I've recently bought a book with historical maps and I wanted to try to make a map inspired by a 16th century map of the Indian Ocean by Mercator.
It's a small map, since it's just an exercise. I've got the ocean & the rivers. Next up are the mountains, then the towns, the placenames and the raster lines.
