    Post May/June Lite Entry: Ivujuvik

    ...yeah. Inspired by Manfred Mann's The Mighty Quinn. Inhabited by people based on the Aleut ethnic group (a group of Eskimos that originally lived on the Aleutian Islands of Alaska), with obvious elements of Kwakiutl/Native Pacific Northwester culture incorporated. No labels or anything, the map is too crowded as it is. Not sure if this will be my final entry or just a rough draft for a computer-drawn map.

    Wow, this is a great hand-drawn map. I especially love the native art elements, which add a lot to the feel of the map.

    I only have one critique, which is the large township is a little hard on the eyes. The sketch style looks nice on the others, but the densely packed houses in that particular part make it a little dark and confusing IMO.

    But such a pretty map.
