FLYTIP: Care for Cartography

I’m not going to lie, getting this post up was a struggle, but how could I not? This was my suggestion for the FLYTIP posts of the second half of the year and I felt duty bound to post. Plus I love the topic, duh! Who doesn’t want to showcase some beautiful maps? So let me stop dabbling and drabbing and just show you the gorgeous intricacies of the maps! Did I make up a post inspired by my love for Six of Crows?

(Okay one more thing from the annoying person that is me. Why do I love maps? They are not only a unique touch, but also so integral to the world building. If you’re making a fantasy world, you must think about it. How do they get from A to B, does it take days? Is there magic helping? It just seems so elementary and also important. So I place a lot of emphasis on good, detailed, and gorgeous maps. I’m not talking about the maps I made when I was a kid. They get the job done, of course. But I want beautiful maps that make me swoon. Here are some. Also Map Monday on instagram is a thing, so tag me if you do it!).

By the way, all of these photos are from my Instagram, so if you love maps. Let’s be friends there okay?
