The Cavern Fungiwood
In this otherwordly corner of the Great Cavern grows a luminescent forest of tall, crowded mushrooms. An ominous statue stands in a stonecut room in the far back. Spooky!

Today's fun map is another set piece for your city - and I think an entire city IS possible with the number of buildings available now - an arcane forge and storefront!
Part three of the Great Cavern is here. This Crossroad is the junction between the cavern's three major tunnels, one of which is filled with frothing water, another with strange fungi, and the last with cages and torture devices. What fun!

2016-05-06 10:48:07 +0000 UTC View PostA companion piece for Tomer Abramovici’s cavern set and upcoming adventure, today's map is the strange Mermaid Inn. Despite the magical aquarium in the room's center, this building can fit well into low or high fantasy games. You can read a few of my ideas in the Read More below:
The second piece to the Great Cavern, an enormous room of cages. Not a bad map for a classic prisoner campaign start, either!
Hi everyone!
I'm currently working on a very large project, and rather than leave you without any content this week, I want to share an excellent map made by fellow Patron Ryan Saunders, who kindly sent a few maps to me along with permission ...

Hi Patrons! And welcome to everyone from DawnforgedCast's flattering video. I have a little freebie for you today picked straight out of the campaign I run.
This is the small village of Ueda, built at the foot of a steep mountain (left). Part way up stands the Ueda palace, where Dragon Lord Ueda Ban resides. Part way down, protected by cliff ...

A collection of bits and bobs with which to construct your own traveling caravan!
This week's video tutorial covers my (current favorite) method for drawing cave walls. In fact, it's exactly the sort found in the Damp Mines set!
2016-03-23 07:55:51 +0000 UTC View PostGrass may not be the most exciting thing, but you can bet on drawing it a LOT if you draw your own maps. In this video, I provide a few tips on keeping it interesting yet uncluttered. Enjoy!
2016-03-15 07:44:24 +0000 UTC View PostThe perfect place to shipwreck or bury your treasures, the tiny Tropical Island.
This week I've drawn up 20 watchtower pieces for you to mix-and-match into whatever style of timber tower you may need.
It feels good to revisit the set piece collection every now and again, and personally I know I'll get some good mileage out of this one.
Another DM's Drawing Guide, this time on how I draw rubble! Essentially, "The 9 minute guide to scribbling."
2016-03-08 10:41:43 +0000 UTC View PostOne of my first maps, only now discovered, reformatted, and uploaded for the first time to the gallery. Despite my primitively drawn trees, it's one of my old favorites!
I'm wrapping up the tree drawing mini-series today with my guide to drawing fallen trees - fun, pretty, but quite tricky! I hope you all enjoy it.

2016-03-01 06:39:30 +0000 UTC View PostIt's a wonder why nobody has built an inn here yet, on this long road between two towns. Packed earth marks the popular pit stop, and the local outlaws know it.
Episode two of the DM's Drawing Guide to trees is up! Aren't they happy looking?
2016-02-23 10:36:25 +0000 UTC View PostHi Patrons!
Though I don't charge you for videos, I still want to share them with you. I'm working on this DM's Drawing Guide series thanks to your constant support and suggestion, so please pat yourselves on the back!

2016-02-01 09:37:03 +0000 UTC View PostAn adventure in the art of drawing water with a pen. The result is a bit more stylized than most of my maps, and comes with a no-lines version too, in case you want something more subtle for your ships to fight over.
Today's oriental themed map is designed as a setting for a 6x4 modular building, but you can quite easily use it for another purpose. I wrote a few ideas down here - enjoy!
In stark contrast to last week's snowy map, today's is a colorful, tropical cove. I'm sure many of you Northerners are dreaming of just such a place right now! (Minus the sea-bandits, perhaps)
Inspired by my longing for cooler weather and a concept provided by DawnforgedCast, this map might lead to a fun sidequest or roadside encounter.
