I have mentioned this in the past, but to quickly summarize. I know some people would prefer to have things like roofs, building floors, vehicles, and other optional/moveable/layer...

Mead Hall Map Pack - Wanderer +

We approach the final harvest as winter nights fall upon us. We take shelter inside the hall, a cup of strong mead in the horn and a steaming leg of meat in our paw. Our friends and family surround us as we tell tales of old and the monsters that lurk out in the dark. A season to be thankful and make merriment is upon us. Hail traveler, come war...

Mead Hall Map Pack - Pathfinder & Trailblazer

Experimented with a couple of things in this map set. Played around with using blend mode assets to enhance the textures on grass and snow. So here you should see a lot more going on in those areas than in the past. I think it turned out well.

The other thing was adding highlights around intense light sources. Take a close look at the obje...

How Do You Use My Maps?

I'm looking to add some more content to the catalogue and wanted to see how you actually use my maps in your games. This will help me narrow my scope to focus on what most people need.

I am currently considering pre-optimized Foundry VTT modules as a benefit for some patron tiers. 

Let me know that you think!

Cheers,

Hunter's Retreat Map Pack - Pathfinder & Trailblazer

Focused on two things in this one, roads and log based walls for structures. I think I am starting to get my roads/path nailed down. I have been very pleased with the last few. Trying for the look of blended in some areas, while having areas look like grass overgrowth. I also tried out a new walling/roofing system using logs. Going for a more ru...

Seasonal Map Pack - Fall 2022

Hey there Trailblazers,

I know it has taken me a while to get this to you. I am still in the stages of developing what exactly these packs will include. I started by building a little GM story kit based on a story arc in my home game. Me and my players had fun with this one so I thought I would share.

While I enjoyed running this one...

Lich's Barrow | Halloween Pack 2022

Took the Barrow Tomb Map Pack and gave it an even more wicked twist for Halloween! Tried to create a small lair for a lower power lich. Large pile of bones at the bottom of the pit, collected bodies, creeping fogs, throne built of bones, what more could a growing lich need?

Happy Halloween Everyone!!

Barrow Tomb Map Pack - Pathfinder & Trailblazer

My first attempt at a more classic dungeon in my style. You all asked for it and I hope its what you were looking for. 

Played a lot with proper lighting in this one without there being any actual light in the base version. Still working on getting the right amount of darkness in unlit rooms without obscuring everything. Also, I have ...
