060 - Imperial Detention Block C2-38

This map was made according to the wishes of one of my long time patrons as an on-going $5 reward. I was asked to do a detention block with some interrogation rooms and to me this sounded like a very useful idea. I decided to design this cell block as a modular unit that could be easily slapped t...

The forbidden scriptures that were saved from the destruction of the temple's library had crucial information about the location of Master Noc'dur hidden tomb.  Master Noc'dur was one of the last Guardians who was able to fold space by manipulating the Light.

Did You Know How Amazing You Are?


I would like to thank you for supporting my work. 

It's been almost a year since I started drawing maps again after a long break of almost 20 years or so. I really appreciate your support because without it I would have probably quit drawing the maps again. But having an aud...

The Dune Bandits rule the great Plains of Rust. They have taken over an abandoned monastery deep in the wasteland. The bandits call it the Palace and it is also the den of their lord.  An evil and savage tyrant of the wastelands who will feed all who oppose him to his vile beasts.&n...

Dune Bandit Lord's Palace (WIP)

I'm working on this map that I should get done and posted on Patreon this evening. I used Jabba the Hutt's palace from the Return of the Jedi as inspiration, but I'll see if I can make this a bit fantasy-ish, so you could use it as some sort of bandit lord's palace in fantasy settings as well. Bu...

Smuggler Base 404

The Smuggler Base you are looking for was not found. Yeah. That's the origin of the name of this map :)  This map started out as a quick doodle on coffee break, but it ended up as a "real" map. My intention was to release this as just a quick doodle, but I got an idea about try...

Testing a new technique

I was about to post this smuggler hideout as a black & white map, but then a got an idea. I quickly bashed together some textures, like in the Halls of the Mimics that I released awhile ago. I have to say that I kind of like the end result. It has the hand-drawn lines and shadows, but the tex...

Buried Under the Twin Suns

During the last #mapvember I made a map of a spaceship buried in snow or ice. I find the idea of something buried into the ground waiting to be found very interesting and this was also one of the first things for me to...

Halls of the Mimics - style test

Hello, I wanted to make a quick test on how to do these maps that look like they are generated by kitbashing various textures and applying layer effects on Photoshop. Well, it was exactly that :)

This map has no greater idea behind it. I just went on and added some rooms and corridors and t...

Colony Outpost

Like most of the other early colony complexes this small outpost is made out of modular units housing a dozen colonists or corporation professionals. The modules are pressurised so that they can maintain higher atmospheric pressure inside the buildings. These units are designed for thin atmospher...

The Icon of Deception

What looks like a dull and ill kept old stone keep hides a beautiful garden and a giant statue made of gold inside its cold walls. But like its outer appearance, everything in this temple is not as it looks.

The Outlaw Artificer's Hideout

Hi all and good to be back from vacation. I did not draw any maps during the holiday, so I already had a couple of ideas on my mind that I wanted to draw right away. 

The first map of this map is a hideout for some outlaw artificers. I thought the artificers could be somekind of alchem...

The Goblin Lair

Here's the first actual adventure map we played through with my kids in our D&D5e summer campaign (although, I have feeling that this campaign will be much longer than the notoriously short Finnish summer). 

The adventurers went to investigate strange thundering noises and lights c...

Map of the Northern Volodor

Here's a map I did as a handout for a D&D 5e campaign I'm playing with my three oldest kids (8, 11 and 13 year olds). 

The adventures take place in the world of Argouna, that we are designing and expanding as we play. Basically this is your typical fantasy world se...

This ship is my first proper blueprint style map ("whiteprint" provided also) and made as a custom map for Kyrinn S. Eis, one of my $5 tier patrons.

- A starship with room for about 40 people.

The Broken Bridge

By a stream running through the woods there’s a small farm with a small two-storied house and a barn with a pigpen and a small cattle pen for cows or horses.

Hive Scout

I've supposed to draw a map of an organic ship for months already, but a few weeks ago I gave it a shot. This was not really in my comfort zone, as I've never done anything like this before. 

This is a saucer shaped ship that has bioluminescent lights pulsating on the surface. Its ...
