Your 2-Minute December Update

Hello, and welcome to another new month! I feel like I say that every week, but my calendar does indeed say December.

Here is a quick summary of our November 2022 Patreon release:

The Stone Quarry

A stone quarry has been dug haphazardly into the hillside, and circumstances now threaten to flood it completely!

This map began as one of my large-scale 'remasters' of old maps – this time the Abandoned Quarry – but soon developed into something much more complex. It was a lot of fun to basically make it up as I went, smacking down wooden walkways anywhere I thought they might be even slightly practical.

It all came together when I added the central pillar, w...

The Banshee Bridge

A crumbling stone bridge spans a ravine lit by an eerie glow. Who, or what, might dwell in the castle on the other side?

Connor Johnston (CocosTreasuryOfTokens) brings us another gorgeous, threatening map! This time, a crumbling bridge and perilous drop doubtlessly guarded by some soul or specter.

I could see this map passing as the entrance to a vampire castle, a recently-besieged dwarf fort, or some ancient, sealed temple. You might even chop off the no...

The Rocky Desert

A sandy desert interspersed with withered trees and low, rocky formations.

Rootyful dove back into the desert theme this month to create this sandy clearing. It's been some time since we've worked on what I call an 'everyday encounter' map. Though we're making more and more points of interest, sometimes you just need an iconic desert map!

This map perfectly reminds me of the deserts of Kenshi, a game I thoroughly enjoy. It makes me wonder what sort of bui...

Your 2-Minute November Update

Hello again, and happy November! It's getting into my favorite part of the year now, where the weather gets chilly and the leaves all turn yellow and red. There's no better time for bundling up with some tea and drawing some maps.

This past October we made some cool stuff, if I do say so myself. Connor and Hikaru both created multi-layer maps that expand upon existing (already huge) maps, and I tackled a complex series of stairways that resulted in a very interesting ma...

The Medieval City Streets

A number of alleyways converge on a cobbled road enclosed by timber walls and colorful rooftops.

Connor Johnston (@CocosTreasuryOfTokens) has expanded his recent City Center with a cluster of homes and alleyways adjoining to the south. (I will include both downloads below for good measure).

As before, each of these buildings include interiors too!

The Arena of Earth

An ancient stepwell long gone dry, now the training arena of a legendary monk.

Troy and I have been cooking up another encounter write-up with a renowned martial artist – earth flavored this time – and this is the arena we have designed for them.

The inspiration came from India's stepwells, and Chand Baori in particular. Being surrounded by carved stone with one's bare feet on the hot sand... It seems like just the place for such a monk.

The Shipyard Warehouse

A large storehouse for the various cargo that comes and goes through this busy port.

Hikaru is the architect behind this charming map! It's another subject that has been on our todo list for a long time, and Karu has gone above and beyond by carefully linking it up with my old Shipyard. (I'll include both maps in the Downloads section).

A New ‘Jungle’ Variant for our Shifting Swamp Battle Map

This is a small, free bonus post: a pleasant palette swap of an old map from 2017!

Every now and then I like to revisit an old map and give it a unique  coat of paint. This week it’s the Shifting Swamp, a map from all the way  back in 2017! I was almost certainly working on this one in-between my  job at the supermarket and playing Pokémon Go.

Back then I gave it a dark ...

The stylized isometric map of the school grounds of a grand wizarding school complete with towers, halls, and sports field.

Connor Johnston (CocosTreasuryOfTokens) has been working over the last month to bring us this intricately-detailed isometric map, and isn't it charming? With this in front of me I can easily imagine myself looking down on this world while perched on a broomstick.
