Description
This enormous poster map was commissioned to support a Kickstarter. It's the largest map I've drawn in a long time, and took absolutely ages to complete. Worth it though for the final print -- it looks ace. The final image is many times larger than the image posted here.Copyright © Paradigm Concepts, 2015

Fantastic! is the full size version posted somewhere? You mentioned a kickstarter, did that project go forward? Based on this map alone I would be interested in checking it out.
Cheers.

There is a full-sized one in the book it was drawn for. I'd check paradigmconcepts.com/ for more.

Brilliant! Well done!
As a fellow cartographer, how long did this one take to finish?
And if you don't mind me asking, what resolution was the full size map?

Ah, this one took bloody ages. There's no point mincing words. I'm not sure of the exact time, but certainly several months, though I did complete a few small jobs during the process. The final res... Good question, I'll check...
11200x7600, it seems.
Pretty bloody massive.
Anyway, glad you like it.

Yeah, it was a much larger project that I initially envisioned it. Nevertheless, worth it.

This is awesome! I have a soft spot for city maps, but tend to be a bit picky: I can't see anything that hasn't been done brilliantly in this, though.

Thanks very much. The full-sized map looks, I think, much, much better. So many details. As I briefly mentioned in the description, this is the biggest job I've ever completed, for all, size-wise, it's not the largest map I've completed in terms of actual surface area.

I can believe how long this would take to make. It looks like a map that I could pore over for hours.

There are absolutely tons of tiny details on it. Hmm... Makes me think a few snapshots of some of that detail may be worth a quick share for people to see...

Ah, missed this reply. I'll see about grabbing a few snapshots soon. Sorry for the delay.
