    Wip My first maze - The Labryinth of Magic - WIP - Hand drawn

    I loved the idea of a prophecy map from this month's Challenge. This is just for fun, I'm not entering the challenge. I started brainstorming early this morning, and have been working on it most of today. I'm going to attempt to draw a maze! I love mandalas and sketch them quite often, so I'm trying to combine the two into one.

    I pieced together two of the prophecies from the generator and came up with this:

    "In the Labyrinth of Dweomers, when the Jade Gate opens, the Sword of Orbs shall be destroyed."

    I'm thinking of a 5 elements type of scenario, maybe the Magician has to bring 5 elemental items to an altar in order to open the "Jade Gate". I may put the Sword of Orbs in a pylon in the center of the circle. I really like the outline shape so far. I'm thinking this is going to have a stone feel to it, and I will probably add a room of mirrors, some water features, creatures, maybe a huge sacred tree....anyway, just brainstorming still to get a feel for the layout. I need to stretch a bit so I should probably lay the pencil down for now, but this is what I accomplished today. CCW!

    I always love to see a good maze/labyrinth.

    Great! I can't wait to see where you take this - your brainstorming seems promising ^^

    Why don't you enter the challenge, though? Since you now already have something to submit, there's no harm in going for it, right?

    Thank you @Blaidd! I'm really happy with the way this is coming along, I've barely been able to stay away from it! As far as the challenge goes, I don't quite meet the prerequisite. I combined two prophecies in a way that doesn't quite fit the rules that were laid out. I started on this before I got clarification, but I just couldn't bring myself to stop! Thanks for the comment!

    It's looking a-maze-ing. That's some nice hand-lettering, too.
