Work In Progress Domhan Eile: Southern Island

Post image
23 Upvotes

In the latest novel I am writing—which, like my others, is set in Tír Ghlas—the protagonist mysteriously ends up in a parallel world called Domhan Eile (Otherworld). It resembles Tír Ghlas, but instead of being a single island, it is divided into four major islands of various shapes, inhabited not only by ordinary people but also by human-animal hybrids.

This is the southern island; it is essentially a "physical map." I drew it using Sakura Pigma Micron pens and painted it with Gansai Tambi and Rembrandt watercolors.

Discussion Archimedes (a ring extraterestrial world, with a 70° axil tilt)

22 Upvotes

Hello! I’ve been working on a world for a story, a planet called Archimedes, which has a 70-degree axial tilt, a moon (about the size of Pluto), and a ring system. I decided to give it this extreme tilt, but I’ve been struggling to figure out how day/night cycles and seasons would function, which in turn makes it difficult to name locations, weather phenomena, and so on. I had some initial names in mind, like "Sea of ​​Sunset" or "Sea of ​​Sunrise"—classic choices, but I wasn't sure if they would actually make sense given this kind of rotation. Surprisingly, they do—at least near the equator; meanwhile, the regions from the tropics toward the poles experience polar-style winters and summers. any other suggestions?
