Contest $30 Comp - Cartoon Map Image from Real Geography

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Dan Bainbridge, May 5, 2013.

    Hi there,

    I need a cartoon / graphical style "map" making of a real area.

    It will be for a dive website, but also to be used as a real life sign for the wall, or to place on top of a table counter under glass. So the finished file I need in all formats - jpeg, PSD, AI, and EPS.

    The location is south Lombok, Indonesia - most of the section of the south coast. You can see the area on google satellite / maps here:
    https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Mandalika Resort, Pujut Lombok Tengah, Lombok 83111&ie=UTF-8&ei=_CeHUbyZEMmzrAeRxIDACw&ved=0CAsQ_AUoAg
    * grr, I can't get DigitalPoint to display the image - also the link might break so copy and paste manually and paste into a new tab.

    You need to zoom out a few times, and for ease I have taken from this exact map a screenshot and highlighted the area we would like making as a cartoon style map:

    * grr, I can't get DigitalPoint to display the image - also the link might break so copy and paste manually and paste into a new tab.

    Here are another couple of maps of the island - but the whole island, but we would like something of this style - green land, with blue sea, and darker sea out off the land (like it is on google)

    * grr, I can't get DigitalPoint to display the images - also the link might break so copy and paste manually and paste into a new tab.

    Just create a simple map for now, and then to the winner we will ask a little further detail such as putting some town names on the map as Dots and names, and highlighting some key scuba diving areas along the coast.

    Please post your submission directly onto the thread if you can as multiple people need to see this and it makes it easier to manage

    Your last 3 contests ended with people doing work but you not selecting any of them as a winner from the thread.

    That is ironic since you say you picked logos outside the threads in your other contests. Is there any reason people should be confident that if they spend the time and submit that you are likely to pick a winner this time?

    In each of those you said:

    I posted this to your thread instead of a PM since it seems everyone would want to know where you stand before they start working on another of your "contests"

    Thanks, i was about to post this. Well in all three contest all the mates just worked hard and what we got, have taken private submission. So why you created a contest if you are not interested.

    I am interested, I was, I have previously used contests and successfully picked winners maybe 5 or 6 times last year and maybe 10 times total (check my post history if you dont believe me and youll see 90% of my most recent started threads are for graphics/logos contests and I have picked winners previously I think on all but one). From this I do have a few designers on my skype who have previously met me here, and I invited a couple of them to submit creations to these threads (but I want a variety still and multiple submissions - as previously I have personally invited people and NOT taken their work but a new contest winner)... I don't think this is unfair or deviant or anything.. I have taken a new logo as a result of this thread and I will come back here for more work - if you will have me, I didn't mean to cause any upset.
