[Award Winner] Hand-Drawn Mapping (for the Artistically Challenged)

[Techpatriot]

lol...this looked like my only hope for a tutorial for selecting medium for a hand drawn map. This is a tutorial for a not hand drawn map made to look hand drawn. We should be saying "hand drawn", lol. I kept waiting for someone to say they actually used a stylus so it was extra authentic.

Ah, you want Delgondahntelius' excellent tutorial here: http://www.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=3013

This is a fantastic tut. My one problem is I can't find the Horizontal brush. I had it on an old computer but cannot find it now.

Edit: Never mind. I'm an idiot.

I'm going to have to try this when it comes time for me to make a pretty version of my map!

Wow, I've been gone for a while and I came back to find out lots of people are finding this helpful. I'm glad, and thanks for posting about it

It's way past current, but for what it's worth (to Techpatriot) the original map was done with a stylus, but I made brushes after for the sake of the tutorial and the sanity of those using it. Drawing each mountain was *tedious* as all get out!

It may be a little out of date but it is still very informative. Thank you!

Thanks for this excellent tutorial, Gidde. I used it to improve the map from my portuguese-written book project (https://oreiadulto.blogspot.com.br/). The map can be seen here.
