Started off drawing while waiting in queue to play games with friends. Ended up refining them as a set afterwards as a side project. City aerial drawings have been an enjoyable past-time of mine, since the days of Metropolis, and am excited I get to continue the fun through fantastical worlds as well!
This is an ongoing series and I will be adding more sketches as new maps come out.
Drawn from scratch with fountain pen ink on white dot grid paper.

The Range, Venice
Because I sketched them initially in my sketchbook over the centre crease, I ended up with a broken up image. However, as with my previous aerial drawings, I like the aesthetic of a split image (no pun intended). Here is the Split map framed, just for fun.
