Stone Hand

caeora post Stone Hand from patreon

Well this map has some really annoying backstory that I will try and explain in this post..

On monday I spent some time making a really nice Dirt Texture (That you can find in the downloads) I thought it would be nice to do some dried out areas, shrublands and generally drier areas not normally covered in most battlemap...

Creature Packs: Goblins

caeora post Creature Packs: Goblins from patreon

KTech here again! :)

After finishing the CR1/4th pack I thought to myself, "hmmm... theres only 2 goblins in the entire monster manual... thats no where near enough goblins!"

So a rather self indulgent pack here because goblins are just so fun!

There will also be a complete pack with variants coming soon for...

Lovecraftian Assets

caeora post Lovecraftian Assets from patreon

Well this is a terrifying update to my little asset library :)

The basics for this pack were worked out a few months ago when I was working on the Grimbrand manor but now I've had the chance to sit down and work on these and include more detail... I'm so happy with how they turned out! 

There are a ton of gre...

Jyuratodus

caeora post Jyuratodus from patreon

Another massive monster from the Monster Hunter World game is now done! The muddy fish monster, Jyuratodus! This is a monster that might not be very pretty or colourful but it was a wonderful change of pace to draw something more muted like this. 

It was also quite a challenge because in the game this monster is us...

Red Pyramid

caeora post Red Pyramid  from patreon

When I was making the desert asset pack recently, I had a few ideas for making a few newer maps with those assets and this is one of those ideas! A pretty interesting take on a dungeon and map combo which you can use to really terrify your players..

The idea that some kind of creature is part of structure like this seem...

The third Monster from the Monster Hunter World Game is now done, mostly finished up on stream yesterday and ready to lick players with its huge toxic tongue :D

This monster is one of the more fun concepts that you could introduce into a TTRPG game because you can have all sorts of fun coming up with mechanics that spre...

The Polar Sea

caeora post The Polar Sea from patreon

This was a rather spur of the moment decision and ultimately I decided to make this map because I started watching "Our Planet" on Netflix and the images inspired me!

I paused the show and I think it will be a good exercise for me to try and draw more environments from it later on as well. I've always wanted to try and ...

Here is the second monster from the Monster Hunter World series of tokens that KTech did the lineart and base colour for and then I detailed. It's the very cute and egg hoarding Kulu-Ya-Ku! :D 

The plan is to release these one by one, so I'll be working on these during streams most likely! were also planning to wor...

Candy Assets

Normally I like to make at least one map, before I release the assets. That's the plan anyway but occasionally I think if I just put these things out there and see what people come up with!

I made these after Lilawoan on my discord asked if there were any candy type battlemaps out there.. and after I couldn't find anyth...

Great Jagras

caeora post Great Jagras from patreon

KTech has been playing  Monster Hunter World recently and it contains some amazing massive monster fights and we both thought making those into tokens to spring upon players would work really well! We both worked on this, KTech did the line art and basic colour, and I finished up the details :)

But this first monst...

Desert Assets

New Assets! Wooo!

Normally I like to make several maps with the assets before releasing any kind of pack, and that was certainly the case with the forest assets but.. I decided I might want to move a little more quickly and then make maps that popped into my head later with the packs that have already been released.

This is the first of a few little desert maps I’m putting together, a very basic and yet very usable oasis map! The deadly aspect comes into play when you take a closer look at the water..

Grimbrand Manor (Lighter Variants)

caeora post Grimbrand Manor (Lighter Variants)  from patreon

After quite a few people asked me for a lighter version of the Grimbrand map I decided it might be a good idea to actually get on and do it :P

In the download you will find three different variants of the Grimbrand Manor map and I have to say the snow version is my favourite haha

New Year, New Schedule & Feedback Poll!

Hello everyone! Happy New Year!

I have now been making maps and other bits for two years (ish) and in 2019 I had what can only be described as a fantastically successful year. I made a map for Critical Role (Probably the highlight of last year actually), I was part of a Kickstarter that made €421,985, and Project Deio...
