Hades' Throne Room (34x22)
🕑 Added 2021-11-12 19:00:06 +0000 UTCGood morning! Remember the Greek theme from the poll? I did. Here's a shot at a throne room for Hades/Pluto, our favorite god of the underworld. It was remarkably hard to find actual sources on his preferred decoration, so I just made something up.
The throne is huge. It ought to be occupied by someone of equal stature ... or perhaps it's just enchanted? Maybe whoever sits on it grows to match its apparent size. Wizard of Oz-type stuff. Roman temples were stuffed to the brim with everything they could to get you believing in their god. Statues painted with lifelike or brilliant paints, incense and herbs in the air to activate your senses, blazing fires - they served a purpose in procuring a terrifying illusion.
I digress. List of variants is in the images above, including a more traditional fire-and-brimstone hell etc.

Notes
I'm going to be suspending December (31st)'s payment cycle and taking December off this year like last year. So there won't be a theme suggestions box or poll this month! Just a heads up.
Drawing rock lines is annoying. I can't make them into assets like I can structural walls so I have to draw everything by hand. It does look nice, though. If they were assets then they'd probably look like Dungeondraft's, where it's obvious it's just a cliff strip or something. What I really want to figure out is how Inkarnate does cliffs. It seems to be a large collection of cliff assets (that are pretty similar to how I draw cliffs) that can be strung together with little obvious overlap. I wonder if the black outlines I use would get in the way of that.
The golden heaven variants are probably my favorite of these, but I like the way the Ice Throne turned out too. The lava in the Hell maps, too.
Thank you for reading and for your support!
