I'm bored. When I get bored I sometimes draw maps and other related type things. I'm not talking about fancy 3-D computer type maps, I'm talking about old-school pencil and graph paper type maps.
The reason I'm telling you all this is that I have decided to take requests. I'll draw you a map, you specify what you want and how you want it what kind of paper, etc... and I'll try to come up with something. Then I'll scan it an send it to you (or mail it to you if you prefer). It doesn't cost you anything so make a bored college kid not-so-bored for a few hours.
I'm can't guarantee that if you post your request here I'll read it in a timely fashion so email your requests to me at bri_b0@lycos.com
If you want to see a few samples (more will be uploaded when I get a chance to go retreive them), go here:

I was a little confused, I didn't recall sending this post. Then I realized this was not mine (I'm blacxthornE, not Delimbor!).
The Avatar just makes you assume...
Those maps are called overland maps, if you'd like ta know.

and BlindGuardian: I think I remember you from some resources you sent. Whatever, these works are really impressive. A lot of work. Should be tiring. Congrats.

I do alot of overland maps when I get bored. One in particular, The Land of Tulgey. Ranging from the Tulgey Mtns, the Tulgey Woods, the Wabe, Gyreland....

I enjoy making maps of continents, nations, etc.

But maps of cities...

It's something I need to work on.

I'm not very good at putting my ideas on paper, be they maps, storylines, or anything else :( . What kind of things would you need to know to do the maps?

So far I'm planning on starting with an island, so a port city will be a must. I still have to think about what else I want as this will be my first attempt at running a game. I still have to learn all the rules :o , but I always plan abnormally far ahead :D, I'm no good with short-term planning.

:wacko: Hi all. Sorry I was nonresponsive. I am just recently back from a too-long DnD hiatus and have just started visiting the site again. I regret to inform you all that since I am no longer a bored college student (now I am a full time work-monkey) I will not be making maps on request. I would be happy to help if anyone needs ideas or suggestions. I may even have samples to offer. Feel free to get ahold of me if you want.

When im bored, I do quite similarly maps of detailed areas ie; cities, dungeons, castles, but nothing on that sort of scale. 'Side from the world map they are on, of course. Good works, and would post mine but cannot be bothered.

Welcome Back, BG! I know what it's liek to be a work monkey, so don't worry. It will get better. Once you finally realize that everytime someone yells at you, it's actually funny because they are the only one that actually cares, it will get a LOT better. Apathy is the mother of happiness when it comes to work. :D

Btw, thsi is my first time seeing those maps, and I must say, good job! I just recently completed roughly 50% of a temple map (I still have half the 2nd floor, the roof, and the basement to finish), so I realize how much effort goes into those.
