First Post
So, I wrote a book. Actually, two books, and the third has been started.
I am almost ready to publish the first book but I have one thing standing in the way--a map of the realm. I am truly not an artist and cannot draw to save my life, so I am throwing this out there for advice.
What software do you prefer to draw overland maps? Mine is going to be a black and white map and will not have a ton of granular detail, but I want it to be somewhat in the style of, say, the map from the Lord of the Rings books--a little aged.
I have looked a little at Campaign Cartographer and I'm pretty sure it could do the job but, seeing as how I have zero experience in this area (I work with words, not pixels), I could use a little guidance.
Thank you!
