Trek Fan Mapping: Five Projects Now

Works in progress, all, uploaded to DeviantArt a night or two ago: https://www.deviantart.com/dewline-ottawa/art/Dominion-War-Base-Map-28-March-2025-1176423191 https://www.deviantart.com/dewline-ottawa/art/Coreward-From-the-Izar-Zakdorn-Line-28-Mar-2025-1176427032 https://www.deviantart.com/dewline-ottawa/art/Taurus-Reach-And-Beyond-28-Mar-2025-A-1176436890 https://www.deviantart.com/dewline-ottawa/art/Edge-of-Midnight-Disputed-Zone-28-Mar-2025-A-1176439292 https://www.deviantart.com/dewline-ottawa/art/RomulanZoneBaseMap-28Mar2025-A-1176456387

Edge of Midnight Base Map - A Work in Progress

I've been working on this for fun, for mental health, for skills retention and development. It's inspired by Star Trek: Star Charts and Stellar Cartography, of course, and ties into a work of fan fiction as historical textbook: The Edge of Midnight - A Narrative of the Federation-Klingon Cold War (2256-2293). There are some *ahem* deviations from the work in those first two volumes, some of them per the text of Seamus Devenish, others via the out-of-print FASA-published Star Trek Role-Playing Game product line. Where not confirmed by Star Charts and Stellar Cartography, or stated in the text of The Edge of Midnight, the choice of host stars for many planets is mine, with no small additional input from Jed Whitten's HYGMap website and Kevin Jardine at GalaxyMap.org.

I do expect that CBS/Paramount and their Star Trek production partners retain the right to ignore any or all of this material as it suits them.

Again, this is a work in progress. If you have informed opinions on how I might fill in the remaining gaps, feel free to comment. I won't promise to either heed or ignore you.

Map Galleries Volume 2

So, I found a few more maps of interest to me, thanks to help from quite a few other people on Flickr...

Repairs and Renovations Notice 2020-1

Okay, I just found out now. (Yes, just now!) I can't set up publicly accessible Google Photos galleries the way I used to with G+. That's been taken away from us users as of when G+ became a paid-only option.

As a temporary fix, I'm setting up links with this posting.

An experiment in fiction-mapping

Been thinking of the work done by Keith Giffen, and Tom and Mary Bierbaum on the Legion of Super-Heroes of late...and teaching myself how to use Adobe Illustrator as well. So...
