    Default 3 Maps from Winter and School

    So here's what I've worked on over the break. First, a last minute Christmas present I made for my brother, who is a huge fan of the Redwall series. I based it off this map here and some of the maps from the books (much to my chagrin it seems major landmarks appear to move depending on the book)

    Furthermore, I loved the mountains of Dalanard and used them for this. Wish I could have done it justice.

    My brother added the Abbey himself

    So I can get nervous when classes start, especially when I don't know many people. Also some classes are boring. To distract myself I've been doing these small little things, not sure what to call them. Here's two, I'm currently working on a third. As such, I should state that I really have no idea what I'm doing, and have zero artistic background. If anyone can point my way to how to actually shade things and jazz, that'd be much appreciated.

    I know the feeling... I used to do the sam in class.. except it was some 30 years ago (my god...) as the time passed, I discovered drawing helped me to focus on certain matter in some classes... I hope it’s the same for you ?
    Maps and landscapes are good companion, I find...
    P
    Anyway, your drawings are very good quality and beautiful imagination !
    I wouldn’t know what to add or change... maybe a horizon line on the one with the island ? That would help fixing the whole island in the whole picture, I think !

    Anyway, keep up the good drawings ! Oh ! ... and, of course, listen in class.... and talk to some people from time to time... if necessary !

    That's very nice! I especially like the third one .

    And I did draw in class when I was (a lot) younger too.
