I do not think there are any hand drawn maps. From what I can tell, its Adobe fresco with digital watercolor and digital copic pens. Still looks great, but there is a lot of confusion on the process.
That makes sense. The wording made it sound like it was hand drawn on a medium like paper, not a computer. To me, hand drawn implies using physical paper and marking tools. This is digital illustration which implies hand drawn input to a computer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_illustration
It is so massive he has to make affordances Epstein never had to. You can visit Lanai today for example. I took a day trip there a couple years ago. Saw the cat sanctuary. Not much else to do there. There is a little holdover company town inland from the Dole days but I didn't visit that. I'm not sure how much time Ellison even spends there. I get the sense that having these some 3k common folk holdout residents plus visitors makes it a bit less attractive than it might have seemed when he signed his name on 98% of a Hawaiian island. Seems a couple years ago he shifted his primary residency to his mansion near Mar a Lago. Bored of the plaything now, I guess.
Disappointed we aren't shown the actual, physical hand drawn maps.
And the font used seems very familiar so I assume the text was added during the digital manipulation phase?

there's more map than text on that page, so maybe something wrong with your browser
The font on the map, not the web page text.
One of those islands, Lānaʻi, is 98% owned by Larry Ellison
Ni'ihau is also privately owned, and Kauai is also home to a few gigantic personal properties.
I expected a mostly privately owned island to be much smaller than that.
