I am an amateur map maker who largely makes maps for his own use in the roleplaying games he runs both face to face and via the roll20 VTT and for his blog which is also based on these role playing games. I started off around a year ago drawing simple maps and plans by way of illustration and whilst I am improving by practice I am looking for hints and tips.

At the moment I am using GIMP 2.8 for all my digital art not just my maps


I would post a link to a couple of my maps on my blog but I am not going to do that until I am sure that is ok with folks here
