Awesome indeed, learning a ton and gearing up for real projects. You asked about ideas about projects. The following comes to mind as I have been compiling type of maps out there. A city skyline type poster for any city of the world, themed (world of warcraft type) or fantasy map of a city with vintage texture etc.
Amazing video as always. One quick trick I learnt recently is when you are in Node selection mode, first select one node which you want to select and then you can press Ctrl + A to select all connected nodes in one go. Lemme know if that works for you! :)
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial... Please I need your help. I noticed that this method is easier when your area of interest is surrounded by water. Please could you do a tutorial for when your area of interest is landlocked? thank you
Thanks so much. I had the same thought and made a landlocked video here: How to Make Amazing Minimalist Map Art with Inkscape: Step-by-Step Tutorial th-cam.com/video/_L3j3KJHmAM/w-d-xo.html
Your videos have helped me more than I can say. I was wondering about using Inkscape to make a reverse coloring book page. I would love to see a video about that.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I tried doing this with Iceland following the same steps but in Inkscape when I clicked the ocean, it's not one thing but a grid of squares. So I go to select same>same fill to get all the ocean squares, and then the node editor, but the nodes are really messy and go into the interior of the island. I try to make a selection of the nodes but Inkscape always crashes (too many nodes I think). Do you know why the grid is showing up in the exported svg? I think that's what's throwing it all off. thanks a ton in advance for any input you have
Thanks so much! When this happens to me I try to go back and reduce the file size of the download. Is the Iceland one over 15 MB? That normally crashes my older computer pretty easily. The other idea is to double click the ocean until you see the Fill color on the Fill and Stroke tab show the same blue color. Then try deleting it without the Select same step. Once the big items are gone, things will move faster. Hope this helps!
Thanks so much! Been a fun journey so far. I am pretty sure I used Inter for this one. Away from my computer otherwise I'd check for sure. If it is Inter , it's a free open source font and you can get it from the Google fonts website. Hope this helps!
Hi there, I'm wondering if you do private tutorials as I am doing the exact steps and I get the nodes, copy, press escape, click my holder, press delete and then I hit paste in place the only thing it pastes is like a strange item... I'm pulling my hair out, just wondered how much you would charge to show me how to do this. Thanks v xx
So helpful, as always! Thank you, thank you! Really like the subtle touch of adding the image to the background to continue the Japanese theme. So clever and creative!! Silly question though, is your color palette at the bottom a custom palette? And is there a reason you chose those colors/gradient to have most easily accessible vs others?
Hey. Love your videos. I have learned a lot from your tutorials. I just wanted to ask if it's possible to make custom brushes in Inkscape like in procreate? TIA
I could give it a shot. My goal for this channel is to show alternatives to Illustrator people can use so they’re not locked into subscriptions for life. Are you using Illustrator? It is the industry standard and actually more powerful than Inkscape.
It's probably the OpenStreetMap ratio. Is it set to SVG for the download type? If so, try 1:1 and hit enter. It will automatically change the ratio to something large. Can you try that download and see if it improves the roads?
I went a little too quick on the OpenStreetMap part. The Share button is on the right menu and looks like a little rectangle with an arrow coming out. Click on that icon and you'll see the Share menu.
@@IronEchoDesign I don't have one. I had to click on Export on the left side, then the share button came up. My page looks different than yours. I just downloaded Inkscape yesterday, so it's new.
Okay, I see. I thought you meant the Share button on OpenStreetMap. Export is the right way if you're inside of Inkscape. Inkscape itself is a little tricky at first, but it's wonderful once you get the hang of it.
I'll see how this looks on the contact page on my website as I'm redesigning the whole thing. Thank you very much for the info.
That's awesome. I'm sure it will look great!
Love your tutorials! It's so simple to create such an interesting poster ❤️
Thank you so much!!
waw that looks AMAZING! Thank you for the incredible tutorial
Just when I thought I couldn't get better map tutorials from your channel. Pretty dope bro 👏👏
Thanks!! I like making these things.
@@IronEchoDesign thank you for sharing it up with us !
@@IronEchoDesign cyberpunk , anime stylized map style would be a good challenge?
Both great ideas! You got me thinking now. Thanks!!
Thanks! 🎉
This needs to get into every designer's feed.
Thanks! That would be amazing. Some day I hope to have that kind of reach.
Aguyje ko marandúre!❤
Great tutorial! Thank you. I am gonna try it myself this weekend!
Thanks! Have fun with it!

other list ideas that you have? i encounter this video and im interested on collecting also.
Thanks. Not sure how much map work I will do but it's nice to know how to do it.
Thanks! It can fun even just to play around with it.
Love your maps!
Thanks so much!!
this is really great and very helpful

Hey, I love your videos, been watching them from almost day 1. Can you tell me the font(s) you used for the label? Much appreciated!

I’ve looking for an artist to do this for me thanks for the lesson, let me try

Just recorded a specific video to answer this Procreate. I rushed it, but I hope it helps!
@@IronEchoDesign wow thank you so much
Thanks for the suggestion!!
How do you keep street names/areas on the map
When i do the Fill and Stroke part, it just selects half of the entire map. Do you know why it is happening?
Can you create a tutorial i how to creating a similar map on illustrator
I could give it a shot. My goal for this channel is to show alternatives to Illustrator people can use so they’re not locked into subscriptions for life. Are you using Illustrator? It is the industry standard and actually more powerful than Inkscape.
when i downlaoaded my map its missing a bunch of the roads that i can see are there in open street maps what am i doing wrong
It's probably the OpenStreetMap ratio. Is it set to SVG for the download type? If so, try 1:1 and hit enter. It will automatically change the ratio to something large. Can you try that download and see if it improves the roads?
@@IronEchoDesign I'll give that a try and let you know. Thx
9:54のグラデーションの選択ポイントが大きいのはなぜ？？？俺のはすごく小さいのに？？？
どこの設定をいじればよいのか・・・(;´∀｀)
I don't have a "Share" button. Mine doesn't look like yours. I'm new to this.
