A map for my worldbuilding project. This is an “eyeball planet” a special type of tidally locked world. 1 is supposed to look like what people living there would use. 2 is just to visualize what direction the winds are blowing. 3 is with major shipping lanes overlayed (I wanted to include them with the first, but left them out because I didn’t like the vibes)

Also thanks to Quanox, Shura, Dazze, Happy skies, @sequentialsnep Gotyoureyes and Remy for contributing one city name each.
