Thread: Please help me make my 5e world map look prettier.

  1. #1

    Post Please help me make my 5e world map look prettier.

    Description:
    A fantasy map for personal DnD use. I'm only looking for one map right now. I don't need it anytime soon. I'm hoping for something cool just to use as a world map for my DnD games.

    Concept:
    It's a large continent, surrounded by ocean and it has several biomes and land features such as hills and mountain ranges. Roads and rivers run throughout. I have attached two reference maps below, one with roads the other without.
    The world the continent sits on is Earth-sized and sits in the northern hemisphere. The northeasternmost portion sits in something of a taiga zone. I tried to include a map scale on the "roads" map.

    Style:
    I'm hoping for something of this style, with heraldry for all the countries, I'll be willing to share details on I imagine each kingdom is like and what I've written for the world so far.(It's fairly horrible if I'm being honest but it's got the players excited so I guess I'm doing something right there?)

    Quality and Size
    I'd like professional, but I'm very open to semiprofessional too.
    While I would like to print it and frame it on my wall I primarily use web apps to run my games.

    Ownership
    As for ownership, the artist would retain full copyright. I would only request reproduction rights to the extent that I can use it for myself. I also understand as this would be unpaid it would be beyond silly of me to ask for ownership.

    I was unsure where the mountains or hills were, so I didn't add that yet.
