I like it! You realize that a what you are really making isn't a map, but a fun game board. Which is genius.

I think I would print out a copy for myself and then give my players a blank copy and over time glue cut out hexes as they explore the map, for some good old exploration gameplay.
I think I would give them the hex and explain what type of terrain the next hex over is and say nothing else. I would also probably use some kind of secret or point of interest for a hex that they could stumble across or spend time and search for. I am taking this idea from the way the Pathfinder Kingmaker exploration worked (at least what I understand how it works).

I like how the hex isn’t drawn on the forests and mountains.
It kind of emphasises the idea that you can get lost, and not be able to judge how far you have gone.

Thanks for the shoutout! It was so fun making these maps for you! Love your content!

I'd love for a video of one of your dnd sessions. My friends and I just started playing and I'd like to see how you approach being a DM.

No swamps? Aww :( endless fields of sorrow are a must have

Would love a video about creating depth in a map, holes, mountains, caverns, etc. Been great watching all your DND videos they are really motivating!

How to make a World Map!?!?!?!?!?!

I was not aware of blue pencils, so thank you for going into the weeds.

You've inspired a journey for me but through a digital approach

That leather map is awesome!

your illustrations are so clear and neat.  love your drawing style.

Hi JP, just wanted to comment that I think your the most underrated youtuber out there, and I hope you have a great day. Keep the great videos up! :)

Omg thanks so much I was DRAWING hexes on an A2 paper. I was so frustrated until I found this video. Thanks so much💪💙

Your omni-studio link sends you to a trojan horse site.  Web security will lock your computer

In some places I'd like to see your mapwork as you speak, but your gestures are good at punctuated what you're saying.
I also think the current 5e rulebooks could have more cohesively organized/shown how rations, encumbrance, encounter tables, visible and hidden landmarks, healing, and exhaustion link up into the wilderness experience.

JP, found your channel via Map Crow. You’re awesome man! I’ve never drawn more than stick figures and such in my life, and here I am spending my morning drawing a hex map. (And having a blast as I do!)

Thank you for making these encouraging and inspiring vids! And Happy New Year! 🎉🥳

Great video. The maps are way cool looking!

Thank you so much, I made a hex map for my first series as DM, this hex map I am gonna use as chapter 2
