So I spent today making a map of the suburbs where my story is going to take place. This is just the first part of it and as I get farther into the series I will expand the map. So here's the first version of it. I'd like to know what you guys think and how realistic you think it is. Bear in mind though, this story is taking place in my world for one of my other projects, but this story/map really isn't real. To put it basically, I'm pretty much writing a book inside of my book which would consequentially be a non-fiction place even though it's a fiction place since it's inside of my fiction world. But in that fiction world, the book is still fiction. So here's the map I'll stop rambling now:
Okay it would only let me upload it as cover art for some reason... So...LOOK ABOVE!
PS: Sorry It's small...
EDIT: YAY! I got it to upload as an attachment! All 11kb of it! And before I couldn't upload for some reason even though it was only 8kb. :/
Oh and sorry I forgot to mention before, the colors:
The brown and lighter brown are the ground/grass and trees, respectively. It's winter, plus the story's post-apocalyptic and it just in general looks better than a vibrant green(easier on the eyes that is). The black are important/city/government buildings and the grey is obviously the streets. The tan is notable barricade, ie a fence . Blue is water and the earthy brown around things is cliff/rocky area/steep hill.
As for the actual layout, the black near the bottom of the image is a church, the two blobs right in the middle(from left to right) are the elementary school and the middle school. No high school yet. That's gonna be a little farther out. The small black building above the middle school is the district offices and then the black blob a little ways above that is the police station. The county, Nakrainia, is quite militaristic and their army and military is almost indistinguishable. Hence it's largeness as a structure. The garage/barracks are above it cut off on this version of the map. Aka, the buildings bigger than what you see. I hope I covered everything background wise.
EDIT 2: The school and the surrounding area are going to be up for some "renovations." I'm not too happy at the moment with the school. I'll edit later when things are ready and updated.
