Designing a real-world map in the style of World of Warcraft is something fans love. Recently, the player Nomadichedgehog completed a grand one, he drew a map of warcraft in five European countries, which is quite restorative.
Sweden and the Netherlands:
The five countries are Italy, Sweden, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and Denmark, the latter two of which were recently completed. These maps are like paintings on yellowed parchment, which is very magical.
Italy and England:
Denmark:
There are some sites online where antique maps are made online, but Nomadichedgehog takes advantage of just Photoshop software, his drawing board, and a lot of time and patience.
The six maps are divided into English versions and local language versions, and many cities and landmarks are extracted from the material of the Warcraft map, and the details are quite well-defined.
Nomadichedgehog's work is very popular in the community, with more than 100 comments per post and some people asking if prints of the maps could be bought. His next job was to map Germany, with the ultimate goal of mapping all of Europe.
In addition to Nomadichedgehog, there are many artists in the community who are doing similar work, and Conservation OfWumbo is making maps of the 50 states; Spoon once made an out-of-the-country style map of England; Winston-91 made a Dutch one...
World of Warcraft will officially announce its next expansion pack in April, and they still have plenty of time before 10.0 arrives.
