Description Another in my series of little maps...

This house and barn sit by a fast flowing river out in the countryside.
Maybe it's on the edge of a town or village, or maybe much further afield.
Perhaps it's the last house on the mountain trail or before the great woods.
I am told that there are chickens wandering around somewhere under the trees by the barn.
And a few ducks might be roaming over on the other side of the river, but they're obscured by trees as well.

Whether gaming or telling a story, have fun imagining new things.
Cheers, J

How long does it take you to do these smaller maps/illustrations anyway?

SirInkman In reply to Ashlerb [2018-05-14 16:12:15 +0000 UTC]

It varies. The pencil drawings can take anywhere from an hour to 3 hours if it's really detailed.
Or if I am having trouble being inspired.
The coloring is usually not too long. Maybe an hour to 3 hours.
They are larger than I am showing here. If i did them smaller they would take less time maybe.

Usually it works like this - i am sitting on my bed listening to music and I'll draw 3 or 4 of these in one evening.
Then later I'll do the color on separate occasions. It's pretty easy and quick, relative to my other maps, which take a lot longer.
