When I set out to make this vector topographic map texture pack I thought it would be an easy adventure. Just draw a few maps in a few hours and I'd have an item ready to sell. The reality, however, was much closer to the Odyssey than a short tale of drawing vectors. I decided to against all odds use my mouse to draw all of these vector lines instead of a tablet as I enjoyed the unique forms that using a mouse caused. By the end my elbow hurt from making curious movements with extreme accuracy, I questioned my methods in terms of time efficiency, but the maps look like a beautiful mix of accurate geography and 1960's acid style poster design. Some of these individual maps took over an hour to draw and clean up, so a lot of my time went into making this pack something special that can hopefully bring some magic to whatever you use them on. No maps were injured during the making of this product.
