Dragonsthorp

MisjayMaps post Dragonsthorp from patreon

Heya everyone... here it is :-)  
Thor has smiled upon me and permitted me just enough sunlight to feed my laptop via the solar panel to get this uploaded and released into the wild today 

Dragonsthorp is the 1st of 6 settlement maps suggested by Patreon Supporters in October. This little Viking themed sett...

Hidden Vale

MisjayMaps post Hidden Vale from patreon

A huge 60x60 battlemap

Here we go... after nearly 50 hours of growing this huge map out of nothing, I am quite pleased with how it turned out and hope that it will inspire some interesting plots or encounters in your games :-) 

Hidden Vale is a rocky valley at the downstream...

Fire in the Dark

MisjayMaps post Fire in the Dark from patreon

This started life as an abstract painting ... when it was finished, I realised that it would make for a great encounter location, perhaps a place to battle fire sprites?
... So here it is... something dramatic to light up a dark place with
Have fun!

Wild Pool

MisjayMaps post Wild Pool from patreon

Or is it sometimes a portal? Perhaps only at night? and if you jump in, where does it go to? .... Perhaps to a parallel world that has the same landscape, but a different climate? Or to a different time at the same location?

I had a big backing up session the other day and found this map lurking up a forgotten corner......

Konrith

MisjayMaps post Konrith from patreon

After brewing in for months, Konrith is ripe and ready to escape into the world :-)

This is a small unassuming town or perhaps the heart of an old  city, where the original gardens and orchards in the city center have  not been built over.
There are many small ally-ways, courtyards,  greenhouses, vera...

September 2022 Shield Challenge

MisjayMaps post September 2022 Shield Challenge  from patreon

Heya!  .... Here they are

I ended up with 28 Item cards in all ... some are variations on a theme, some are 2 states of the same shield. So, basically 24 different shapes ... Not quite one for every day of the month of September, but close! 

It was a good spontaneous break-out View Post

Good afternoon
It is nearly the middle of the month already.... not sure where it is flying away to!
To space out all these 'Spring cleaning' posts with something a bit more interesting, I thought I would show off a bit of what I have been working on recently ....

The Old Church Library

And here it is.... This one has been a long journey from woe to go
But is it complete. I love how it has turned out & I hope that you will find some interesting ways to put it to good use. 

The scale is actually 2m per square (6 ft) but that is close enough to 5 ft that it shouldn't matter I hope ... ?

September Plots & Plans

MisjayMaps post September Plots & Plans from patreon

Hiya Everyone … It is Spring here in the antipodes and I have once again been mentally-spring cleaning & re-calculating how to keep creating the maps I love and fit them in around my currently unpredictable life (being basically homeless & doing random house-sitting is not conducive to regular hours)…

Nukshan Atoll Dock-Town

MisjayMaps post Nukshan Atoll Dock-Town from patreon

Out in the middle of the ocean, somewhere tropical, is an atoll  called Nukshan. Named for the Captain of the first crew to stumble upon  the haven and grind their storm-battered ship up the beach. Nukshan has  since grown into a small, yet busy, port town with traders docking almost daily, exchanging goods fro...

The little version:

  • I am still alive over here
  • The atoll dock-town of Nukshan has progressed... but still needs a LOT of trees before I can let it out of my sight

Hi everyone, This is a re-make of a little encounter area map I was commissioned to draw early last year... A dam at the confluence of 2 rivers in a park area, overlooked by 2 platforms... and no bridges in sight
It was a fun little location to draw

Patrons can find an un-gridded/no logo version of the free map shown...
