Here's a shitty map that I drew for my DM. It just pushed it out in 5 minutes because it helped me organize my backstory better.

I just read tutorials on the internet and draw all of my maps. Some of them are decent, but fuck if they don't take forever to get done. Especially cities.

See from afar, it looks great. Zoomed up, wow does it looks...very...well, difficult to look at and confusing.

I like to use the dice-on-paper method then scan it into an image.

Empty your dice bag onto a sheet of paper, trace around the dice clumps to find your coastlines, then assign terrain based on the #'s on the dice.
>20's = major cities/strongholds, 1's = plains, etc.

Well it was dope. Til they decided to "upgrade" it by removing half the existing content and replacing it with more detailed but somehow less readable content that is a clear step down from what it was before.

Any else?

Also how would I go about measuring distance and such?
