I’ve been banging out star system maps to fill out a bunch of locations for a Wargaming Campaign. So far I’ve got my cluster level map, and a couple individual system maps with more on the way.

this project has really led me to appreciate the vast number of different styles out there for mapping star systems. So I wanted to come on here and start a thread where everyone can just share the scifi maps they have been working on. Both to gather inspiration for my own maps and for others to learn new tips and tricks.

I love the Mike Schley style. I applaud you for taking the time to manually throw down all your symbols on the Mike Schley export. I’m definitely going to take your techniques into consideration for the future.

When I did my recent FT3 export for a fantasy world. I exported my contours based off the climate. Then copied everything layer by layer into a 13th Age style map converting each contour into the appropriate 13th age terrain fill for that climate. Probably was overkill, but I’m not upset how it came out for my first attempt at a map that size.
