    Default Town by the Lake

    Hey there, this map was more of a test for myself whether I could actually draw with pen and paper rather than just with a tablet where you can correct every mistake you make. I drew this with a bog standard office fine liner (... at work... but don't tell anybody! ) and simply scanned it. Only the labels have been digitally added.

    You are free to use this for your games if you find it useful!

    Nice map, I like the perspective on it. Gives me some ideas for trees and mountains.

    I always like doing hand-drawn maps once in a while, as it really makes you think about all the little details and if you make a mistake, you either ignore it or have to try and make it a part of the work.

    Anyway, nice job on this and trying a tricky perspective with it too!

    Very nice! You're doing way better than me with a true pen&paper!
    Now, I'm wondering if you could add some pretty shading on it ...

    This is a really nice map! So I see some references to the Forgotten Realms in this map. Was it made for that world?
