The Casino de Mont Acceaux - Patrons' Edition
So, this is the first casino I've drawn and I've got a question for the gamblers out there: is the carpet ugly enough? I don't know why, but "All Casinos Have Carpet That Hurts Your Eyes" is so consistently true, it could almost be a law of thermodynamics. Anyway, I gave it my be...
The 32nd Cartographic Congress Runoff Vote
We've got three maps making it to this month's runoff. Which one of these am I drawing?Senator Jon proposes the Cobalt Flotilla, a series of ships of various sizes lashed together, forming a large, mobile community of outcasts, tinkerers, pirates, black marketeers and survivors.Senator Evan ...
Black Loch Tokens
You can download these at the bottom of the post.These are tokens for everybody in the Black Loch with a name, plus some Tideborne orogs, Darksong Knights and an assortment of kuo-toa. And a chicken. There are also some alternate versions, most of which are just different skin colors.Here's a li...
Glogdolp - Roofs
Not too much going on in the roof level, but there is one thing I wanted to mention. If you look around the buildings, you'll see little triangles pointing to the walls. Those are to indicate where the doors are. It occurred to me recently that that might be useful for some people, so I decided ...

The 32nd Cartographic Congress Vote
This month, we have eight proposals for your consideration. These range from very down-to-earth to completely insane, in the membrane as well as the brain itself. All of it is fantastic. Buckle your seatbelts, this is a good month for the Congress.Senator Stefan proposes a complex, tangled dungeon o...
Glogdolp: A Kuo-Toa Village
Glogdolp is a kuo-toa village in the Black Loch. The main things they do here are mollusk farming and slaving. That big jail isn't there to deal with widespread naughtiness.Glogdolp is at the tail end of a larger kuo-toan nation called the Bluescale Empire, which stretches down the river to the ...

Kuo-Toa Village - Work-In-Progress
I'm in the middle of coloring this at the moment. There are also a series of underwater caverns below, but I'll show you those when it's done.The main thing the kuo-toa in this village do is capture travelers to serve as slaves or sacrifices. This is one of the reasons people stay at the...
The Chesterboro Arms – Lim the Ogre, Proprietor
This map is a part of the Black Loch.The Chesterboro Arms is a straight up dump. Nobody thinks they'd ever stay at a place like the Chester, but then they find themselves in a REALLY scary part of the underdark. Wherever you look, there are bandits, monsters and all kinds of awful crap that want...

"This place must have some really strong ale. Looks like the whole building is drunk."
The Vale of Pentandra
The Vale of Pentandra was a map chosen by the Cartographic Congress. Ben, who proposed it, wanted an elven city in the rainforest with a magical portal in the center, surrounded by two huge trees arching overhead.The more I've thought about it, the more I like the portal. Sometimes, as a DM, you...

The 31st Cartographic Congress Runoff Vote
The final match of Cartomania XXXI is upon us! Before stepping into the ring, here's what Senator Jon had to say. And here's Senator Anders' response. Better give 'em some room, this could get ugly.Senator Jon proposes a large, opulent wizard's casino, complete with a gaming floo...
Unreasonably Large Brazenthrone Multi-Floor Maps for VTT
I made multiple-floor maps of Brazenthrone's larger chambers a long time ago, but, due to file size limits at the time, I had to chop the chambers into smaller pieces. Well, recently, I got a request for maps with the full chambers and, since Foundry now has a map size limit of 50MB, I went ahea...
The Black Loch: A Map Full of Maps - Everyone's Edition
I'm giving out the patron versions of this map to everybody. There isn't as much stuff as there would normally be since this isn't a battlemap, but I want everybody to have it. You can download it here or at the bottom of the post.For those of you who haven't heard of the Black Loch ...
The 31st Cartographic Congress Vote
We have five fine proposals this month for your consideration. I present them ranked from most to least likely places that you will lose money:Senator Jon proposes a large, opulent wizard's casino, complete with a gaming floor, private tables, and a big, magical vault.Senator Anders proposes a h...
The Great Pyramid of Khufu, depicted before it was looted.
I didn't draw this because it's the most famous pyramid in the world, I drew it because I genuinely think it's fascinating. But exactly what is fascinating about it is hard to convey in a map alone, which is why I made the version above to explain it. There's a mysterious tunnel that...

The Pyramid of Sobek
Sobek is the Egyptian god of the Nile and is depicted here a few times. Fun fact: Sobek was history's first dragonborn. A lot of people thought Wizards of the Coast came up with them in 4th ed. D&D, but the truth is, the Egyptians came up with them around 2500BC. True story, look it up.The botto...

The Deep Spire: Multi-Floor Maps and Tokens
Here are some variant maps of the spire you might prefer. Using one map of the whole thing might be a bit much for some people, but splitting it into two is a lot more manageable.I also made the floor overlay tokens to allow you to display part of the next floor in encounters that might take place n...
The Deep Spire: All Levels
Sorry, this took a bit longer than I expected, mostly due to the Photoshop-crashingly large size of the image file. As soon as the stores open back up, I'm buying a new computer. I bought my current one when my previous machine died and it's still kicking, but it's time for an upgrade. I...

The free Foundry and EncounterPlus modules have been updated!
So, I sent my module to Foundry recently to put on their site and they asked me to tidy up the walls and doors a bit, which I've been doing over the past week or two.Foundry's elite module beautification consultant, Cobalt, was nice enough to help out and give me some tips on walls and light...
The Deep Spire: 6th Level and the Citadel
The last part of the Deep Spire is done and so are the DM notes, which... well, they started off as "notes" but, by the end, they were somewhere between a "lengthy screed" and a "borderline manifesto." Anyway, they go pretty deep into the history of the spire and the people w...

This month's runoff vote comes down to two proposals. I hope you like trees.Senator Ben proposes a Tolkien-esque elven city, with houses and buildings built around giant trees in a rainforest setting. The city features a mystical portal formed from two trees bent together into an arch.Senator Ca...
The 30th Cartographic Congress Vote
Members of the Cartographic Congress, this month, we have seven proposals for your consideration. For no particular reason, I've arranged them in order of elevation above sea level:Senator Zachery proposes a tunnel leading into an underdark city, with inner and outer gates.Senator Joe proposes a...
