Are potential newbies allowed to ask for help/advice with mapmaking here?
I haven't played an NES yet (still looking for a moderately early on one to join, I've considered TerraNES upon others suggestion), though, eventually, I would like to GM my own.
However, my issue is a combined lack of artistic skill and many editing tools (I have MS Paint, GIMP 2, and Photoshop Elements at my disposal).
Does anyone have advice for:
Creating geographically realistic maps? (I.E., bays, rivers, elevations, climate zones, etc.)
Editing these maps to look of better quality? (While still maintaining editability, but without having a poor quality.)
I may post a few more questions in here later, if permitted.
