Why is it a PDF?
Cooper Rivera
The file too big in paint form

Use pencils, pens, and paper instead. It’ll be easier to get good results than with MS Paint. Rough everything out with light pencil strokes, refine the edges, and then move to pen when you have it refined to your liking.

Maps should be made in photoshop

Correct.
Nolan Hill
You are 90% correct. here's one I was doing the other day but stopped because it was 3 AM and I kept screwing up. Need to fiddle with it more and fix things before moving on to the final embellishments.

Why is the ocean made of piss?
Ryan Ross
It's called the piss pool because of the pollution that goes into it
Thomas Perry
that's just egypt with cyprus too low
Christopher Jones
I would never say it wasn't. Mythic bronze age games are the best.

Definitely thought it looked familiar. Although, any river that flows north through a desert has that feel.
I made this based on a map of the final dungeon in Lost Mine of Phandelver I found in the 5eg trove. Running LMoP currently and I've been second guessing this map. It's a map OF the dungeon while the module says that so-and-so has a map TO the dungeon. So-and-so hasn't fully explored the dungeon yet so it doesn't make sense that he'd have a full map of the place. What would Veeky Forums do; do away with the map and make another one leading to the final dungeon or hand wave the whole thing and use it anyway?

Also no Sinai or red sea
Robert Sanchez
Fair enough.
Evan Gomez
Damn that's cool
Hunter Carter
Thanks. It's just two sheets of linen/cotton blend paper glued together with several washes applied to give color and water stains. Went a little wild with the blood. Pic related is the back of the map.

why is the ocean yellow
neck yourself

I'd kill myself but that made my day

Your map is over complicated. You should simplify your colors. You need are also too original. Take a look at pic related. This is how you become Chad Forger of Worlds
Lucas Gray
See "There's things I need to fix". That's already been adjusted.
I need to do this now.
Lincoln Martinez
hey OP may i make a suggestion for what to name your world?
Mason Sullivan
Derailment aside, I don't think it's a bad map OP. Needs a bit of work, but I think this could definitely be the start to something interesting.
My advice would be to look at existing landforms, relative to the size/scale of the map you want to make.
Like, if you're making a "multi continent world", try reading up some about tectonic plates. Or, if you aren't sure about how mountains and hills should work, try checking out some geology diagrams on that. It definitely helps with consistency.
Figure out the basics. Practice practice practice, and THEN try experimenting with weird stuff (magical terrain, anomalies, etc).
