My adventures in Atlanta as I explore the city and post whatever things catch my eye. Expect pictures, random thoughts, and occasional bits of wisdom.

I am an aspiring costume designer currently sewing and crafting for my Etsy shop. Find me at www.etsy.com/shop/greyedout or on Facebook as Greyed Out Productions.

Tried my hand at watercolors yesterday.  For some reason, things clicked and everything worked as intended.  So I put the result up in my Etsy shop.  Don’t forget, I currently have a 20% off sale going on! SAVE20 gets you the discount.   Lately my map of Wilderland from The Hobbit has been getting a lot of attention - I’m open to doing custom maps as well, if anyone is interested.  I’ve actually been considering a map of Westeros done in that same mapping style as my Wilderland map.

That map that I’ve been posting bits and pieces of?  You know, the one of Tolkien’s Wilderland from The Hobbit?  This is the whole thing.  It was *fun* to draw.  I’m really pleased with the way the Misty Mountains turned out.

Mouse Territories of the Northern Reach.  Inspired by David Petersen’s own Mouse Territories map found in the Mouse Guard series.  This measures 11x14”, done on Bristol paper with watercolour pencils, steel nib pens and ink.  I also listed a “custom fantasy map” on my Etsy, Greyed Out, because I like doing them and I feel like everyone should have a map somewhere in their homes.

Progress. I’m working on a map of my own Mouse Territories for a possible Mouse Guard RPG game sometime. The full map measures 11x14 on Bristol paper, stained with coffee. Water is done in watercolor pencils.

I think I want a bigass map of Khador on my wall. I might have to make this happen.
