WW2 & Modern War Symbols & Icons – Old Cartography Assets Megapack

Description

You can use this assets pack with Wonderdraft as well as any image editing software such as Photoshop or GIMP.

Take your maps to the next level with this vintage-style military asset megapack—perfect for fantasy cartography, historical maps, and wargame scenarios. Featuring 154 high-quality icons, this set includes troops, tanks, aircraft, warships, submarines, artillery, missile launch sites, barracks, strategic bases, plus a new ground texture and theme, all designed in the authentic style of old cartography.

Conflict zones, destruction markers, and prisoner-of-war camps bring war-torn landscapes to life, while docks, aerodromes, power stations, and munitions factories define key strategic points. Customizable backgrounds let you fine-tune each icon to your map’s style, while movement arrows help visualize troop advances, naval routes, and air operations. Barbed wire paths, fortified defensive lines, restricted areas, and modular flags add depth and tactical realism, making this pack essential for crafting detailed battle maps, alternate history settings, or grand strategy wargames. Build immersive, dynamic worlds where every symbol tells a story! These resources are designed for Wonderdraft, but easily usable in other softwares like Inkarnate (Wonderdraft assets are just .png files).

Installation Instructions for Wonderdraft

After you have downloaded the zipped file unzip it into an empty folder.

You will have two new folders: ‘assets’ and ‘themes’. Locate your Wonderdraft custom assets and themes folder.

Copy and paste both assets and themes folders into your Wonderdraft folder and merge with existent folders.

Instructions for use with Photoshop or Gimp or any other image editing software

You can use the included PNG images with these software programs.

For images labeled as ‘normal color,’ you can use them as-is in all of your image software.

For images labeled as ‘sample color,’ if you want to create a transparent background and only keep the outlines so you can add your own colors, it’s best to put the layer with the image(s) in ‘multiply’ mode. This will make the white color completely transparent, allowing you to keep only the black lines.

For images labeled as ‘custom color,’ you can choose your own colors by changing the hue of each of the three primary colors separately.

May your journeys through cartography assets & fantasy map symbols be filled with boundless imagination and endless discovery. Happy mapping!
