Behind The Scenes – Design Legacy

These Design Principles can be seen in The Native Hyborian Maps from Cimmeria & Shem. A feature which I interrupted from Ron Cobbs take on the sword Runes was the idea that The languages of Hyboria are written Vertically, which I then further extrapolated into the Valusian Language designs for The Thurian Age Maps.

The font used In The Native Cimmerian Map [Above] is an In-House recreation of the font used In the film called Cimmerian Kennings and is currently still in development.

This font, as well as other modified ‘Native Hyborian’ fonts will be made available to the public at a later date. The Fonts used in the design of this map set are:

Cimmerian Kennings [Work In Progress]

Like its Cimmerian counterpart, The Native Western Shemite Map [Above] is an extrapolation of the design principles used In the film. The Fonts used in the design of this map set are:

Jerusalem
Kosher [Modified]
