So in my process of making maps of my world, towns, cities etc, I want to share where I am finding the ideas, and how to create each map. As I am not yet finished with my own maps, I will give a list of websites, programs or apps, as most artists use more than one program to create their maps (or so I have found) I wont be posting pictures for this post. But I will tell you which ones I will be using, and once I am finished each map I will write a process blog with pictures – See this example. (If it costs money I will put $ in front of its name)
Computer Programs:
- $ Photoshop – Number one mentioned program
- Gimp (I use this)
- $ Some form of Tablet – Wacom or Bamboo are often mentioned (I use a Bamboo Tablet)
- $ Artrage (I use this)
- Inkarnate (I use this)
Apps: iPad
- $ Apple Sketch (iPad pro)
- $ Procreate (I use this)
- $ Pixelmator – cheapest Photoshop like app you can find (I use this)
- Photoshop Sketch (I use this)
I will continue to update the list as I find programs. I if you have any recommendations, leave a comment 🙂
