Building Assets
Most fantasy maps feature cities, towns, and settlements that contain the main story engines of your world. Wonderdraft has a decently sized building palette in their “Symbols Tool”, but sometimes you just can’t find objects that would perfectly suit the aesthetic or setting your map is aiming for.
Luckily, many talented artists have experienced the same problem and created their own asset packs full of buildings:
