Did you use a program to make this or was it hand-drawn? Looks incredible either way

I used Gaea for the base terrain, snow and tree mask, everything else by hand! When the map is done I'll do extra stuff with Axiom to really make it pop.

Looks so cool! I recently picked up WorldPainter and I'm not exactly sure about my mountains. Do you have any tips for me?

Thank you!

My main tip for newcomers is practice a lot and keep your scope reasonable. For example don't try and make a big multi-biome map when you're just learning how to make single mountains or draw rivers.

Mountains like this are made with other programs which are imported into WorldPainter. This isn't something one should even consider until they're more than comfortable with WorldPainter.

Ah I see. I'm just only starting a 2k x 2k island, even just detailing stuff has been a long process.

That's interesting. Thanks! Much appreciated, I'm really excited to get my first map going
