Map map map

So I've been fooling around with how to draw my map accurately for a while - dealing with standard projection issues and all of that. Yassen helped a lot with resizing a map to fit my planet (currently Aphrodite, since it's almost exactly the same size as Venus). Here's pictures of my current solution!






The notion is that I'll have these in a column, and then have 12 columns of them. And if I'm feeling super cool after I've drawn the map out (I think by hand on printed grids) then I can tape each segment to the next and create a rough approximation of a globe.

And now you know the sort of things I do when I'm not writing. Fun, right? Definitely.
