For big projects, that is.

Be it writing, cartography, some other form of art - post here snippets or screenshots of your work and generally just talk about where you are at.

I am working on my first "novel", which has the working title "Red Alps". It is based on this map of mine and I have the rough story line ready, though I suffer from writer's block currently.

Theoretically I could post some of the notes I made, probably will later this evening.

Paris, France, December 1 – Gen. Eisenhower today denied German reports that Allied bombers had dropped chemical weapons on the city of Marburg, Germany.
German radio has announced the evacuation of the city, due to fears of poison gas...

That looks really cool, wanna see more of both products. Do you use Inkscape? Do you make your own maps or use stuff from Wikimedia?

I just had an erection watching this.

I use only Inkscape. Some kind people give me Gimp and Paint Shop Pro tips, but i can't manage to use them.

For the flags, depends. If i found something useful i take, but i most usually draw myself the maps.

Well I haven't had a whole lot of time to work on maps lately sadly.

What I have been working on is trying to improve my bass playing, building a series of cigar box instruments and making some drinking glasses for my best friend who just bought an apartment.
 
Nice idea for a thread!

I'm halfway through Chapter 5 of this- will start posting them soon...

Concept Map for a StonePunk. The real one, should I choose to make it, will actually show effort. I don't know if I will have time though, considering I'm going to college tomorrow, which is why I'm just posting this crappy concept art.

Shit, 1000th post. Woops.

Im working on a Future History Thread about a Second US Civil War in the 2040's, a story where a secret agent from a Super British Empire runs around a dinosaur ridden Australia with an Irish rebel and about 5 other TL's.
