A New Way to MAKE MAPS and Handouts for your Role Playing Games

- A new way of making maps and handouts for tabletop games and cosplayers that I havnt seen anyone out there using.
Using Materials as the medium for my handouts I get a much more Immersive prop that feels more fantasy than a piece of paper or a printed map.
Maps, Clues, puzzles and treasure hunts await with this fun style of handouts. I hope you fine use for them in your next session of Dungeons and Dragons or whatever game you play.
Also combine this with my previous build for some Magic Maps!

Thanks for watching
Crayon - brown in particular - works really well. So does sealing wax, especially the gold stuff.
Another nice trick is to pre-soak your cloth in dilute PVA glue and let it dry on a sheet of glass or plastic laminate. You can draw and paint on the stretched cloth really easily, it's like artist board. When you peel the cloth free it stays stiff. Fold it up, sit on it a few times, whack it with something. When the players open it the folds will resist, it gets a little flaky, and is really tactile.
Awesome notes, Ill have to give them a try. I love to add as much variation as i can in my handouts so this is gold 👌
Maybe create a small portrait with popsicle stick frame (made to look gold or something) holding it in place, in case they wanted to inspect it, or take it, or even sell it, and if they remove the picture from the frame, they might find a clue behind it, or in the portrait itself. 🤔
I love a good handout, using the cloth is such a great step up from paper, especially if it is meant to last a few sessions or longer
I'm all about emersion! I Wana get onto making more props and handouts for future videos. Just gotta come up with some good ones
Old bedsheet is genius!
Gotta reuse as much as you can!
Fantastic stuff! Definitely will yoink this idea whenever/if I ever run an irl game haha
I love the thought of my ideas being stolen for other games! Hopefully the world reopend to IRL games again soon
Great idea! Could also trace some of the book maps or print outs from Inkarnate if you have one of those flat LED plate lights if you struggle at drawing maps. I'd love to try this with some acrylic inks to fill in some of those colored areas
For sure, just dont use the sharpie while you trace! 😋
I plan too experiment with canvas material and maybe some alcohol markers/water color for some more subtle colors and gradients.
Ooooh this is such a fun way to do maps, one of the players in my game (who also DMS) prints his maps out at Officeworks on blueprint paper, which looks pretty neat if you like switching things up often ☺️
Interesting.... I may just have to try that :P
Best thing is, you hand these out to players and then they begin filling up the blanks as they discover new places!
How cool is that!
It's the best part! Seeing the players face when things click and maps start to come in handy. And building the maps out more and more as a campaign goes on
nice stuff, just subscribed!
Legend! Welcome to my nerdiness
I saw the comment from Rob - please let us see how that works out! Fantastic video, of course.
I think it might be time to revisit this soon and test out those ideas of his
@@SebMakesStuff The most popular writing medium ever, 'India Ink' is just soot & glue! You could burn something and add goop and, boom, ghetto India Ink. Technically you could also make paper, but please don't! This cloth idea is far, far better. I loved your idea of adding bloody hints - adding colour and story. If this works you have an amazing T shirt idea with utterly no competition.
Haha well I actually have a video where I make paper from a bamboo plant in my yard, and Botanical inks from flowers. Then I make a quill from a goose feather. That was an interesting experiment. In making a scroll from scratch
Very nice I love it!
thank you :)
This is genius!
Cheers mate
Stealing this for sure
Love it! Bring the material maps into all the games!!!!!
