Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-37523810-20190401215659

Hello, everyone!

I wasn’t really sure how to go about looking for some help with this, so I’ve decided to just ask in the General Discussion and hope for some feedback.

I’ve been planning this for a while, ever since I started my RP (Conversion in Zipangu). It really just started out with the region of Zipangu, where this idea of wanting to map out the whole island sort of began to formulate in my head. I eventually decided to go with it, and used the country of Japan as the basic geography. I then used Japan’s regions and renamed the provinces to become Zipangu’s “subregions” per se.



After stepping back and taking in the map, I came to realize that there wasn’t any official map for any of the areas within the MGE lore. After searching for other unofficial maps of the MGE Universe, I didn’t find too many that would suit as a good foundation to build upon based on how my depiction of Zipangu appears.

At some point, I might continue to build upon the actual cartography of the MGE world. For now, however, I will stick with creating my unofficial version of the mystical land of Yokai.

However, it has come to my attention that I cannot conquer this feat alone. Trying to add detail to each and every subregion that I’ve created will take months, perhaps even years, if I commit to this by myself.

So, to sum it all up, I ask that you, the community of this Wikia (no, I will not submit to the Fandom name change!) consider pitching in and submitting ideas and rough drafts of maps and names of towns, villages, and natural landscapes (subregions have already been named, as my current map shows).

If you have any experience with cartography or mapping, I especially welcome you. Even if you have little to no experience with creating maps, you can still help out. This community is so creative, both artistically and imaginatively. There is nothing we can’t do if we all put our minds to it.

Thank you all!
