Tag As FavoriteComment		This is the map of the Kingdoms of Argalath, Derg, and Gelborg, of Elves, Dwarves, and Men. This is the map that goes with the book that I'm writing that I have not yet uploaded. Its where Jeorn and Tamirna live. Its really hard to see the names, my scanner isn't the best, sorry. I had a lot of fun creating my own world and thinking up the names for all the places. I also really enjoyed drawing my little sea serpent and the compass that I created. Enjoy!

Awesome map! This actually looks quite professional. Love the compass, and the obligatory sea serpent. 2
This looks like a wonderfully fun land to explore. The torn edges are classic. You have a fine eye for detail. Great job! I hope to see more maps from you! 2

:-) Lydia Thomas replies: "Wow, thanks a bunch, I really enjoyed drawing this, I'd like the do some other maps of areas in Argalath that have more detail. Maybe you'll acctually be able to read those names. Thank you for commenting."

woow, this must have taken you so much time 0.0 I wanted to draw a map once, but after a few minutes I threw it out of the window -_-"

:-) Lydia Thomas replies: "Lol, well, I drew this during a very boring social dinner that I had to go to with my family. As you might think, I was much more interested in drawing the map than sitting there doing nothing or socializing with related old people (not that they're bad, just boring). Thank you for commenting. "

This is pretty nice. You have all the needed information and such. You might try doing more detail on it and even practice some caligraphy for the names of towns and such. Do some research on geology so you know how mountains and shorelines work (not to mention weather systems and forests). I like the border, very well articulated.

:-) Lydia Thomas replies: "Come on!! Its a fantasy world, I can draw the geography however i want! I don't have to draw it so it works! Thanks for the suggestion though. I actually had this idea in a dream (sounds wierd, but true), and I didn't really think about being correct or anything. Usually I'm in too much of a hurry to finish it to do it really well unless its a special picture that I'm doing for a reason. This one was just on the spur of a moment (more or less anyway) Thank you for commenting."

This is cool. I drew a map of my own magical world Elysia. I ought to add it to my gallery. This is a well drawn map. I like the idea of magical lands. It's very detailed and good.

:-) Lydia Thomas replies: "Thank you!"
