Description
So I drew a map of Hyrule as seen in the original The Legend of Zelda from 1986, in my style. First time coloring a map, too.I changed the geography a little and gave many landmarks names, including the dungeons, and tried to make connections between later Zelda games (that came before TLoZ in its timeline) and you might be able to notice a few right off the bat. Every dungeon I used its layout-name (like Level 1 was the Eagle, Level 3 was the Manji, Level 7 was the Demon, etc.), as well.
Hope you like it!

Hey, this is really good work here. I'm a big fan of the first two Zelda games on the NES and I would be interested in seeing what you'd do with the overworld map of Zelda 2.

Thank you!
I actually haven't played Zelda II and to be honest I don't plan on doing so, sorry. I actually only worked on this map because I was replaying the game at the time and wanted to practice my cartography a little more. Cartography is really fun = w=

It's okay. It is a really detailed amp of Hyrule's geography.

You really managed to turn the first game's map into a coherent geography as well as suggesting that it was much bigger than the game might suggest. Great work!
