The Deep Passing

The Deep Passing

Hello all! 

Excited to share with you a map that is serving a few different functions: 

a) The Deep Passing is the entrance to the tomb of Werstonos, a funerary deity in our homebrew campaign setting. This tomb (as you can likely imagine) is going to be the location of the next dungeon I'm designing to be released next month. Yay for interconnected maps!<...

Goal Reward Choice

Heya people!

So per our last poll I am currently hard at work on our next Public Assets Pack for Cities! However since we're also experimenting with having those larger asset packs release more frequently in the paid post stream, we are in need of deciding upon what should take their place for now ...

Hey folks! I made a very rookie mistake this time around and managed to delete the version of the file that I had after I had added in the blood and dirt scrapes on the map. So the version you'll download here is without those, sorry!!

Krahlbor's Teeth

Hello all!

Pleased to present you with Krahlbor's Teeth (crawl-bore), a dangerous and rarely used trade route characterized by its numerous jagged spires of rock. These rocky forms are often thought to resemble teeth by passing merchants and smugglers alike, hence their name (as well as borrowing from the name of a storied leviathan).

The pack below contain two variations o...

Patron Feedback 2019

Hello all!

Last month I sent out what will likely now be an annual practice of a patron-wide 'survey' of sorts that asked a variety of questions to help me better understand how to cater my efforts towards what you all actually want. I'm happy to say that nearly 350 of you were kind enough to participate in that survey and in the interest of transparency I now share the b...

Magic Item Assets Pt. 5

Magic Item Assets Pt. 5

Hello all!

Happy to announce that with this post we've wrapped up our Magic Item Assets series! I decided to compile all of the assets from the 5 portions in the above image (because it's more fun), but you can see the ~60 new ones towards the center of the collection. This last part includes a selection of staffs, wands, swords, and some casual, fun things to randomly put in fro...

The Sunken Glory

Hello all!

In continuing with our naval theme of recent I present to you: The Sunken Glory. A trading ship that was known as The Striking Glory prior to its demise, this vessel was sunk in part with the help of a kraken priest (VGtM) and their minions and continues to be used as one of their underwater bases of operation. 

As usual, I have inc...

Expiring Posts (June 2017)

With the end of the month drawing near and after a series of new maps  introduced, the maps that have grown older than 2 years will expire  from the Patreon page to become only available on the website. To ensure that all of you have plenty of notice and opportunity to download those expiring maps before they're no longer available, I've collected the  links for them bel...

Waylorn Lodge

Waylorn Lodge

Happy to present to you all the Waylorn Lodge! This is a classic roadside inn/tavern that in our setting is ran by a spry, warm gnome grandmother (you'll note the smaller bed in the office on the ground floor). I imagine it having a sort of B&B tone to its mood and ongoings. There are rooms for lounging, a quaint dining room where meals are served, a piano for those musically incli...

Clash Amidst Clouds Photoshop File

Clash Amidst Clouds Photoshop File

Hi $3+ supporters! Because I originally made the textures for this map set at 22x17 inches instead of 8.5x11 this Photoshop file is HUGE! (468mb). Or at least, too huge for patreon to host the file on their site I guess. So if you want to download the file I have it available on my google drive for you View Post

Clash Amidst Clouds

Clash Amidst Clouds

Hello all!

One of the requests I've gotten previously (and continues to be reinforced as people fill out our patron survey) is for more sci-fi content, larger texture fields, and in particular a few people specifically mentioned recently.. airships! 

So with those requests in mind, this little packag...

Complete with several sets of ship templates for you to fill and customize with the 50+ prop assets and new wall set I've made especially for these ships. Not to mention the two additional, full ...

Tavlinda's Glade

Hello all!

For the first battle map of this month I bring you Tavlinda's Glade, another map in my recent line of 'widely applicable, but still containing interesting story seeds' (I need a better title I think).

As I consider what are commonly found story points that DMs might need to build an encounter around, it seemed like an interaction with a fey creature might be righ...

Magic Item Assets Pt. 4

Hello all!

As you can see, part 4 of our assets series visualizing the magic items from the Dungeon Master's Guide has a couple of... larger centerpieces. The normal fanfare from the earlier parts of the series is there (Robes, Rods, Shields, Potions, random scimitar, etc.), but I also went about creating visuals for the manifestations of two varieties of Qua...

Paper Miniature Preferences

Heya folks,

Last week I published a set of paper miniatures for the Xanathar's Guild Hideout map; you can read that post's description for a little more context as to why I chose to make a set of paper miniatures now and and why for that particular location.

Hello all!

In celebration of the Ghosts of Saltmarsh being released by Wizards of the Coast (and as I'm slowly putting the pieces together for our Ships & Sailing assets pack) I present you with Bottleneck Island!

At battlemap scale this 'island' is obviously rather small, but I hoped could serve as a good location if your players ever have to 'wash ash...

Xanathar's Guild Hideout Paper Miniatures

Hello all!

So, this one's a little out of left field! Story time: the first map that I put together (after you all voted between locations) was Xanathar's Guild Hideout. Like the more recent Vault of Dragons, this was a new envisioning of the black & white, simpler maps included in the official...
