quality than my original product. If you need alterations made to the maps, please feel free to ask me, and I will probably be willing to do them. You may not use maps that I have created for other people.Here's a gallery of maps I've done before; you may use these to get an idea of how you'd like your map to be done, but you may not use any of them, except for the FFVII one. You can do whatever you want with that thing. If your map is here, and you wish it wasn't, please PM me a request to remove it.Destina Archipelago (StngRye's Destiny Online):http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/DestinaS.pngHypothetical World of Shadowwulf's:http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/TinyCGMap.pngNovalÃÂs, as a continent, and NovalÃÂs, as a star system:http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/NovalisNationss-1.pnghttp://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/StarNovalsPresentation.pngLostica; Genesis Island, Rubidoux, Underworld:http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/LosticaMap-1.pnghttp://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/LosticaMap2.pnghttp://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/UnderworldTest2.pngFinal Fantasy VII World Map:http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/FF7WorldMaps.pngZarconia (Setting made by a friend):http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/ZarconiaPresentationCopy.jpgEmbra Kaud (Quite Old):http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/Amperglyph/EKXB.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falnax Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Will do. You're second on my list right now (and both my pending requests are dark. How about that.), so hopefully I'll be able to get it to you sometime tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddunit Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 By accident you actually gave us previews on Lostica and Novalis :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khachaturian Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Lol the hamburger map.And yea, I caught on to that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falnax Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 @‡ƒorce‡DDunit‡:> By accident you actually gave us previews on Lostica and Novalis :PExcept that, with those two conflicting maps, it's hard to get a handle on what NovalÃÂs really is anyway…no idea as to how the Lostica map will affect things, but since Miguu isn't a secret freak, I don't really see how the Underworld map's release will really hurt. Not to mention that, hopefully, he's going in a different direction with his third region now, seeing as it was really out of tone for the game...Also, if at all possible, I would like people to post their requests here, as Munro did, rather than sending the request as a PM. I'd prefer to keep the requests all in one place, and my inbox is not that place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falnax Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 @SyIexus:> did u get my pm?Yes, I did. Why do you ask? Because, trust me, the map is definitely not done yet. I don't expect to have the first maps requested through this service done until tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devogen Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Ok this would be a very brief example, no labels, no colouring - just a hand drawn black and white height map converted in a terrain editor. I should find a photoshopped one i did many moons ago. PM's are not working for me atm, my Internet explorer crashes when i send one, back to firefox i guess. To convert this to a 'cartographic' style would be simply some photoshop filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
