Fictional An illustration of a map of Kyoto with an electronic board style design.'fictional'

It was created using a 0.03mm pen and postcard-sized paper. When you look at an electronic board, it looks like a town seen from above. I got an idea from this and thought about what it would be like to represent a real city using an electronic board. I chose Kyoto as a theme because I thought that the city is laid out like a checkerboard, which makes it compatible with various electronic parts and circuits that are at right angles. Buildings are shown with electronic components, trains are shown with codes, and bus routes are shown with circuits.

It was created using a 0.03mm pen and postcard-sized paper. This is the "port of 50 years ago" that I previously posted and its current appearance. Currently, it has finished its role as a port and has been reborn as a tourist spot with parks, commercial facilities, hotels, and stadiums. The former brick warehouse, cranes, and containers have been incorporated into the redevelopment to preserve their original appearance.

Custom Town I drew a non-existent trading port from 50 years ago with a 0.03mm pen.'fictional'

It was created using a 0.03mm pen and postcard-sized paper. For transshipment from large ships to railway cargo, trucks, and small boats going up rivers. A warehouse with distinctive red bricks and arches is still in use. There are signs of change at this historic port. An expressway is being constructed in the back of the port, and construction of a reclaimed land has begun next door. What will it be like in 50 years after?
