Thread: Asgard in Conan's Hyboria

    Map Asgard in Conan's Hyboria

    Long time listener, first time poster.

    Here's an amateur's (that'd be me) take on crafting a regional map for the Asgard and Hyperborea region of R.E. Howard's Hyboria. I normally pillage the net (including this awesome site) for maps, but couldn't find any that fit that area so was forced to do my own (such as it is). Posting it here in case someone else can use it.

    If any of you feel like tweaking it or improving it, I'd be very grateful!

    Cheers,
    D

    I like the stylized look and almost "cut paper" feel to it.

    Nice job!

    Thanks fellas! Looking at it now, after a night's rest, I don't like the jarring, giant black dots I used for the settlements. Because I'm a newb, however, I didn't make those edits in layers - nonetheless, I think I'll go back and try to replace them with something less, ah, hurtful on the eyes.

    Cheers,

    I actually like the use of those dots; they seem to go rather well with the feel of the rest of the map...

    A very evocative map.
