Working on a cover of the GURPS Infinite Worlds setting "Bismarck-3," which was featured in the last issue of Pyramid Magazine and imo is one of the more, I guess, restrained Infinite Worlds settings (as far as history goes, anyway; there's apparently a lot more Pulp Adventure potential in Africa and Asia than IOTL). Diverging with a North German defeat in the Austro-Prussian War, this world features (per the article) a substantially stronger Bonapartist France, a similarly un-humiliated Russia (no Russo-Japanese War ITTL), and Britain deciding to take Rhodes instead of Cyprus in 1878 as a consequence of the stronger French presence in Egypt even at the time.
The elements I've added to/extrapolated from the setting are the greater British interest in Central Africa, Napoleon III's Kingdom of the Arabs, a very non-Westphalian Korea begrudgingly shared by Russia and Japan, and a different Spanish-American War that ends with Cuba's and the Philippines' statuses switched from OTL.
I was apprehensive about posting an update without anybody else replying first, but it's been a few days.
The massive Newfoundland is inspired by the 2016-2017 TL The Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies, and Canada's alternate prairie provinces are based on an OTL plan by Sir Rodmond Roblin, Premier of Manitoba from 1900 to 1915.

Currently working on something inspired by watching too many god-awful kids movies. If anyone can guess what this is based on, I'll send you my left kidney.

@FancyHat said god-awful kids movies, so probably not considering that it seems pretty good from what I've seen of it.Avatar: The Last Airbender?

Great style! My only advice would be to perhaps make the sea less colorful. It looks like you're using an older style for your map, older maps oftentimes only used very little or no ink to color water, as ink is expensive and pretty much unnecessary. Perhaps a ripple-like effect like on this map would look pretty cool on your map too.JPEG'd snippet of my work-in-progress ATL map, picked it back up after taking a break for a while.
Hi, well, I'm making a diagram of the Solar System (yes, one more of these, I know) showing all the worlds considered planets under the geophysical definition, and I wanted to show the little I did so far and wanted to ask you guys about three things: do you guys think the scale of the bodies I'm using is adequate? What information will be useful to include in the worlds descriptions in addition to what I have provided? And, any tips to make the planets' textures in pixel art less "lifeless"?
