Anyone have a good map of a library? I need one for a game this weekend.

I really like your style. Do you use a mapping program or photoshop?
Here's my first try at a campaign map using CC3. Still need to doctor it up some more, but here's the barebones.

Thanks.
I use Photoshop, beacuse I personally highly dislike CC/AutoREALM/Dundjinni/etc.
It's the first time I used this style, learned it via a tutorial yesterday in roughly one hour.

Looks very nice, but in some places a little... "empty" I'd say... but otherwise a very good start!

Looks like a great tutorial, thanks Liechenreiter. Personally, I think the look of my (along with many beginners) CC3 maps look...bland. I'm sure with some more work, and buying some add-ons, I can have it looking much better. A rare couple maps in the CC3 galleries are jaw-dropping. However, I know I'm going to end up taking it into Photoshop to put the finishing touches on it anyway, so why not start there?
How do you plan on place structures and place names?

I don't plan at all, I just let it flow

Well met, I just found this thread in an unrelated search and am very impressed with the materials so far, especially Foxen's work. Your style really appeals to me. After trying to draw maps using GIMP and a touchpad on my laptop I went back to my old pencil and paper. Plus I find this way I can keep older drafts for future reference. Eventually I'd like to get my map digitized and make some drivative maps showing ecozones, trade routes, things like that. It takes me quite a while to draw maps as I stive for ecological truth in the majority of the setting, as it makes the incongruos places more noteworthy. So here is a rough outline of a fantasy nWoD setting map I'm working on now, which may get put on hold if a prospective D&D group starts up. Sketch map

I am very impressed with what you all are doing with Photoshop and whatnots with the map making. Also love the hand drawn stuff, just love getting a glimpse into the insane creative minds out there!
Yeah, I really enjoy hand-drawing maps, but it seems so time inefficient compared to the program. And it's all about efficiency. K, just kidding. It's funny, cause I'm quick doing figure and landscape sketches but with hand-drawn maps it just drags on and on. I can accomplish in 1 hours with campaign cartographer what it takes me 4-5 hours to do by hand. I've noticed that the different symbol sets can give a computer-drawn map a very tactile feel. Still, there ain't nothing like a hand-drawn map.
Keep em' coming!

Not directly fantasy, but still nice. Created a 2D map for it, then put it on a globe. Fun times. Warning, bit planet ahead
