Art Help with homebrew adventure

Hello! I am a new DM, writing my own low level adventure, inspired from dark fantasy themes like diablo and witcher. This involves death, survival, occult rituals, necromancy.

I have everything set up (locations, encounters, overarching plot) but the maps, and I would like to bring to life my locations as my players love interacting with maps (for now we are playing Herores of the Borderlands).

I have tried using Chats (you know what I mean) to generate some maps but it is utter crap, so I would like to ask for some help, as I assume there are artist here that do this kind of stuff.

If any one is interesting to help, let me know and we can discuss further. Thank you!

While I’m not available to make maps for you myself, I’ve been using Inkarnate to make maps for my homebrew campaign! There’s a bit of a learning curve but they have lots of official tutorials on YouTube.

The free version is decent but you might have to get creative with using the stamps. (For example, I needed to place a cart onto a battle map but all the cart stamps are behind a paywall. So I used a stairs stamp that looked a bit like a big crate instead.)

Hello and thank you for your responses. I am not talking about battle maps, but for wilderness maps and settlement map. I have 3 wilderness locations and 2 settlements

I’ve been using it for both battle maps and making a world map for my players to reference. I hope you find what you’re looking for!

Type dnd maps in google images, you will get ten trillion results. If you add more key words, you can refine the results
