- In this video, I draw a fantasy map in an A5 notebook, this includes drawing and shading mountains, drawing forests and trees, adding other fun elements to the map, drawing rivers and adding place names.

This man makes it look like a master piece
what an amazing map
I really like that map and it sparks my imagination❤
I’ve started fantasy map drawing from like 3 weeks ago and I found your channel from 4 days and it’s so good and I’m so confused why your channel doesn’t have I lot of support and subscribers you deserve more than that(keep up the good work 👍🏻♥️)
I’m so glad you found me and are coming along for the ride! Things can only grow by one person at a time, so I really appreciate your support. Let me know if you want to see anything!
Very nice way to showcase the series.
Thank you Rathaven, I hadn’t actually thought of it as a showcase but that’s quite a cool idea! Cheers
I really like the way you draw map. thanks for showing this
Owen I love your maps and the little set up you got going on! Great stuff mate!
Thanks Jack, that’s really kind of you to say! Let me know if there’s something in particular you want to see
This is really amazing! I've found your videos recently and It's actually inspired me to start drawing my own maps! Started my first one today using your techniques.
Hi Claudia, thank you so much for the comment, that's really made my day! I'd love to see your maps, do you post them online anywhere?
Your videos are really helpful and fun to watch at the same time! I love it
This is the best part. Also, this looks amazing
Thank you so much! 😊
@@MapsbyOwen Can you also show how to draw dragons, ships and serpents on the map. It would be really cool.
@@holydutchlord3477 Ok, I'll learn to draw ships and defintiely will do a video on the subject! Thanks
@@MapsbyOwen I should be thanking you for making my maps look much better
Fantastic! Another master piece!
Ahh thank you Adriano! 😊
As a geek who loves maps, this channel is gold 👌 I'm trying to draw some maps myself, and these videos are very useful, I'm looking forward to seeing your next tutorials! 😊
Ahh thank you so much. What are your maps for? Do let me know if there's something specific you'd like to see in a video.
@@MapsbyOwen Thanks for your reply! I'm drawing a fantasy world map for a tabletop rpg. It would be great if you could show different examples of how to draw icons that represent cities inside a world map, from large fortified cities, to humble towns and small villages. But all your tutorials are awesome, anything you post will be useful, I'm sure :)
Really incredible! Would love to see the 1x speed, 90 minute video!
Thank you, a few people have said this so maybe I will try, although it may take my computer a few years to export such a file!
Love your videos! You're probably my favorite fantasy cartographer on TH-cam that I've discovered so far--I think I just resonate with your style more than anyone else's, and your tutorials and demos are quick, easy to follow, and aesthetically cool!
I'm curious about how you might draw a map of a large plains area--something like the African savannah, or American Great Plains. So often fantasy maps include mountains, forests, and other bespoke physical features, but I've been trying to think of my own approach to more sparsely populated regions. I'd love to see what you come up with.
Similarly, 'd be interested to see how you would draw an arctic "frozen wastes" region, like Antarctica or Greenland or a large desert like the Sahara. I imagine hills, mountains, and cliffs apply in these kinds of places, but I'm curious about the wide-open areas of the world that people just tend to /not/ draw. Hope that makes sense.
Thanks again! 🙂
Wow thanks Aron, I really appreciate the comment. I'm going to have to think on those regions as for one, ice is very hard to represent without using colours. If I could draw a few lions roaming around, maybe that might work for a savannah... shame I'm crap at drawing :)
When I draw mountains I repeatedly draw hem from West to east.
Love it! Love your weekly videos on map making, keep it coming! Would love to see more on different styles for drawing town/city maps like you posted a few weeks back. Big fan!
Thank you Alexander! Do you want to see the towns/cities in pen or on Procreate?
@@MapsbyOwen I would personally love to see them in Procreate.
Your tutorials have been so helpful for making maps for my D&D world.
@@Aweide Ok, that's really good to know. Will definitely put that on the list! Watch this space....
Great video mate. Any advice on how to draw the steps you've done there? Really want to put that on a map I`ve started. Cheers
One more amazing map. I like to know how many time after you finish the drawing you rubber the initial sketch?
Thank you so much! I usually just try to erase all the pencil lines at the end, in one go. I use a very soft eraser but the more you use it, the more the ink fades. There’s a link in the description to the eraser I use, I love it!
@@MapsbyOwen thanks
😍😍😍
Thank you Loyd!
Your map is amazing Owen,but if you color the map, l think it will be better. I also like to have adventures in your map. You can create a new game wih this map based on ludo rules.
Thank you very much! I might experiment with some colouring on this one, will definitely record it if I do 😊
