Stern's Lighthouse (Supporter)

Taking notes from the poll I ran last weekend, this week is something different. Main post will be up shortly!

Wildcard Poll & Idea Submission Stuff

Morning! I wanted to do a poll on this idea. I'm pretty sure the more unifed monthly themes are appreciated for the sake of utility, but after doing it for a few months I feel like it might be good to reduce the themed maps to three per month and have one be a wildcard. This would give me some space to fit in the str...

Gatehouse Bridge (33x22)

Good ... afternoon! Continuing with the greeco-roman canal-sorta city theme thing, this week's map is a city bridge over a gorgeous river with gatehouses on either side. Balconies attached to the guardhouses give a potential point from which to leap over onto the bridge, and a lowered dock on the left side grants easy access ...

Gatehouse Bridge (Supporter)

New map's here! Main post with details will be up as soon as I'm done uploading the files.

Boston & Surrounding Metropolitan Area (Fallout 4)

I'm allowed to have fun too, right? I made this about a week ago while pondering running a modified Fallout 4 campaign. Unfortunately, my friends either don't like Fallout or don't like it in the context of a role-playing game (because things like Bloatfly's biology or radiation burns are a lot worse when you have to deal wit...

Six-Pillar Street (17x33)

Aha. Last week's poll turned up "Marble cityscape", and it wasn't until after it won that I realized I didn't really know what I had meant when I wrote it down. I ended up settling on a greeco-roman sort of aesthetic. (I almost did an aqueduct in a more rural setting, but depending on how closely you want to stick to 'city'.....

New map's finally ready! Main post will be up in a bit.

Snowdrift Cave (17x22)

Good morning! This week's map is a snowy cave carved into a mountain, spiraling down into a watery chamber.

• Three entrances to the cave - two wooden rocks and a third entrance with bright light spilling through - allows usage either as a crossroads or as a standalone chamber.
• If you want to use the map un...

March Theme Poll

I'm sorry I'm late on this. It was meant to launch last Sunday, but I slipped up and forgot about the submission box. Still time before next Sunday, anyways.

• Everyone can vote on as many options as they want.
• The one with the most votes come next Sunday will be the theme for the month of March! All maps i...

Glacier (28x20)

This week's map has the most straightforward title I've ever given a map - it's a glacier. What more could you want? How about a glacier with caves carved into it, with winding icy pathways, with a big watery glacial lake of questionably-tolerable temperature? How about the most gorgeous mountains I've ever drawn?

Glacier (Supporter)

Delicious ice. Download below, main post soon!

Glacier - Preview

Taking variant ideas for this. Thinking so far:

• Giant ice float/island in the center
• Shadowy monster frozen in the glacier
• Camp setup to unfreeze said monster
• Bunch of caves in the glacier cracks? Maybe include that by default.
• Frozen lake

Also, some dire penguins: 2021-02-15 19:15:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Mountain Monastery (25x20)

A majestic structure, built on an artificial plateau high in the mountains. Light streams through glass windows, filling red halls with brilliant light. Are the inhabitants hospitable? Or do their cellars contain secrets indescribable?

I think this map probably took the longest to draw of all the maps I've ever done, bu...

Mountain Monastery (Supporter)

Whoo, 30 frantic hours later and it's finally finished. I'll have the main post up in a bit.

Sketch Preview - Mountain Monastery

This is just a preview of what I'm planning this week. This is based pretty heavily off of Paro Taktsang, or the Tiger's Nest monastery in Bhutan - and more generally, on Tibetan architecture.

Mountain Steppe Stream (36x36)

Augh, my back. I mean, good morning! Febuary's Patron map theme poll turned out as 'cold mountains', so that's what we're doing this month. This week's map is a cold stream running down a rocky mountain. It actually isn't much of a steppe at all, but I only just realized that as I was typing this. Oh well.

Out here in t...

Some early drafts, and also a frogge

Just a bit of fun. I'm playing with coloring and shading my sketches, to give myself a better feel for composition. These are a couple of the drafts I've done for the next map. What would you guys like to see in a rocky mountain steppe like this?

Also, I was challenged to draw a frog without using a reference. I've neve...

Sand Tombs Pack (Free)

Hey, January is almost over. How'd that happen? Here's a 100% free map.

This one's a bit of a followup to last week's Pyramid's Gates v2, now featuring the interior of the pyramid! And what's more, I made a fai...

Febuary's Monthly Map Theme Poll

Good morning! This is the first monthly map theme poll, going for Febuary. Rules are simple.

• Everyone can vote on as many options as they want.
• The one with the most votes come next Sunday (the 30th) will be the theme for the month of Febuary! All maps in the month will revolve around the theme somehow. 2021-01-24 18:33:59 +0000 UTC View Post

The Pyramid's Gates v2 (40x30)

Far across the lone and level sands lies great temples built from limestone and sandstone - and though they lie in ruins today, they once rose far out of the desert with heights unmatched by any modern civilization.

This is a free map that I started work on with the intentions of re-drawing one of my earliest maps - the...

The Pyramid's Gates v2 (Supporter)

New (free) map! I'll have the main post up in a minute. Download's below.

Quick edit: Whoops, accidentally hit publish too fast and forgot to attach the zip. Fixed.

The 2020 Asset Pack, Redrawn

Two weeks later, and it's finally finished! This is a free pack containing almost every asset I've drawn over the last year, redrawn and touched up to match my current ability - a grand total of just over 500 assets. I decided to merge the modern and futuristic assets in with this pack, since...

The Complete Modern & Sci-Fi Archive

Contained in this 7z archive linked here is the entirety of the modern and sci-fi maps I've drawn over the last year in one place. It's a total of 22 maps - around half of the total I've drawn overall, I think. So...

Update!

Morning! It turns out that this is way too big a project to have finished in one week. But hey, despite a busy schedule, I've made a good bit of progress. Here's a before-and-after image of a fraction of the stuff drawn so far, and some other miscellaneous stuff. Some of these assets are super old - that fallen tree is someth...

2021! Changes Planned

December is over, so it's a new year. I've put together something of a plan for reworking my setup here, based on what I've learned over the last year. Some of these are big changes, so they demand some detail.

Major Changes

Narrower Focus

I'm not going to be making sci-fi or modern conten...

Hoenn Region w/ All Anime Locations (Free)

I know I'm On Break™ for the month, but I received a neat commission request from someone who wanted to see a followup to the Sinnoh map I drew a couple of months ago - and I had been wanting to do another region for some time, i...

Transparent Skyqueen Images

Someone requested a cropped version of an older map, the Skyqueen, that could be overlaid atop other maps. That's what this is! I feel kinda dumb for not including this in the initial release, actually. Anyways, all three decks are included. Go nuts.
