Mesoamerican City Gates (34x22)

Hey hey, people. This week's map is May's belated wildcard, which is based on a bit of confusion over one of the theme entries last month! But it turned out nice, so that's good. It's a mesoamerican-inspired city wall surrounded by floating gardens - chinampas! These are large mats held together by woven reed walls around the edges and tall, thi...

June Monthly Map Theme Poll

Wow, it's time already. Time is moving too fast and I don't like it. Rules:

• You may vote for as many map themes as you want. The one with the highest vote total come next Sunday will be the map theme for June.
• Being the map theme means that three of the four maps I draw in June will revolve around the theme in some way (the ...

Overgrown Mesoamerican Tomb (34x22)

Good morning! Here's something a little bit more crypt-like, if you thought the graveyard month was missing out on the underground. There's also above-ground variants, too, of course.

This week's map is slightly inspired by the Mesoamerican market I did a couple weeks ago, though I'm not sure it's obviously central-american enough to justi...

Winding Cove Graveyard (20x26) & Destiny 2 Assets

Good evening! This week's map is a shady graveyard in a secluded forest area, based off of an area in Destiny 2. A gash cut into the earth gives way to a drainpipe, splitting the graveyard in two; connected on one side by a grass bridge near the top and on the bottom by a bridge across the runoff channel.

There's variants for your post-apo...

Ultra Radical Concert of Supreme Undeath - Kelfecil's Tales Collaboration

A couple days ago, Kelfecil - a writer and GM I know - released a short adventure segment based on the map I did last week! If you've got the spare change and are interested in pre-written content to drop into games (or are already subscribed to Kelfecil's material), ...

Death Metal Necromantic Music-Powered Airship (22x34)

From on high above the planet comes sailing down a meteorite, carved from green fire and filled with hate - the BARD LICH has returned, with technology incomprehensible and a fuckin' sick guitar.

Good morning! I hope this isn't too far from the graveyard/spooky theme, but I think it'll be liked anyways. This is th...

Doing Fine (A Brief Update)

This is just a notice that I've successfully made the switch to Linux, so everything should be on schedule and there (probably) won't be an atrocious disaster that upsets my map release schedule. Next map will be next week as planned.

I have to say, I'm kinda impressed. Linux isn't so bad, once you get past the fact that installing most pr...

May Map Theme Poll

It's approaching May, so it's time for this again! Rules:

• You may vote for as many map themes as you want. The one with the highest vote total come next Sunday will be the map theme for May.
• Being the map theme means that three of the four maps I draw in May will revolve around the theme in some way (the fourth will be a wil...

Mesoamerican Market (22x17)

Good morning! It's the last map in April, and to finish off the Shops & Establishments theme, here's a whole bunch of shops in the form of a marketplace in a mesoamerican-inspired courtyard. Large flanking walls on all sides provide good locations for observers or snipers, while the tents might provide concealment (if not cover). 2021-04-23 17:01:52 +0000 UTC View Post

Brief Notice

Good morning! This is about the last map for April and scheduling.

I count my map schedule by Saturdays in a month. May has five, so I'll be taking a week off - next week, to be specific. I'm putting together a new and more powerful PC so that I'll be able to do larger maps comfortably again at the new 140ppi resolution I've been drawing a...

Canyon Delta (22x34)

This month's wildcard map got a little out-of-hand. It's a canyon delta! Except it's clearly not a delta, it's just a river mouth. Oh well.

I like doing these outdoors maps. They're flexible, consistently beautiful, I have a lot of material to work with for variations, and I'm really good at painting water and sunlight. This must be how Bo...

Roman Bathhouse (22x34)

Edit: By request, I've attached a reference image containing labels for the function of each room and bath in this map!

Inspired by the bathhouses built by our resident foundation-of-basically-all-European-civilization, I bring you the Roman bathhouse - a public bathhouse built around a natural mineral spring expanded thro...

Supporter Files Master Post

Stealing a trick Cze taught me here. All future map launch posts will have the actual archives uploaded attached to this post, and then they will have a direct link added into the launch post. This will cut down on unnecessary notification spam, reduce the bloat in my Patreon archives, make it easier to download (since you can do it straight fro...

Skyscraper Garden (Free)

Happy Easter Sunday! This lovely skyscraper garden is a commission I finished late last night, and my client graciously allowed me to release the final product publicly for you to enjoy too.

Though intended for a rooftop confrontation with a long-standing foe, I have a feeling this map might be suited to any other sort of meeting as well. ...

Dusty Old Shop & Basement (22x17)

Good morning! Or, evening, as it were - 11:30pm on a Friday night. "Shops & Establishments" won the last theme poll by exactly one vote. Someone must've snuck in an hour before it was set to finish and cast the deciding vote.

Anyways, this week I drew a shop lit by cascading rays of light flowing in from windows. I took issue ...

Dusty Old Shop (Supporter)

New map's finally finished. I'll have the main post up in a bit!

Stuck in a Square World - April Fool's (22x17)

Is it really a joke if everyone saw it coming? Or perhaps you knew there'd be a joke, but you didn't know what it was. Well, the joke is the silliest map I've ever drawn to my memory, which comes with a semi-complete scenario to drop on your players and a couple of monster tokens to go with it.

This 100% free map (whose ar...

The Forum (22x34)

Rounding off the marble city maps this month is a map inspired by none other than the Roman Forum - a big, open plaza with lots of ceremonial pillars and a rostra from which important public figures may proclaim their latest triumphs - or, on a more mundane day, a town crier may declare recent news and events. The forum also served as an integra...

The Forum (Supporter)

Good evening, this is the week's map. I'll have the main post written up in a bit, and until then (and after then, actually), the download link is below.

April Monthly Theme Poll

Good morning! This poll is for the theme of the maps to be drawn throughout April, with submissions harvested from last week's submission box. The rules are straightforward:

• Everyone gets to vote for as many map themes as they'd like to see win.
• The theme with the most votes come next Sunday afternoon will be the theme for t...

Stern's Lighthouse (22x17)

Good morning! I ran a poll last weekend asking if a wildcard map per month was an interesting idea, and it received utterly overwhelming support. So, well, here we are.

This week's map is not a city map, but it is a lovely and quiet lighthouse on a cloudy island inspired by an excellent film called Song of the Sea. There's three levels to ...
