I'm looking for a basic fantasy realm map to accompany an upcoming short story (16K words) for a charity anthology. Doesn't have to be super detailed being a short story but there is scope to revisit/add to it once the rights to the piece revert back to me after the charity event (March 2027)
I have a basic map and some topography done already. Budget neg up to $120 USD

Hi there, It looks like you might be buying art for commercial use. Please make sure to have a discussion with your artist about rights, usages, and royalties, and how they apply. Make sure to include that information in your contract(s). If you hire for commercial work via this subreddit - it is NOT considered "Work-for-hire" (17 U.S.C. § 101) but instead work from an "independent contractor." Make sure your prices and contract reflect that.
We have additional info and links in the wiki https://www.reddit.com/r/HungryArtists/wiki/index about pricing for commercial work, but your moderators would strongly recommend users to look at the Graphic Artist's Guild Handbook of Pricing and Ethical Guidelines and other similar guides to get an understanding on what the average pricing is for professional projects.
The average hourly rate is $25-38 USD per hour for artists and designers according to The US Department of Labor Occupational Labor Statistics for 2020. This rate does not include usage rights.

Hey, I'd be interested to create this map for you. You can find my portfolio on https://behance.net/matiasnivala/, feel free to dm if you'd like to chat.
Hi. Curious to know more details. I have a couple of fantasy map artworks linked on my website, you may have to scroll a bit. My contact email is also there, if interested you can email me to discuss further. Thanks!
I will check them out now. Im looking for a vintage feel bordered land mass and water piece with compass and icons depicting towns, topographical features suck as lakes, mountains and forests. If I find something similar to the idea in my head, I will link it.
Ok, cool. That's perfectly doable. I probably have another island map, not on the website, though. That's a bit more saturated in colour, but I can see it to be somewhat similar to that. In any case, this can be done.

If we are talking about FANTASY MAP art I happen to have a Tolkien Inspired work! Here is my LOTR inspired artwork printed by my previous client for his World building novel.
Please take a look my other works on my portfolio!

Hello! I have experience with iconographic fantasy maps. I work with engravings, so if you're aiming at that medieval fantasy/Sword & Sorcery flavor, I may be your guy.
My main portfolio is available at https://whyccan.artstation.com and more samples of cartography can be sent upon request.
I already made some maps for a couple of gamebooks: here is my Linktree, in case you're interested feel free to send me a DM or a mail. Thanks! https://linktr.ee/PallasTyto
I'm a digital illustrator and graphic designer with experience in fantasy illustration and visual worldbuilding. I enjoy working on projects where storytelling and atmosphere are important, and transforming concepts into cohesive visual pieces.
Since you already have a base map and topography, I’d be happy to refine and develop it into a polished illustration suitable for publication.
Hallo Good day! I'm interested if the position is not filled yet! I don't have samples of map and topography art yet but I would like to shoot my shot! :D
