Not only is each challenge rating grouping from the 5the edition of Dungeons and Dragons going to be drawn out and coloured by KTech but she is also going to be creating variants of some of the creatures in each pack.

Today I'm going to go over a few changes to my agreements for my work going forwards.
Thankfully nothing much changes on the whole but a few things are going to be made clearer and available to read whenever on my website FAQ and my patreon FAQ over the next few days, barring any edits....

Another Video is out today for my basic mapmaking series!
This one covers Line Art and I try to talk about how to start things up in Photoshop if you want to draw things from scratch! :D
Please let me know if there is anything you would like me to cover and what you think of the videos so I can continu...

Woohoo, this is finally here!
I wanted to draw the entire 5e Monster Manual as tokens for ages! It’s a big time commitment, there are hundreds of monsters and creatures to draw throughout the book and many have great detailed artwork that is kind of hard to translate to my current style.
However KTec...

I took a little time off from colouring the Grimbrand Manor this morning to make some variants of the Sacred Grove map and here is what I came up with! :D
There are three different colours of this map in the files, an autumn version a spooky version and a winter version! All of which should help create some great ...

Oh boy this is a big one :D
I started this on stream with the grand idea to do a spooky abandoned manor for Halloween with custom line art rather than using the building material assets I created recently.. Well that has made a good looking map but it's taken me far longer to finish.
And this map is not done yet e...
2019-10-27 19:08:57 +0000 UTC View PostAs the title of this post implies my website is now updated and shiny!
This is something I’ve been meaning to do for awhile as keeping my website modern, easy to use and updated regularly allows people to search through and download/use my maps and tokens without the long form process and limitations of patreon....

Here are the next set of assets for anyone looking to build houses and rooms for encounters!
They should all match perfectly with the other assets that I've made and you can combine everything together!
Included in this pack are floors, walls, windows, doors, traps, textures and all the elements you need to need t...

Hello everyone!
It's time for our first proper contest!
Make a Map!
The task is simple, if you choose to accept it! Create your own map using Caeora’s Forest, Camp, and Battlefield assets and you might win three custom assets drawn by Caeora himself!
How to enter:
While working on a few different things I put together a few variants of the Dragon Pond map and have a good system going now for doing some more variants of other maps soon as well!
There are three different colours of this map in the files, a spooky blood version, an autumn version and a winter version. All of which s...
2019-10-07 17:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostTomorrow I will be sitting down to go over my list of things to make maps out of. Specifically battlemaps but other kinds of content as well. Although I have a pretty good take on what I'd like to make already and a pretty big list, I really want to see what people want as well.
So!

Here are the next set of assets to expand the set!
They should all match perfectly with the forest assets and the camp assets I've released recently! There are now a huge amount of assets, over 300 with all 3 packs, that you can use to make battlemaps and encounters for yourself and I'm only just getting started... ;) 2019-10-03 17:01:41 +0000 UTC View Post

Here is the final part of making quick maps with the assets that I posted recently!
This video starts to get into a little more nuanced and artistic techniques but they should start to bring the maps together!
I have some plans to do some more videos in the future so if anyone has any feedback then I would love to...

And here is the second part of the series where I talk about the assets themselves in a little more detail.
There is one more part to this little mini series and I will post that tomorrow :)

I've made this little mini series to teach myself some recording basics.

Here are the next set of assets I've been working on!
They match up perfectly with the forest assets I released a few days ago and I’ve made another texture to go with the pack.
These assets started out as your typical tents and sleeping bags etc, but I started to draw a few more tribal and monster l...

I mentioned on Twitter a few weeks ago that I had caught the Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus bug for the now released adventure by Wizards of the Coast.
One of the reasons for that is that I’m playing for Wizards of the Coast in a livestream run by the Great GM! We played our first game on Saturda...

So here are the next few assets I'm doing, once again nice and simple for the time being but these will lead to an even greater vaierty once included with the forest assets.
Included with these assets will be a dirt texture that you can see here as well :)
This is a very mobile, camp like set, with a b...

So this is actually version two of my attempt at making forest assets, the last bunch can be found somewhere far far down in my patreon posts. I was honestly not very happy with them and found every excuse to ignore them.
With these assets however I’m very happy with how they look and combine to create really in...

Well this one has been in the works for awhile… but I’m pretty happy with the results!
This is directly inspired by the Legend of Zelda games, specifically the area where you usually acquire the Master Sword somewhere in a forest (It changes sometimes which is why this is kind of vague haha)
