Hey guys -
I've been working on a map of Safeton, the city along the Wild Coast, and I've started a work-in-progress thread at the Cartographer's Guild at
http://forum.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?p=54358#post54358
I began the project by making a "literature search" for lack of a better phrase, to assemble whatever published info I could find about the city.
There have been a couple of sketch maps published over the years - one that I found in FtA, and another published in the late 90s - that I've used to determine the scale and overall layout, but not a whole lot that I've uncovered that describes the features of the city.
The most detailed info that I've come across has been the RPGA "Mysterious Places" article at wizards.com, and I've been using it as a reference to fleshing out the city's districts.
I'm going to depict the city in its "post-wars on the Pomarj frontier" state of affairs, although one of the neat things about digital art is that it would be fairly easy to also produce a version of the city that resembled its pre-war appearance.
I'd love to read feedback about what you think the city might need; please feel free to reply here or via email at nematodegt@gmail.com
Thanks!
