[unpaid]Fleshing out a very small town.

[theultimateend]

Alright since I totally forgot about this (about to graduate college, been very busy) lets get this underway.

To the north west of the the town is the outcroppings of a large forest that itself stems into an even greater forest that is inhabited largely by elves. Generally speaking very little travel is done through the woods because of predators who have little fear of sentient creatures and for the fact that overgrowth makes the roads that are built unwieldy and essentially a pain in the butt.

Instead a road traveling down and around from the south is primarily used (not sure if its in the image but there is a fork and an unused road leads into the woods). In every other direction is a region known as the great plains. An area that is essentially nothing but long roving planes that change from gold to green depending on the season (not unlike regions in Africa and really anywhere else with plains and grass). There is the occasional tree which really are the only solace any traveler has from what can quite easily be a scorching sun overhead.

The plains themselves aren't very deep while it is seemingly endless rolling hills none of them stand out as exceptionally large compared to their kin. The lake in town bubbles from some unseen source at its base (they are too deep to reasonably swim to the bottom and live).

The farm land is simple crops that are easy to grow and feed the town.

The Island it is on is currently being drawn up and I'll upload it here in a bit once I'm done . Hope this is a little more, I can add as much as people need. Any specifics.

PS. I think I have reverse dollhouse syndrome. I am having troubles putting any real detail on my maps. Mainly because I hate setting anything in stone (sort of pun intended).

Hi, I looked at your sketch and felt reminded of the John Speed style of medieval maps, so I sat down and wipped something up using the John Speed template that came with one of the Campaign Cartographer Annuals (hadn't really used it much, so I thought I'd give it a try).

So besides transcribing your sketch into that template I deserve no artistic praise.

Let me know what you think, though.
