    Question What are some techniques for raised relief maps in Photoshop?

    Not sure if there are any existing threads that discuss this. Link those if they already exist.

    So I want to be able to create a fantasy relief map following the style of the attached map. Are there any photoshop techniques out there to get this style? I would like to avoid cutting and blending real world height maps together, creating a 'frankenstein map.' I'd prefer having complete control over mountains and valleys. I had the idea of using the bevel and emboss effect in photoshop but couldn't quite get this look. Does anybody have specific settings/techniques they've used to get this style???

    Thanks in advance for your help!
