Imaginary Hand Drawn Cities

Recommended Posts

Was not sure if i should put this in the BR Coffee house OR just make a NEW thread ???  Here's a little hobby of mine to draw  cities that do not exist. Street-grids have always looked cool;  City & waterway patterns as well.

Only recently started naming them....

EMERALD ISLE......Sea World/Waterpark still being designed on the bottom right of small island on Top

PALM COAST

OASIS SPRINGS

CORONA  ....putting finishing touches...cat bit into top and side ; had to make those nature preserves LOL

All tied into a sketch  of my imaginary country that  is almost the same size as Montana & Dakota's combined

Thanks for the reply Dan326!  You have a good memory!  lol   Glad you really liked Palm Coast!

Good question.....got to decide whether it's going to be a "coastal"  city  or "inland"/ river city......if there will be any hillshave gotten away from putting Freeways in the middle of the urban-core ; prefer them on the edges....

.Got the idea for Oasis Springs from my kids Sims game ...some Palm Springs desert -flair resort-town built around the centerpiece Oasis

MESA VERDE...plateau on West (left) side; Airport NE corner

FOUNTAINBLEAU ...jagged coastline; experimented with paint for some splotchy water ....some sun light and shadows in the pic; more elevation on bottom of map

TREASURE BAY ....older map;  No kidding my bro-n-laws little boy grabbed a sharpy making  me very nervous ; disaster averted!  Ended up being an "X" marks the spot for the Treasure right in the middle of the bay on tip of tiny island:lol:
