I love hearing what movies or books inspired writers to write their own stories. It’s so fun to see one person’s story inspire another story that possibly will inspire yet another person’s story. XD

It’s really cool how you were able to take all of your favorite things about stories and make them into your own story.

Have you ever…[Read more]

@faith-q

Ah, yes, I understand. Honestly, I don’t really use maps. The places in my worlds pop into existence as I need them. It’s probably not the best way to make geological decisions, but it’s what I’ve done so far. 😉 I’m totally going to check out that website @daisy-torres mentioned though… it sounds awesome!!!

@akbaer, fancy seeing you around here. 😉 Let me tag some people to come say ‘ello.

Hey, I hope you don’t mind me popping in here!! Drawing maps is one of my favorite things to do, and I had to throw in a recommendation for How to Draw Fantasy Art and RPG Maps: Step by Step Cartography for Gamers and Fans by Jared Blando. It’s an amazing book on map-making, and great for inspiration!! I’d really recommend you get it f…[Read more]

@faith-q honestly I’m not a great artist, but the others have given good advice. There’s also a website (and a free version) called Inkarnate and it is awesome, but I still have yet to make a map Of Cirque and A’Grend I’m really proud of.

@faith-q

well, those days are good too… and then filling in the backstory. I love the daydreaming days as much as planning tbh.

probably because my story sorta requires mysterious countries and unknown peoples, because the biggest country (empire, really) has driven out all other people, so the trade routes are very small and selective and not…[Read more]

@faith-q

Sorry, I didn’t copy my reply so I forgot some of it, but this is more or less what I was saying:

I only do maps on paper, and I enjoy it, even if they’re cringy and look like a 7 yr old drew them.

I look at maps from stories I like, or even real life, and try to see how the position of the country affects the others. Questions I ask…[Read more]

@faith-q Absolutely!! Glad to help!

@faith-q Well, I’ve handdrawn really bad maps before…just to get an idea of what direction my characters are going. But yeah, there are online map-makers that you can use.

@faith-q Personally, I cheat and use map generators like this: https://azgaar.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/

(Although that’s rare, as I normally don’t make maps XD I, too, am a pantser…)
