Project mention: CC0-licensed fantasy map brushes based on historical cartography | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-21Adding to the other answers, there are also -besides Photoshop, Gimp, etc- specialized tools to draw fantasy maps. The site mentions Wonderdraft [0], but there are a bunch of others though not all of them support using external brushes.
Some other tools in this space may be Watabou's tools [1], Azgaar's tools [2], Inkarnate [3], Mapforge [4], or quite a few more which you can find links to in this list [5]. Again: you could use these brushes with some of these; not all support external brushes.

Here's a simple example: Turn Marker. It's system-agnostic, it does something really simple: renders an animated image around the token with the active turn. It worked from version 5 through version 9. In fact, it worked for version 10 for a while and then suddenly stopped working. Somebody tried to create an "alt" version and kind of got it working, but it was flaky. Finally a more active contributor, Monk, released their version just three months. That version supports 10, but does not have a release for 11.
