I remember this from a while back, and for some reason it died out. Basically post any images you find inspiring or think would be interesting to map/play. For example buildings, architecture, nature, locations, textures etc and any new techniques or methods you've used and want to share.
I'll try and get it started.

We need more train maps.

That's a tube station in the UK surprisingly. It feels more like stepping onto a spaceship.

With some adjusting this pic can be a nice map.

Agreed, i've been there and when you get off the tube it's like you're entering a sci-fi film.

I should not have been watching this thread. Now my large cirt with monorail will never be finished.
Especially the train pictures gave me a shitload of inspiration
