1/8/2023 0 Comments Isometric grid mapping![]() So yeah, a fairly major departure from my typical drawing techniques, although at the heart of the map it retains my standard calling cards – my hashing, a mix of natural and constructed design, and multiple elevations with some overlap between them. ![]() ![]() It was drawn on isometric paper, I had to rough it out with pencil first (because of the overlays between levels and it wasmy first day working with iso-paper) and I even added a grid to it as I drew it (I kinda like the style of grid in question, although I missed two grid lines at one spot). I drew this map a few months ago when I drew my isometric version of the OSR logo. Normally I draw my maps freehand – pen on plain white paper with no grid, no baseline grid, and no pencil rough. I’ll be posting more maps in this format over the next while. In the picture beneath, there’s an example of a flat dungeon interpreted into the isometric grid. The same day that I drew those, I finished off with this map – a nice full-page isometric dungeon to really experiment with this style. When starting with isometric mapping, it’s not a bad idea to begin by doing a quick scribble of your map on a normal square grid (also included on the download below). A while back I posted my OSR logo and some rough experiments I did with isometric graph paper.
