Any chance you could add the link? I can't find this anywhere on the site.

The message with the link in it should be just above your message.

Thanks!

There's a spelling error on that map, though. It's "Coercri" not "Coerci".

It's not the final map, there's a version 2.5 or something if you scan forward.

[thewormoftheworld'send]

Nm, version 2.5 has the same misspellings, coerci and colosus. Still, beautiful job. 2.5 added the large lake in the middle of the Center Plains and some other new features that I can't quite detect with my poor eyes.

I didn't know that stuff was here...some of that work is spec-damn-tacular.

Such as the spelling of Grimmedhore Forrest (Gump?) in the Land map?

[Blackhawk]

Actually i did start a world map. I got as far as the lands continent..basically i dropped the map i made and started surrounding it with other territory, I didnt like it ... plus i had very little information to go on.. i think there are 4-5 continents shown in the books maps... the land, Elemnesdine, Brathiarain harbor, and i beleive the isle of the one tree..but could be wrong on that.

I may eventually get back to it, but theres really too little info to go by to create a passable version.. all the other continents would be completely made up... best i could do for the giants homeland would be salt tooth, and a view of the coastline.

stil trying to make revisions on Seareach for now..

[thewormoftheworld'send]

I've been to the Seareach site before. Very lovely work!

(A minor gripe that extends to all Donaldson artists - I see very little work done in the action genre, there are mainly, like 99.9%, landscapes and poses.)

action? you mean Haruchai fighting Urviles and Lords Fighting with Lords fire etc? im working on that... I was going to try the scene where haruchai and Lord Hyrim were assaulting Kinslaughterer as he was making a tsunami with the illearth chip, i just need to win the Lotto so i can devote more time to artwork

If I had pursued such things I'm sure I would be doing the same. I used to draw, and in fact I sketched Nom when I was a teen. (I also, by the way, sketched a map of John Norman's Gor.) I must say my Nom did not have the same kind of head, mine was basically an elongated shape, like a battering ram, but that's how I understood Donaldson's description. I'm not sure where other artists get the pointed, pyramid-shaped nose feature on the face. The most difficult aspect of Nom for me to sketch was the bird-like legs. I never developed the skill to create an action scene.

I don't know if anyone else found this - but I found Karen von Winstad's Atlas of the Land somewhat uninspired. It's good from a factual/technical point of view, but somehow it seemed to lack 'heart'. Did anyone else notice this.

[Hashi Lebwohl]

How does one put "heart" into a map?

Hmm, it's not terribly colorful, if that's what you mean.

Yes - I think you may have nailed it there WOTWE!

[Barnetto]

True, but it did help me visualise some of the places much more clearly than I could from the text - such as Bhrathrair.

And it helpfully has a location timeline too.

[AMOK]

What would be great would be if Google Earth had the Land as an option, like it has for the Moon and Mars.

[Falconer Winterleaf]

People can make their own worlds for Google Earth. I'm sure a group of people who have some brains and the colection of books and this atlas, could make their own map for Earth.

Which would probably be very helpful to those of us who visualize things.
