Forest Explorer [90x90]

Returning to some old favorites of mine, the month's feature is a monster of a map. The largest I have ever painted...and not something I'll undertake lightly again. I've been getting out and about doing some winter hiking and plein air painting and had the itch to create another wilderness set...dreaming of warmer temperatures sunshine, and green things.

The entire painting was designed to be 9 individual 30x30 squares of wilderness exploration. Unlike previous modular packs, this one does not include the cropped versions of the map. It is instead, 10 variants several thousand squares of encounter space. Explore this environment in one giant story arc; or cut it up as you see fit to use in a variety of random encounters. It also makes a great stage for some length skill challenges.

This set was a HUGE undertaking in terms of file size. Unlike previous "modular" sets, I chose to not cut each section up into a separate map. Doing so created some monster file sizes, but also preserved a uniform quality in the compressed image that wouldn't be easily possible with cropped selections. It also allows you for easier customization in what sections to crop. Simple chop the master file instead of stitching smaller ones together and then cropping.

Patrons can find the downloads for their packs right below. Like all other releases, each zip file pack contains gridded and no grid versions of each variant in both 200ppi and 140ppi formats. For those on lower end machines: There will be cropped versions available over the next couple days as I transfer the files to a less cranky computer.
