Video

Well, I have a pretty good mic but the audio here is from my thelephone camera. I usually have the USB mic when I record with my cam and I need to find a good balance in recording the two different resources and merging them later. Something that worked for another video. Anyhoo... Here in particular I've tried to filter the voice with the editing software to clean up the fan in the background - I think this decreased a lot the quality.

Oh no! I usually try to pick matching songs for these videos. Im sorry if the selected one isn’t this pleasing! - however thank you for your feedback! Making a top down view map isn’t easy especially when you want to show height. I’ll try to to better. This feedback is very useful!

Thank YOU for creating something fun and accessible!

Scattered Brush in a layer + Clouds Layer and CMD+L to play with it <3 Enjoy

Ciao! Thank you for your feedback. You know, talking with other Inkarnate users i've discovered you had much more freedom of choice in the beginning. I'm sad they have reduced this selection because could've been a great tool for authors and people willing to craft their own idea. I know 5 bucks a month may sound "doable" for many people, but today we have so many subscription plans and I wonder if there is something else that can be used for free and offering a better alternative =) - Glad my italian roots are screaming loud through my accent lol

@@renflowergrapx I didn't know that they cut back on their users! I'm not an Inkarnate user really, I tried it a long time ago and knew it wasn't for me. Especially because I also hate subscription models! I ended up using Wonderdraft instead which is similar. While it's not free ($30) and not perfect, it was a 1 time purchase and I can add my own assets to it. BUT I've been getting more into drawing my own maps though and that's how I found your video! Keep making these awesome videos!! And hey they are good roots (Italy) so keep them screaming! lol Ciao!

T_T Grazie. It took days to research, film and edit this T_T

Thank you!

Hey Tomas, When I upload and translate the subtitles I also create the title with youtube editor. If your browser is settled on Spanish you probably see the videos in the language you have turned on.

@@renflowergrapx That's interesting... Can i ask you something else? How do you get subtitles in 12 languages? XD

@@SuperTomas314 Oh, it's pretty simple: When I upload my own subtitles (or type them), I can automate the translation. In the window where you upload and edit your video, you can find the Subtitles tab! Just below the list, you will find the button to add languages, and for each language, you can automatically translate the original subtitles! You can also do this for titles and descriptions.

@@SuperTomas314 I know translations won't be always accurate, but I still want to give them a try. Especially when I share videos which are made to help people (like tutorials and info-sharing)

@@renflowergrapx So, you make the english subtitles and then use the translation right?

Your comment was hidden (i think it is for the link) - but this is a generator I haven’t used yet! Good catch!

Well, i can’t understand how it can be a name and a bad word in the same language. So i didn’t know how much i could tell, but i have discovered “D” is also another way to refer to the same therm. - i should study more from the urban dictionary. 😂

Thank YOU for watching =)

@renflowergrapx always!! I started to teach myself maps by looking at old 90s videogames but I've improved after watching you, wasd20 and pen&blade. Watching your work is like attending advanced class.

@@artblockonthefrontlawn6701 oh. Wow. I mean, this sounds like a huge compliment. (Thank you) - I don’t know much about where to start teaching. Thus i’m sharing my raw process and sometimes thoughts! If i may ask, what do you think is the most difficult part in mapmaking, at least for your experience so far?

Yup! A mixed technique :) i made a tutorial already for the forest and the brushes used!

Oh no. Why this happens when i insert it in the editor and when the video is still private 😖 this is the second time it happens - Oofff

@@renflowergrapx I was wondering if it's copyrighted music?

@@1n20DnD Nope. For some reason It didn't save the edits! I assume I made a mistake, but I can't tell - What I know the music track wasn't there in the Editor! Usually for short videos like this one I prefer to pick from the youtube music library.

Certo che c'è il retrogusto amaro =) Ma se gli permettessi di sopraffarmi, non mi rimarrebbe più nulla. E per me, creare, è sempre stata una ragione di vita. Ora, gli artisti visivi sono stati i primi a "cadere" ma ci sono anche i doppiatori, gli animatori, i traduttori. Tutte queste categorie stanno già subendo gli effetti di questa rivoluzione tecnologica. Quello che dovrebbe tuttavia far riflettere è che: social come META stanno ora raccogliendo foto personali, video, contenuti audio etc etc, per allenare la loro personale AI. Difatti puoi richiedere (essendo in Europa) di chiamarti fuori dalla raccolta, ma devi richiederlo manualmente. Sennò TUTTI sono ad oggi un prodotto. Non sono le opere, quelle ormai sono state dissacrate in tutti i modi. PS: non eri costretto a subirti tutto il video, lol.

@@renflowergrapx Lieto che tu abbia capito chi sono, anche se a ben guardare il mio nick era anche banalmente palese. Al di là di questo, ammettere che non possano rubarti chi sei è già una ragione per poter continuare e non perdere questa parte di te. E' che talvolta è difficile non cadere nella competizione dell'IA. Certo è che sì, occorre una notevole consapevolezza di sé per riuscire ad arrivare ad una certa illuminazione. Riscontro anche altri campi artistici in cui ciò sta accadendo (l'impoverimento creativo a favore del consumo) ed un'altra donna che resiste è Lilli Manzini (meravigliosa creatura). Detto questo il tema social mi preoccupa e non fosse che un poco li uso per tenermi in contatto o per sapere qualche news me li sarei tolti, mi fa orrore tuttavia il cosa si possa fare con questo materiale soprattutto quello relativi ai bambini (che spesso vengon resi pubblici sui social da genitori scellerati) che in genere vengono usati con fini molto ma molto malsani. Abbiamo uno strumento potente ma come per tutti gli strumenti potenti temo la mano che li muova.

@@tony-ytul9298 Non ho un seguito così accanito da non poter riconoscere le persone... :D Anzi, a malapena il mondo sa ch'esisto.

@@renflowergrapx beh 400 persone, una intera scuola, mica pizza e fichi!

@@tony-ytul9298 Hai ragione. A volte mi sconforta pensare che ho perso un profilo con seguito a 4cifre. Dall'altra parte mi ha dato l'opportunità di ricominciare.

Thank youuuu! :D

Oh. Wow. I mean, I was not ready for this kind of compliments. Just... Thank you! 😶‍🌫 I'm already working on the next episodes. I need to understand HOW to group the informations I want to share. It's hard for me to decide what to prioritize. What would YOU like to see next? - And Well, I have a patreon already. It is for battlemaps mostly =)

@renflowergrapx i mean i rly appreciate getting to see your process. Both from a technical perspective and artistic. Partly I'd like more in-depth on line-art and coloring especially. But I also rly appreciate the tiny tips and tricks, like how u used smudge or how u organize your layers. For a newbie like myself that stuff is invaluable! Finally I want more of your artistic process, like how you don't just create a map u create a story. That rly resonated with me :)

@@olofmelin4606 Thank you. As a player for me it is almost natural keep an eye on what's going on. But yes, This is an aspect I want to bring more often. Thank you so much for taking the time and writing me your point on this. I have appreciated it!

Per fortuna metto tutti i sottotitoli! Anche se non garantisco al 💯 per la traduzione 😝- quando ce la fai una bella mappa in pirografia?

@@renflowergrapx Sai che è una bella idea? Solo che non saprei come crearla, dovrei andare sul classico...mmm 🤔🤔

@barbaefuoco secondo me un bel tributo a Mordor o al Signore Degli Anelli in toto può sempre attrarre! Non credo che faresti fatica a trovargli casa dopo! Poi le mappe di quella serie sono estremamente semplici a livelli di forme… se vuoi stare sul classico! Se invece hai voglia di sfide, io mi ispirerei alle ultime mappe iper colorate del mondo di Zelda!

🪷 - Mi commuovo

👀 - My heart is beating so looooud! I'm not sure if this approach was too simplistic or if I managed to remind you of some solid fundamentals. #help

It's so good!

@@1n20DnD Thank you! Also, thank you for your service! I completely forgot about chapters 😶‍🌫

​@@renflowergrapx, you're welcome to copy this into the video description. CZcams will automatically create chapters for the video if you do. Hope that helps! 😊

@@1n20DnD A M A Z I N G! It worked, i just needed to add 0:00 on top of the list! <3

I hope you'll turn this into a series!

@@1n20DnD I would love to talk about fantasy maps from various perspectives. Besides their aesthetics (which I still consider crucial), I’d like to delve into the aspects of worldbuilding. The thing is, as I mentioned in the video, there are so many resources out there, and I don't want to end up repeating what's already been said. I'm trying to figure out what PERSONAL contribution I can offer, something that comes from my own experience. Anyway, you’re really kind - Ty! I’d love to know if there are any aspects YOU want to explore further!

@renflowergrapx well, the first thing that comes to mind: I would love to see how you might develop a map for a West Marches style game! Would you draw it as they explored? Or have it all ready and just use a VTT or something to slowly reveal it.

@@1n20DnD OH WOW. This is super interesting and a challenge for sure!! - By definition, this style of gameplay involves exploration through "action and consequence" - so it definitely starts from a bare-bones foundation. Ideally, there would be an interactive map where multiple people can update their discoveries. But maybe you wanted to ask me how *I* would recreate it if I had to offer a method accessible with tools available to most people? In my opinion, Roll20 would provide an excellent sandbox base for creating a shared map that can be gradually revealed over time. Especially considering the ease of use of the site and the free account option. :P Oh no. Now I feel like I have a new quest ahah. Seriously this was an interesting question.

@@renflowergrapx yeah, I'm wondering if YOU would create a starting area, then draw more as things developed? As an artist, it seems like you would have more freedom to build.

❤ glad you like it!

✨ grazie!

🙏 grazie! sempre felice di sapere che può essere d’aiuto. Altri video lasciano in evidenza anche la finestra livelli o strumenti.

Thank you May! I appreciate you pushing me always a bit further than my comfort zone. Your trust in the process has always meant a lot to me.

🙏 thank you!

Thank you so much for your words!! Im glad the videos are of any help. I would recommend you to look for Map Effects or Maps By Owen channels here on CZcams. They are super skilled and also offer plenty of tutorials! Looking forward to seeing your work here as well! 🪷

Ciao! C'è un segmento del video alla quale ti riferisci nello specifico? visto che non ho usato lo stesso pennello per tutto lo sviluppo.

Ma per rispondere in modo generico: 90% dell'illiustrazione si divide tra pennello tondo solito con dimensione tarata sulla pressione e pennello tondo solido ma con opacità su pressione. Quindi due cerchi sostanzialmente. uno che si assottiglia quando premo meno e uno che sia più trasparente quando premo meno. Il restante dei dettagli, come in questo specifico caso alberi e blocchi di colore, utilizzo pennelli a texture grunge con opacità per l'effetto acquarello oppure la sagoma degli alberi per semplificare la loro distribuzione. Se vuoi ho un video interamente dedicato agli alberi dove spiego in italiano come costruire un pennello ad hoc per quello. Spero sia d'aiuto, se hai domande sono qui!

Ahhhh Questa mappa è stata sottovalutata T_T Chissà chi la userà in modalità Puzzle

Sì. Tavoletta grafica e Photoshop.

​@@renflowergrapx minuto 4:00, che pennello era?

@@samueleamadei443 Un semplice tondo a bordi solidi. Ma Il livello aveva un effetto di bagliore interno in moltiplica con disturbo diffuso. Mi dispiace che in questa registrazione io abbia dimenticato di mettere i livelli visibili. Di solito li lascio in chiaro apposta per poter leggere gli stili di livello e gli Fx! Ma se hai domande fai pure. Per la maggior parte del tempo utilizzo tre pennelli: solido tondo, solido con opacità oppure uno gruge che simula il pietrisco per texturare alcune aree.

Actually I have forgot to save it :D - Oops. Thank you for letting me know!

Zach! It has been a long journey since the first draft of the map. I can’t be happier to finish the series and give a brand new look!

Aww Grazie mille! Essendo un concetto astratto era difficile da disegnare questo ponte. Ma per la musica non ho alcun merito aimé ahaha

@@renflowergrapx Beh ma è tutto l'insieme che funziona alla grande!

Hey there! Thank you so much!

Oh wow, I can't translate this message myself... but accordingly with what google translator says... Thank you or... Cảm ơn!🪷!

@@renflowergrapx So beautiful. I love it! ❤️ 🎉

Ma grazie mille! 🪷

Due master hanno commentato similmente... Mi toccherà crederci ahahah

Grazie Sion 🪷!!

Aww! Grazie! This is a puzzle map! I wonder if it is the case to share the solution to unlock all the doors in the correct order!
