Map symbols

[XiaoTie]

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone know where I could find a few symbols to use on a map I'm making. The map is a mostly sea/island map, and I can't, no matter where I look (google, deviantart, etc), find symbols of sea-monsters, whales, ships, like those you see on sea charts.

So, does anyone know where I could find some? (I even looke over the threads on this part of the board up to page 5)

I would suggest checking out some of the Wingding/symbol type fonts at one of the various free font sites. Such as DaFont.

The Fantasy Clipart & Fantasy Clipart2 fonts are a couple I have used in the past. They might have something in them

Thanks guys! I think I have found them on the fonts you said and on that part of deviantart

Istarlome Thanks,

Any chance of a photshop version or at least a collection of pngs?

I know some of his packages have png's in them along with the GIMP Brush.

the first ones i did don't have the pngs but i'll add them.

i bought a new computer and i'm moving stuff from the old one to the new one. the old one has some issues and i don't like using it anymore. i

Here are the symbols I'm using for my first map. I modified the compass rose from one found here. The symbols are simple and traditional - generic in fact...

Sometimes simple/generic is all you need.
