As a sort of a warm-up practice for the #mapvember (map prompts & updated website coming soon!) I'm attending Inktober again this year.
I'm going – at least for now – with the 2019-10-04 03:25:55 +0000 UTC View Post
Here's a list of map concepts, which of these you would like to see released next?
I will prioritize the maps based on the votes, and requests from Masterminds and Ultrapatrons will get an extra bump up in the list.

Under the city there is a vast and complex network of catacombs thousands of years old. Mostly these old tunnels are protected and preserved for the future generations as historical monuments, but with the right contacts and keys, the catacombs can be used to move around the city fast and unnoticed.

Under the ruins of the old monastery, there are secret chambers and caves that hide a huge crystal with corrupting magical powers. Living creatures mutate into beasts with inhuman strength, and any dead creature brought close to the crystal will rise again as a soulless undead abomination.
The caves are taken over by a cult ca...
2019-10-01 22:27:35 +0000 UTC View PostHello! When I GM tabletop RPGs, we usually use miniatures and different kinds of battle-mats that can be drawn on with white board markers. I found that at least Deep-Cut Studio offers custom made battlemats with your own design.
Is anyone interested in battle-mat ...

![Coloring a Map: Dragon Lair [Timelapse]](https://img5.samukata.com/storage/5/dq/uw/4e9b88-019e85ab-9edb-74a5-b3f7-8f9be8b1f65e.jpg)
Here's a video of the Dragon Lair map's coloring process. This was actually supposed to be a video with me explaining every step in detail, but I messed up something with the settings. In the end, I think this turned out for the better, as a 10-minute video is probably a bit easier to watch. :D
I hope you like the end result. 2019-09-30 11:31:33 +0000 UTC View Post
A century ago a terrible dragon, Roihuzuamu, burned down and invaded the quiet and peaceful valley of Eloran.
People of Eloran were close friends with their dwarven allies who had moved far from the North to mine the gold and silver from the mountains. Together they built a prosperous city that traded with the Northern Dwarv...

Here are the first two parts of drawing a space cantina battle map.
Hi, everyone. Just wanted to give a quick update on the current situation.
A few days ago the 200 patron goal Dropbox Upgrade and New App Integrations was reached.
This helps me to pay for an upgrade to Dropbox and ensure that I won't be running out of space anytime soon. There are also some other features I'm not so familiar with yet. Let's see if they could be used together with my Pa...

In this video I go through the steps I usually do to clean up a scanned image and make the lines clean. There were actually a few unusual cases with this map, which are good to know when trying to get rid of darker grid lines or when trying to clean up rough line art.
More videos coming soon! Please follow my Youtube channel...

Here's the cargo transport taking shape. I left the interior unfinished, because I'm going to do the interior details on Photoshop after cleaning the line art. We are going to have a test at this today in our Star Wars campaign, as the PC are supposed to hijack this transport loaded with kyber crystals. It's not going to be easy, but when Empire...

Here's a quick draft for a transport I did for our Star Wars campaign. This is going to transport a load khyber crystals and the PCs are going to hijack the ship for the local resistance to trade it for some coaxium (hyper fuel) with the Crimson Dawn.
But, what is the class of this ship, and are there any other interesting details on this...

2019-09-02 19:43:30 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! I thought that I'll share some news and updates on what's going on and how my September looks like so far.
A quick summary here:
This can be a section of a space ship or a space station. It includes a few regular berths (quite spacious, actually), two high-end cabins and one luxury suite, in addition to a common area, a few storage rooms, and maintenance rooms.
Layered PSD files and commercial licenses for this map are delivered separately. 2019-08-31 14:27:35 +0000 UTC View Post
This truck is delivering a special cargo. Something out of this world. It is contained inside a trailer equipped with strange devices, some of which look quite mundane, but they are plugged into thick bundles of wire.
Besides the equipment keeping constant electric static and rhythmically pulsating blinks and beeps, there are six peo...

When I started making maps for Patreon I could make a map and release it during a single evening. This is not the case anymore because of certain requirements I have set for my maps. Now a single map can take a week or even two to make.
The reason is partially that I make the maps on evenings and I have longer pe...

Ok. We had a poll in May where we voted for the first map project and the winner was Mooncore. For this post, I did a quick draft of Mooncore, or of how it could look like.
The idea is to make a bunch of maps that are all tied to one location or theme. I have written a short introduction of Mooncore below, but besides some loose idea...
