Welcome to the TTRPG/DND/D&D/Fantasy Map Makers Community!
We're thrilled to have you here! This community is all about the art and craft of creating TTRPG maps. Whether you're a seasoned cartographer or just beginning, this is the perfect place to delve into the world of map making. Here, we exchange knowledge, seek advice, explore techniques, and bring our imaginary worlds to life.
Our Main Focus: Map Making Discussions
Primarily, our community thrives on open discussions about all aspects of map-making. Topics can range from tools, techniques, and asset sharing to queries about scaling and more. This open forum is where we share knowledge, learn from one another, and celebrate the process of map creation.
Other Acceptable Posts Include:
Map Making Prompts: Feel free to post prompts that others can interpret through their unique artistic perspectives. Create maps inspired by these prompts and share your process!
User Requests: If you have a specific idea for a map but lack the skills to bring it to life, you can post your request here. Our talented community of artists may choose to fulfill them. Remember, this isn't a place for paid requests, and we reserve the right to revisit this policy if the number of requests becomes overwhelming.
Artist's 'Make a Request' Posts: Artists in our community can start a thread inviting others to make requests, which they can then attempt to fulfill. This keeps the requests contained and easy to follow. This section also doesn't cater to paid services, and the policy may change in the future.
Rules:
We're here to foster a collaborative environment where map makers can learn from each other and improve their skills. This community is about celebrating the process of map creation and exploring innovative ways to illustrate adventures. While sharing completed maps is not our primary goal, feel free to join [email protected] to showcase your completed creations.

Cross-posting this, as I figure this brush set would be a great resource for map makers here in case they weren't aware. :)
Link to the brush downloads and more info about Ogilby maps.
Very neat. So are the brushes to make the roads?
I always wanted to base a campaign around traveling back and forth along single road or river.
There’s a lot of different stuff in the brush set - I think they’d be good for general fantasy map making, not just in this style. There’s town and cathedrals, forests, hills, compass roses, and so forth.
And yeah I think the Ogilby style of maps would be perfect for that kind of campaign.
