Poll results: Wonderdraft/World mapping assets incoming!

After nearly two weeks, it looks like most people want world and region map assets. So I'll be working on that now, and then I will follow it up with sci-fi assets for encounter maps.

Just wanted to give you a little update, and I'll post some images soon of what's coming.

What would you like me to work on?

I'm back working on assets, but I'd love to know what my patrons are looking for. Please let me know what you'd prefer me to be working on, and I'll do my best to accommodate! Feel free to add anything I missed in the comments!

Winter Buildings - Download

Hey folks, as promised, here are the finals for the winter buildings. They are currently in a format for Wonderdraft, but you can just unzip the PNG files and use them in whatever VTT you'd like.

Winter Buildings

Hey folks, it's been a long time. I plan on releasing regular content again now.  The first of which came from a request.  Winter buildings.  I have a few more to finish up, but I hope to post them in the next day or two.

I'll create PNGs for tiles in Foundry, as well as wonderdraft assets.

Update: I'm set up and working once again

Hey everyone, my moving truck arrived over the holidays, and I finally have my drawing setup again! I am getting back to work and will release some content shortly.

Since it's right before the end of the month, I'm going to stop patreon from charging anyone, and then resume normal operation - finally - in January.

Thanks again for all your patience through a tough year.

Update

Hi folks!  I just wanted to give a little update, I've deferred the December charge (so nobody is charged anything). I'll be moving to a new house, and plan on resuming asset making by mid-December.

I just wanted to thank you all for your patience through this difficult time for me.
I hope to have some nice work for you soon.

Hiatus update

Hi everyone, due to my ongoing mental health issues, I'm putting my page in hiatus, which means you will not be billed.  I can't keep charging people in good conscience, and will turn it back on once I start producing work again.

You can remain subbed without worry of being charged, or unsub, and I'll work at building up trust again when I am in a better place mentally.

Take care of yourselves.

Just a small thanks

Hey folks, I wanted to say thank you for sticking with me and being patient. Depression is a very difficult thing to deal with at times.

I'm going to try to put some time aside each day to work on art, so I can start releasing packs again.

Quick update:

Hey folks, after a rather long artist block, I'm working on the sci-fi pack again. Sorry for the delay.  I'm hoping to have it done by this weekend coming.


Cheers!

A small nature pack for Dungeondraft

Here's a nature pack. I needed a path and some small elevations for the grass terrain, so I put this together with some custom color trees and rocks.  I will add to this as I go along, but wanted to make it available to everyone right away.

New and old patrons! Thank you!

Hey, I just wanted to thank all of you for contributing, it's been pretty tough offering up a donation-based patreon, clearly people do better with tiers.

The fact that you all donate when you don't have to really means a lot to me.

Tech sampler pack for Dungeondraft

Custom asset support is live in the latest version of Dungeondraft. You'll need to install it if you want to use this pack. I made this small sampler pack of tech/sci-fi assets to tide people over until I can finish the whole thing!

- 4 floors

- 2 walls

- laser shield doors

- 4 new terrain

- several paths

- new custom color objects

- new lights

Enjoy!

To use this, you'll need to download it to the folder of your choice and go to Assets ...

Effects for VTTs

...And now for something completely different. I've made a few effects to be used in VTTs such as Foundry (and others).  They are in webm format. I'll make a follow up post with PNG-sequence versions.  Enjoy!

Map Monday came late! Hillside bandit hideout

I remade an old pencil map in greater detail, again playing around with textures until I find my groove. I hope you enjoy it!

This hideout is hidden by the naturally staggered cliff-face, so it's difficult to spot unless you know where it is, or are very close.  The perfect place for a start-up group of bandits!

Map Monday! Boulder Beach encounter

Hey everyone, I felt the urge to draw a battlemap and play around with some textures, so I made a map with a lot of different terrain. I hope you like it!  Available in grid and gridless versions, at 70ppi for Roll20, and 256ppi for other VTTs or for print.  I hope you enjoy it!

Battlemap Grass

Hey everyone, I made a tree brush that can be used to paint on grass, for anyone using Wonderdraft as a battlemap.  I also included some grass edge symbols, pictured in the video above.

Village buildings - night variant

Same buildings, but a night variant for anyone that wants it.

Sleepy village buildings - Part 1

Hey everyone, as part of a concerted effort to make an all-round pack for wonderdraft in my style, here are some village buildings that you can use to make regional or detailed maps with.  This is just part 1 of several (but they take a while to make), and will be followed up by a variety of other public buildings like temples, shops, and various accessories.

Chasms 2.0

A long hiatus

Hello, lovely people.  After a long hiatus for personal reasons, I'm back drawing again. I just wanted to drop this sketch as a teaser, I'm working on a set of lava lakes and calderas.

I expect to release a pack of assets next week, so stay tuned!

Modern and Sci-fi buildings!

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you know (in case you hadn't already seen) that some of my assets are now part of the latest build of Wonderdraft!

I made a small series of modern and sci-fi buildings as the 2nd place prize for the previous mapping competition.


I've included them here, in case you haven't updated to the latest version of WD, or you'd like to use them in some other software.

Cheers!

A long awaited update

Hi everyone, I know it's been a little while since I've posted anything, but I can promise you I've been working on some exciting things. News will come soon.  As of right now, I'm back to making assets to post here, and you should see the regular work flowing again in a few days.


Thanks for sticking with me!

Old assets uploaded

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you know that I've uploaded all my old assets (stuff I made before I had a Patreon) to cartographyassets.com.  Rather than make a bunch of posts and spam you, you can find them all there.  

I will continue to post new content here, as well as the cartography assets website, I just wanted to get caught up.

Custom brushes for the latest beta release of Wonderdraft!

For those of you that like to experiment. I've made some stamp and blend brushes to be used in Wonderdraft. They only work in the latest beta release, and support for them will be limited (if there is any at all).

Make sure to unzip this in your top level Wonderdraft folder, as opposed to in the assets folder as usual.


Not all brushes are pictured above.

Crystal formations!

Edit: I had to fix some of the draw modes on the crystals - new .zip

I had forgotten that I had drawn these crystals, so here they are. They were the first in a series of geological elements I was planning.


Use them as obelisks, places of worship, or just some crazy arcane energies!  Paintable with the land brush so you can customize them to your needs...

Summer Battlemap assets!

File updated! I fixed a folder name and also included paintable rocks!

It's winter where I am, so I thought I'd drop some summery assets for you. Trees (both premade and paintable), shrubs, rocks for nature.  I've also updated my buildings to make them paintable, and added a set of modular roads.


Let me know if I've missed anything!

Tactical war symbols!

This was made by special request, some custom colour symbols for tactical battle reenactments in Wonderdraft (or any mapping program).  This asset pack is half symbols, half paths.

I hope some of you will find it useful, it was based on symbols used in WW1 tactical maps.

Space... the final frontier.

So, it's been a little while. Thanks for being patient while I dealt with real life.  Now back to fun things, like assets!

This is version 1.0 of the space pack. I wanted to add more to it, but I thought it better to release it now, and iterate in the future. That way at least something was available.

I have a lot of cool (I think) plans for this, so keep an eye out, and I will update it soon.

I've also included a theme file, so that you can load up the starfield eas...

I'm back at it! WIP space pack

Hey everyone, I'm back at drawing and playing catch up. I thought I'd post a small preview of my space pack/theme.  This is one of the early tests, I've iterated on these planets since then.

This will be packaged as an entire theme for Wonderdraft, but as usual, the assets will be usable in other mapping software as PNGs.  Keep an eye out for the release in a couple of days.  Check out the colour variations in WD:
