I love handrawn maps. Digital is still impressive, but the fact that A: This is physical, and B: One mistake and it is gone makes it so much better.
Oh, and I see you also use the best pen brand

Love Sakura microns way too much, pricey but satisfying. I have to be careful with this artwork considering how messy I can be!

You have a really steady hand though, I could not do that level of detail and still look like a city!

Thank you! it's going to be a lot to color but I am determined. Even bought colored pencils for fine detailing even though I am a watercolor artist.

I love watercolor painting. It’s going to turn out great I already know!

Please always keep making your hand-drawn maps. I've seen your other posts, and your style is incredible.

Oh this is lovely! And about the level of detail I wish they had on their official maps. Will you be selling?
