MAP CALL FOR UNSTABLE UNIVERSE

why hello there!!! hope i got your attention. i, mutt, am planning to animate Parrot's first Unstable Universe video: "This Button Destroys the World". However to do this, I would need a LOT of help, considering the video is roughly 40 minutes long. So, here's a MAP call to see who would be interested!

please reblog this if you think you could help share the post! i'll probably make a discord server for this if it gets enough traction.

In 1977, Karen Wynn Fonstad, a novice cartographer from Oshkosh, Wis., made a long-shot cold call to J.R.R. Tolkien’s publisher. She was hoping to land a dream assignment: to create an atlas of Middle-earth, the setting of “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings.” To her surprise, an editor loved the idea and secured her permission from the Tolkien estate.

Fonstad, who had two young children, worked mostly at night for the next two and a half years to publish “The Atlas of Middle-earth,” which wowed fans and scholars with its exquisite level of detail. Her work is now considered a crown jewel of fantasy mapmaking.

I'm making a world map for a fantasy project and it's taken me 42 minutes to get down the basic continent outlines and I regret everything

So, gamers, worldbuilders, writers, and whoever else may be interested in fake maps: please note that the very finest in fake maps for your fantasy world would be:

(little TA-DA noise)

COW SPOTS.

Also, the map can be reversed from brown-land and white-water to brown-water and white-land. Either one is a complex and compelling world. Throw a few mountain ranges in there and a desert or two; Boom! I give you, the Isle (sea, continent, enchanted land) of Guernsey.

No worldbuilding with Friend post today, I've been busy this past week and haven't had the energy to even think of a topic. Have a shot of the latest progress in my ever ongoing map work.

Does anyone have any good tips or resources for designing maps? I'm trying to make some homebrew maps for campaigns I'm writing.

I've poked around Inkarnate but I don't actually know where to start in making my places look realistic.

This is the map I drew of the location of the character.
