Wonderful project! It's amazing how much details you manage to show on these tiny maps. The whole layout looks very cool.

Thank you! I'm a stickler for detail. At some point the thought of getting a magnifying glass crossed my mind so that I could fit more detail in, but I will leave that for the future.
All the best with your Mapvember project! I'm looking forward to seeing your creations.
I started working on building the world of my 4th story. The other 3 I haven't written yet but I do have extensive notes on each of them. In short, the 4th story came into being because I decided to explore the world of the 2nd story (a vampire story) through a series of short story. The 4th story is about dragons and I seem to find a place for all the maps I have drawn thus far. Anyway, the initial setting of story no. 4 is an archipelago. I wanted to do it in a different style as I still have to identify places of interest -- enough for an isometric feature map. So, I decided to go with a top down map style.
Please critique my map especially the style of the mountain which I think still has too many lines. The maps will be grey scale (india ink wash) as I'm focusing on the basics for now. I will move on to colour and colour theory at a later date.
This particular map is 1 sq. inch and coloured with grey markers.

Following are my first two dungeon maps ever made. They were made in preparation for the Dec '21 - Feb '22 Lite Challenge. I am still to decide whether I will make a village or a dungeon. Anyhoo, I thought I'd share my first two dungeons. These are photos. I need to learn how to remove the unused dots from the page. The dungeons were inked with a dip pen.
