A long time ago (maybe 2019?) I created a bunch of village maps using some historical villages surrounding 17th century London (I think). I found them online. I eventually decided I didn't like the maps I used, they had no style, they were just black and white line-drawing and it didn't have enough contrast to really work for me. At some point I must have deleted them from the site because I can't find them online any more but I had copies on my hard drive.
Now fast forward to 2025 and I was playing around with AI and playing with prompts and came up with some village maps I liked a lot more. I found the AI doesn't make good English or German villages or towns for some reason but if you tell it Greek, or Italian, Carthaginian I started seeing a lot of stuff I liked.
I used isometric as one of the commands which produces villages with roads in the village that aren't always really visible, and it tended to be a bit repetitive, but I liked the results.
When done I'll bundle them all into a single pdf. Until then I'll publish them on this site... Here is an example of the old style map.
