Fictitious Entry

It's Friday which means it's time for another fridayfiveminutemap challenge.

Several weeks ago I started this map. It went through several iterations to get to the final version. I'm quite happy with this version.

Today's Friday five minute map theme is "Arctic Tundra!" and to return to the fold I plugged in my tablet and gave it a go. I'm really not happy with the map but it gets the mapping juices flowing and gets that tablet back in use.

Encounter Deck kickstarter maps number one and two!

Inkwellideas Dungeonmorph Dice are now available on Think Geek! So cool

A few weeks into my new job and I've got my blog back functioning including RSS - featuring a new map and a new map style!

Some temples are celebrated but some are hidden from the sun and forgotten. The forgotten temple was a place of hidden worship but now hides other mysteries.

I've had a few setbacks but I promised that I would have maps by Monday for Joe and his Creature and Encounter Decks Kickstarter.

No one is quite sure how far and how deep the crypts go but everyone knows this is where they start. A hole in the side of a hill leads into the crypts and form there your wits and your sword will lead you to fortune or death. Fortunately the horror of the depths can be held off for another day.

An underground river has always been one of my favorite places to put in a map. Here the river crossing is a rope bridge.

Why RSI really sucks

New colours and theme (again). Health update (again). New comment tool (again).

Deep underground open water is rare and when found it is not always clean, clear, or safe. But when you see something gleaming in the darkend water it might be time to get a little wet.

Trying out my new light table and a new style. I would love feedback on the new style and the colour palette. I like the feel of the walls when drawing them like this. Not certain how I feel about the end product.

The high stair is a small dungeon that contains a tall spiral staircase leading to the top most room.

playing with pixelmator and making all digital maps. I'm still learning. Trying to figure out how to do a grid that is accurate but not perfect.

An overland map for the first time in a long while. The Sylvan Safehold is a small hold in a forested area on a small peninsula. Easily defensible the safehold is a safe place to collect taxes on ships and patrol the frontier.

Further to my recent experiments I created another all digital map using SketchBook Pro. Feedback makes me better! Let me know what you think.

Adventuring in dungeons is one thing - but all dungeoneers need a way in. This crumbled ruin contains a stairway leading into the depths.

Josephine Smythe comes from a long line of fighters. On her Dad's side there are a half dozen thugs and tough guys. On her Mom's side are generations of soldiers - from the WAC in World War II to the current generation. She is more proud of her mother's side - but she takes after her father's.

A large church with an pool - I'd recommend not swimming laps.

On Day 14 of the expedition we found the Treasures of the Ziggurat. On Day 15 we understood what the ziggurat was for and why the treasures had gone centuries without being disturbed. On Day 16 we ascended.

The portal - inspired by stargate, by the nether portal, by the dark portal, by many other gateways to the unknown this gateway glows with a green light. What adventures and horrors await on the other side?

A Suburban neighbourhood - it might be a friendly place to call home but what secrets does it also harbor?
