Easily create hand-drawn fantasy maps for your upcoming fantasy novel or next role playing campaign without learning how to draw!

At one point or another you’ve probably found yourself pouring over the map at the front of a fantasy book, or staring at one mounted on the wall and wishing you could create something like that for the story you want to tell. But, perhaps you aren’t artistically inclined and know that it would take countless hours to try and teach yourself how to draw from scratch.

Now you can create hand-drawn fantasy maps of your own with just a few clicks and a bit of imagination. Whether you want a map for the fantasy book you’re writing or just want something to show off to your role playing buddies, this has you covered.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Create Maps in a Fraction of the Time

Anyone who has created a full map from start to finish knows it can easily take 40+ hours to draw each individual mountain, tree, and tuft of grass. But now you can create hand-illustrated maps in a fraction of the time; which means more time with your friends campaigning or writing your next novel.

Make High Quality Prints of Your Map

Each brush was created from high resolution illustrations so you can make prints of your map as large as you want without losing quality.

300x Unique Brushes

With 300+ brushes you’ll be able to create classic fantasy maps with features like mountains, forests, dunes, cliffs, standing stones, and more. Now you can create maps of your own that will immerse people in your story.

Create Maps in the style of Josh Stolarz

“I am often approached by people who want to commission me to draw a map for them for their first novel, or an rpg they are creating to play with their friends. Unfortunately, I have to turn many of them away because a custom piece is simply not within their budget. So, I decided to create the Map Effects Fantasy Map Builder so anyone would be able to create a hand-drawn map in my style with just a few clicks and a little creativity.” - Josh

FAQ

May I use this product for commercial work?
You may use the assets in this pack for commercial projects such as a map to include in a fantasy novel, or for marketing and branding for a client; as long as you credit the Map Effects Fantasy Map Builder for the original illustrations. But, as the map designer you will retain rights to the original design itself. You may not resell or redistribute the assets in this pack.

Are these brushes compatible with GIMP?
While GIMP and some other open source apps will import the .brushset file designed for Photoshop, you may need to make modifications to the stamp brushes in regards to their scale. Other modifications will need to be made regarding some of the liner or seamless pattern brushes in order to replicate how they would function in Photoshop or Procreate.
