As if this was five years ago now. As one of the first urban maps I made, it's still one of my favourites so far.

I've just been doing some tidying up jobs on it and making some of the text more legible, as well as the imagery clearer. Again, thanks to all the commenters who suggested ideas and really helped bring this to life. I've just had a fresh batch made up here for anyone interested in one.

Apologies if you've seen this elsewhere - this is the most current version with lots of suggestions from other redditors.

I'm making a map of California in a classic fantasy style (sorta Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones). It's going to be filled with real world history and mythology, with the aim of highlighting local landmarks in a fun and educational way. Please ignore how rough parts of it look (text going through hills, rivers, etc), it'll all get cleaned up at the end. Forests will be going on at the end too.

While it's around two thirds done, I'd love to get more places and features in here before I get this made into print. Any more petroglyphs, burial mounds, ruins, forts, battlefields, Civil War heritage, ghost towns or the like that you think should be on here? Anything else is great too - landmarks, natural features, mythological creatures or just anything cool and quirky you think would look good on here. Thanks!

As if this was four years ago now. As one of the first county maps I ever made, it's still one of my favourite maps so far.

As if this was three years ago now. With some of the cool mythology on here, it's one of my favourite maps so far.

I'm hoping you can help fill up this fantasy Lord of the Rings style of the area. Please ignore how rough parts of it look (text going through hills, rivers, etc), it'll all get cleaned up at the end. Forests will be going on at the end too.

Edit: Wow, thanks for all the feedback so far guys - you're awesome! I have to head out, but will be back on later to go through everyone's comments and get your suggestions on the map. Keep em comin!

I've just finished this at last. Almost every historical landmark or bit of local mythology was suggested by a member of the public on FB and Scottish subreddits.

I really couldn't be happier with the level of feedback from everyone! If you think there's anything I've missed out or should change, just let me know - I won't be getting these printed for another day or two, so I can still add in details.

Thank you and I hope you like it. Prints are available here.

Mods: I'm not using this space to advertise - this is part of an ongoing project to map all of the UK in a fun and educational way which highlights hidden history and mythology throughout the country, some of which there are hardly any written records of.

I'm hoping you can help fill up this fantasy style map of Glasgow and the surrounding area. Please ignore how rough parts of it look (text going through hills, rivers, etc), it'll all get tidied up at the end. Forests will be going on at the end too.

While it's around two thirds done, I'd love to get more places and features in here before I call this finished. Any more megaliths, standing stones, barrows, ruins, or the like that you think should be on here? Anything else is great too - landmarks, natural features, mythological sites or just anything cool and quirky which fits the theme. Thank you!

Apologies if you've seen this on FB already - this is the most up to date version.
