how bad is this. btw i made it
Good job! Looks nice.
>>767768855
Looks really good OP!
>>767768855
Looks like shit, kys
>>767768855
What's it for? An rpg?
What is this for? Your Dungeons and Dragons group or your fantasy novels?
>>767768855
Looks pretty decent actually!
Do you use a software or is this all by hand?
>>767768855
Pretty fucking terrible my autistic 1st grade cousin could have done a better job...why would you show this to other people? Do you enjoy being laughed at?
>>767768855
is dat yor anuses?
>>767770727
>>767770778
>>767770484
Don't mind the trolls, interested in hearing about it OP.
>>767768855
pretty decent, 7/10
also, nice double dubs
What do you think of mine?
>>767768855
Not sure if Corna or Delten are supposed to be deserts, but there's thing thing called Rain Shadow. It basically means that on the other side of the mountains, there's deserts. So Delten would be green, and the forest behind the mountains would be desert. Or maybe the islands too small, or maybe it rains upwards in your fantasy land. IDK. I do like it though. Looks neat.
>>767768855
Checked. But what is it? D&D?
Spent more time on the coast lines especially on the smaller islands. Also I wouldn't recommend Inkarnate for the type of map you're making. It doesn't really work well for making larger maps. Basically everything outside of "zone" style maps. It works really well for maps like pic related, smaller but more detailed.
Also for other anons here is the tool OP used.
https://inkarnate.com/
If done by hand, well done.
If software assisted, not bad anyway
Messed up with levels in PS btw
>>767771048
You can see the effect really well on this pic from the space station of when California was on fire again. Salton sea is the lake.
>>767771048
I mean if you want to get specific the tectonics on that map would be rubbish too.
>>767771048
>>767771382
Two big reasons why I said the map is shit and OP should kill himself
>>767768855
Add more detail, stretch and pinch it a bit, and for the love of god, either make the left island look less like Australia or make it painfully Australian.
>>767771455
Well you haven't mentioned it before in your post, so you need to shut your mouth
Gonna post a few more examples of Inkarnate maps, some I've mad myself others saved from threads on /tg/.
>>767771251
The island in the OP is small enough for westward clouds to effect delten
>>767771078
An updated version of the same map.
>>767771687
What do you do with these?
>>767768855
>DELTEN
DELET THIS
>>767771543
>>767771559
>>767771818
I was 90% certain thats what it said too
>>767770869
Sometimes the trolls are right and this is a perfect example of them being so. This "map" or whatever it's supposed to be is garbage.
>>767771718
Use them for DnD. I usually give my players the option of obtaining one at the start of them entering an area. It helps a lot with the immersion and for you as a DM to keep track of the environment you're creating.
>>767771972
lol you're acting like you saw this in a fantasy book or is the map in your epic RPG. dude OP just made a quick map, chill. you don't call your child's first drawing garbage (even though it most definitely is). but they're trying, so you put it on the fridge and say good job.
>>767768855
>Lost Isles
how are they lost if they're on the map?
also, why is one Island named in Greek?
>>767772012
where do you get the graphics for the little towns?
>>767768855
It looks pretty good, are you a GM by any chance?
>>767772116
As a first map it's not bad, but it's not good either given how easy Inkarnate is to use.
>>767772392
Both me and OP uses this site. It's really easy to use.

>>767772566
cool thanks
>>767771687
not a super huge fan of the dual cities on the bridge. It looks cool but when you're setting up a world with a purpose cities that close don't really have one especially for something like a d&d setting.
>>767768855
Pretty good by my standards, why no settlements/structures though?
Haven't decided if I'm done yet. Suggestions and criticism?
>>767771599
Figured as much. Good shit tho.
>>767772809
Great anon! May try some mountains or maybe a small volcano range to the south towards the opening of the channel. I feel like with the mountains you have placed it could be part of a tectonic plate meeting and could raise some volcanoes to spice things up.
>>767772809
This looks like my toilet bowl after I've taken a good shit.
>>767772809
this almost looks like a crater formation, but one side got scrunched with the other.
if both islands were farther apart in a more circular shape, it would look more natural. but you probably weren't creating it as a crater to begin with.
>>767772737
This is usually true, but if you're playing a very diplomatic game it could make things interesting if you were an emissary or ambassador for the cities which after coming to terms could present a greater threat to the all people of the continent. Idk
>>767772116
Shit analogy faggot, I dont know this guy so there's absolutely no need for me to be reserved in my judgement of his shitty map, where as if it were my kids then I would. It looks shit, even for a first attempt, unnatural looking island formations with little to nothing on them, shitty looking rivers with no thought to how a river naturally curves, it just looks crap
>>767772566
do you need to pay for this? Cant find a sign up or a download section
>>767772737
The idea is that they are two merchant cities, fiercely independent, with their own mayors and semi-democratic local government (think merchant towns in HRE). They see each other as competition and have a deep-seated rivalry. They are still vassals of the Count of Negür, located at Greifsburg. A conservative nobleman with his power base firmly placed in the rural aristocracy, who is deeply suspicious of the growing power of the urban burghers.
The idea is to use it as a plothook for the players. They can either side with the Count, exploiting the rivalry to bring them back into the Counts control more firmly, or side with the cities, mending the rivalry and freeing them further from the Count, maybe even establishing something akin to the Hanseatic League. It's a classic "old" ways versus "new" way scenario. The bridge is their to give the players a true wonder. A monument to the power and wealth of the cities and what the ultimately could become if freed from their backwater overlord.
It worked great in-game.
>>767773613
you're just being nasty to be nasty. did mommy burn your tendies tonight?
>>767773655
Anon, I...
>>767773056
Actually i might do that, and have a closer town be devastated by it, and the surviviors would have moved down to the coast.
>>767773154
Thanks for fulfilling the expectation.
>>767773212
Yeah, I just kinda went with the "what is geography approach". The islands are supposed to be natural, but I have no explanation as to why there's a rock spire in the middle... maybe "magic" lol
Did captcha machine broke?
>>767773826
Literally explained why it's shit, instead of just being a tard and saying it's shit because I said so. Can't deal with the truth, that's on you faggot, not me.
>>767768855
looks pretty cool!
>>767773655
it's all online, there is no download.
>>767773980
I was thinking it looked like crater lake (but on a more massive scale).
the volcano erupted long ago, and the mound sank below the sea, but the tip of the volcano still protrudes out a little to form an island
>>767773915
yeah saw the beta sign up but thought it was a program you downloaded so didnt want to end up on some bullshit mailing list. Playing with it now, cheers anon
>>767772737
You can see that in a lot of places Budapest being the first to spring to mind. But Copenhagen and Malmö and a dozen of other places have the same dynamic.
Its a bit blobby design wise, but for the most part it looks good.
>>767773980
>Thanks for fulfilling the expectation.
The expectation of mean criticism? Or do you agree it kinda looks like two turds swirling around one another?
