060 - Imperial Detention Block C2-38

Miska Fredman post 060 - Imperial Detention Block C2-38 from patreon

This map was made according to the wishes of one of my long time patrons as an on-going $5 reward. I was asked to do a detention block with some interrogation rooms and to me this sounded like a very useful idea. I decided to design this cell block as a modular unit that could be easily slapped together with some other map or...

Miska Fredman post 059 - the Hidden Tomb of the Last Master from patreon

The forbidden scriptures that were saved from the destruction of the temple's library had crucial information about the location of Master Noc'dur hidden tomb.  Master Noc'dur was one of the last Guardians who was able to fold space by manipulating the Light. 

The tomb was built inside a mountain ...

Miska Fredman post Did You Know How Amazing You Are? from patreon


I would like to thank you for supporting my work. 

It's been almost a year since I started drawing maps again after a long break of almost 20 years or so. I really appreciate your support because without it I would have probably quit drawing the maps again. But having an audience for my maps has kept me ...

Dune Bandit Lord's Palace

Miska Fredman post Dune Bandit Lord's Palace from patreon

The Dune Bandits rule the great Plains of Rust. They have taken over an abandoned monastery deep in the wasteland. The bandits call it the Palace and it is also the den of their lord.  An evil and savage tyrant of the wastelands who will feed all who oppose him to his vile beasts.

Dune Bandit Lord's Palace (WIP)

Miska Fredman post Dune Bandit Lord's Palace (WIP) from patreon

I'm working on this map that I should get done and posted on Patreon this evening. I used Jabba the Hutt's palace from the Return of the Jedi as inspiration, but I'll see if I can make this a bit fantasy-ish, so you could use it as some sort of bandit lord's palace in fantasy settings as well. But, I would gladly hear from yo...

Smuggler Base 404

Miska Fredman post Smuggler Base 404 from patreon

The Smuggler Base you are looking for was not found. Yeah. That's the origin of the name of this map :)  This map started out as a quick doodle on coffee break, but it ended up as a "real" map. My intention was to release this as just a quick doodle, but I got an idea about trying to use textures with the h...

Testing a new technique

Miska Fredman post Testing a new technique from patreon

I was about to post this smuggler hideout as a black & white map, but then a got an idea. I quickly bashed together some textures, like in the Halls of the Mimics that I released awhile ago. I have to say that I kind of like the end result. It has the hand-drawn lines and shadows, but the textures bring nice additional de...

Halls of the Mimics - style test

Miska Fredman post Halls of the Mimics - style test from patreon

Hello, I wanted to make a quick test on how to do these maps that look like they are generated by kitbashing various textures and applying layer effects on Photoshop. Well, it was exactly that :)

This map has no greater idea behind it. I just went on and added some rooms and corridors and then splatted on some textures ...

Colony Outpost

Like most of the other early colony complexes this small outpost is made out of modular units housing a dozen colonists or corporation professionals. The modules are pressurised so that they can maintain higher atmospheric pressure inside the buildings. These units are designed for thin atmospheres, so they do not have actual...

What looks like a dull and ill kept old stone keep hides a beautiful garden and a giant statue made of gold inside its cold walls. But like its outer appearance, everything in this temple is not as it looks.

Hi all and good to be back from vacation. I did not draw any maps during the holiday, so I already had a couple of ideas on my mind that I wanted to draw right away.

The Goblin Lair

Miska Fredman post The Goblin Lair from patreon

Here's the first actual adventure map we played through with my kids in our D&D5e summer campaign (although, I have feeling that this campaign will be much longer than the notoriously short Finnish summer). 

The adventurers went to investigate strange thundering noises and lights coming from a narrow pass in th...

The adventures take place in the world of Argouna, that we are designing and expanding as we play. Basically this is your typical fantasy world seasoned with occasional flying ...

By a stream running through the woods there’s a small farm with a small two-storied house and a barn with a pigpen and a small cattle pen for cows or horses.

This remote farm can be used in a fantasy or contemporary setting with ease, and why not in some near future or post-apocalyptic settings too.

This is a saucer shaped ship that has bioluminescent lights pulsating on the surface. Its interior is composed of weird ...
