    Wip April Challenge Entry: Triqua Under-Ocean

    Hello all,

    I haven't been a member of the guild for very long, but I hope this entry for the current challenge is accepted without too many giggles and guffaws. I'll actually be a bit surprised if I even finish it, but I felt I had to at least try.

    Anyways, below is a very rough concept sketch for my entry. Please keep in mind that most of this will be changed and the final version won't be remotely like this. To begin with I plan on have three 'bores' connecting the 'under-ocean' to the surface seas of Triqua, but I only plan on mapping the area around one of the 'bores'.

    This is a simple map I have done to show the artificial nature of Triqua's surface features. The back-story is that in ages past an unknown alien race dug through the planet's hard outer crust to get to the 'sub-terranean' aquifier. They have since left, but the planet now is capable of supporting life in the lowlands.

    Interesting, look forward to seeing how you develop this.

    Very interesting concept.

    Even if I am correct, I would still advise you to follow your heart. This whole Cartographers Guild thing, it seems to me, is more about passion and skill and learning new techniques than it is about definitions and rules.
