Inkscape Map Art Tutorial: How to Make Custom Stylized Maps with Free OpenStreetMap Data

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

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

this is really great and very helpful

How do you keep street names/areas on the map

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!

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.

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?

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.

This needs to get into every designer's feed. <3

Thanks. I was looking for your video.

Love your tutorials! It's so simple to create such an interesting poster ❤️

Just when I thought I couldn't get better map tutorials from your channel. Pretty dope bro 👏👏

I don't have a "Share" button. Mine doesn't look like yours. I'm new to this.

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

Great tutorial! Thank you. I am gonna try it myself this weekend!

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

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! :)

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.

Love your maps!
