Fantasy worlds and sci-fi starships - 4+ years of collaboration bringing published novels to life through custom cartography
Since April 2021, I've been creating custom maps and illustrations for author Mike Mollman's published works. What began as a single Fiverr commission evolved into an ongoing partnership spanning multiple book series across both fantasy and sci-fi genres.
Mike's projects demand versatility - from ancient druid territories in epic fantasy sagas to technical starship blueprints for sci-fi adventures. Each genre requires completely different aesthetic approaches, making this collaboration especially rewarding and diverse.
All maps are print-optimized at 600 DPI with both color and grayscale versions for professional book production. The collection includes sweeping world maps, detailed regional views, city layouts, and technical schematics - each tailored to enhance the reader's experience without spoiling the narrative.

TA Maps always goes above and beyond on my projects. Each map has unique touches whether it be the compass rose, the border or a host of other details. The quality is consistently top knotch and Theodor regularly communicates over the course of the project. I highly recommend TA Maps.
