Pleeease do more of these drawing tutorials. I'm more of a classic painter/illustrator but your style of character and world design is really interesting and beautiful.

Your point towards the end about how important it is to complete full compositions is really good advice for the beginning of a new summer, when finding self-motivation can sometimes pose a bit of a problem. Great insights as always!

I've struggled with these things for a while. Forests and deserts are my favorite and I've been too wary to map them for a while now

your channel and these demonstrations have been a great joy and inspiration for me. especially these tutorials on drawing in isometric perspective have motivated me to draw maps for my kids and to create a little board game for them. I am struggling with the terrain in isometric perspective. I learned some things by watching you, but slopes, rocky hillsides sloping away from the viewer I don't quite get. e.g. a naturally elevated structure like a citadel on a rock in a village. maybe it's of interest to highlight this in a video. anyways your approach is always encouraging to me!

I have been a gamer and moderator since i was 12 yo and am now 50. I have seen so many "unique" map icons over the years. THANK YOU for this channel! I hope it helps so many people with their maps! LOL! 🐺

I don't know what's happened to your KZfaq but I'm so happy for your success, name-brother.

I first watched either your isometric figures video or your reverse 5 step dungeon video and I’ve been hooked since. I’ve only been seeing your content since maybe a week or two ago, but I love your content and your art. Thank you for sharing with everyone!

Crystals are something I really struggle with. I'd really love to learn to draw them better, especially in this inked, black-and-white style. Thanks for the advice!

I found your channel just a few days ago, and i need to say that what you do and your tecnique is so inspiring! i've been some time without drawing but this encourages me to take the pencil again and make some cartoony shit again hahahahaha

It’s hilarious how useful this information is to me, was trying to figure out a good way to draw a snow on my map and you upload this while I was eating breakfast before I got to work on it. One of my favorite channels the algorithm led me towards, please make more of the content it’s really helped me get excited to draw again. Even if mapmaking isn’t my priority it’s a fun thing to do for my campaigns.

I love these videos so much.

Amazing! Thank you! You are very pleasant to listen to, and I am very thankful for you following up on the request :)

HOPE YOUR CHANNEL CONTINUES TO EXPLODE, YOU'RE LOVELY & THIS INFO HAS BEEN INVALUABLE

Thanks for all the insight you give! I've never really liked making maps for my games, but since discovering you last week, i've learned a lot and really like making maps now!

Even your ugly trees is something I've always arrived for!

Awesome, you should make more videos like this! Both the drawing tricks and the commentary here are top notch teaching wisdom pepitas! One other thing that I noted about the "final boss" you mention is that it's always better if I go for drawing things that I really like and consider "mine", instead of making supposedly "standard" stuff just to practice.

Dude, your videos are an amazing asset to the art community. Even if people don't want to create this stuff for dnd, this type of art is great for isometric game design like Diablo or final fantasy tactics.

I just wanna say that I absolutely adore your voice! Keep doing what you're doing, super helpful stuff

Love your recent success. I am a new viewer myself.

I stumbled across your channel recently, and I love it! Your videos are making me appreciate this art form so much more than I did before, and I can feel myself become more motivated to be engages with art and ttrpgs. Thank you for making them!

Hey, found your channel a couple days ago, so far I love it. I've always loved drawing maps, but I didn't know how to make them look detailed. This is the channel I've wanted to find for a long time. :)

great vid as always!! Looking forward to the next video!

Thanks for making these videos. I find them excellent.

your channel is incredible! Thank you so much for all the lessons!

This is all pretty amazing as always man

The only trees I have seen look like that are pines, and they are much taller, thinner, and have a texture closer to scales with small points on the end.

Great video as always Kyle. Have you ever thought about doing a video on voice acting for DMs? I know this is mainly an art channel, but I'd definitely like to learn more from your awesome goblin and treant impressions.

Nice

What advice do you have for drawing different types of river and lakes? From smooth streams to big old rapids?

I find deserts in particular quite difficult to draw on maps, just simple 2d maps with very plain details. They keep looking like hills so I appreciate your work here, those little lines inside the dunes seem to be what I was missing but even so I'd love to see more of them from a perspective that is like hundreds of miles above the landscape. (I'm thinking of like the big continent maps like the one on the "Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide") Arid areas as well are difficult for me, no life seems to exist in them and there's no reason people would want to live in those places aside from maybe nomads so it's hard to think of things to fill them. But I also don't want to leave blank spaces on the map.

Am very impress by your work! is there a course to learn the basics of isometric dungeon drawing?

I love your videos so much, and I'm trying to get into crafting and art more recently. What sort of materials (pen, pencils, the essentials) are the most important to getting started?

What is the red thing on your pen? It looks like something that could help with cramps when drawing

Could you possibly create a public discord server? also love your content- I just found you but I expected you to have many more subscribers. Extremely underrated, but I recently got into character design and art and videos helped a ton tysm!! (also you're really good at explaining stuff)

Why do you hold that carrot? Holding the pen straight wont be more controlled?

NO BOSSY TREES!! LOL

🥕🧡 carrot pen glorious orange and thick wonderful carrot pen

I'm pretty decent at drawing trees, but I struggle a lot with connecting them to the environment (the roots, basically) the top and trunk are fine, but when I reach the bottom, I literally stop drawing. Any tips???

What white out pen do you use?

haha rime with it
