Hi,

I am using Dungeondraft and Inkarnate regularly, as well as drawing my own maps in a blueprint style with Affinity Designer, and in Pixel art style with Affinity Photo.

I am wondering what is the best way to create realistic isometric and top-down map assets: furniture, walls, characters, varied objects...

Should I make drawn assets in a software like Affinity Photo, or vector assets with Affinity Designer?
Is modeling the props with Blender the best way to get every view possible?
Is a drawing tablet necessary?

I want to reach the next step but I'm not sure about how to get there.
Thanks
