Anyone else use Notion for campaign notes and session prep? I’ve finally got a format figured out (drawing inspiration heavily from SlyFlourish’s Lazy DM methodology) that leverages some neat features in Notion databases, as well as being aesthetically pleasing while reducing visual clutter.

SEWER HIDEOUT

Finally got around to publishing this map on DriveThruRPG - perfect location for your party to infiltrate a thieves den or wage battle with a gross, watery beast.

Some work-in-progress shots of an isometric map I started AGES ago, but have recently dusted off in order to finish!

Hand-drawn on Procreate.

Made a very generic - but very versatile - map a little while ago. You can grab the gridless and night versions over on DriveThruRPG (link below). Enjoy!

If anyone remembers a one-shot by Winghorn Press called "Horror at Havel's Cross", I remade the Temple of Doresain map from it in my own style (plus much higher resolution). If you wanna copy, it's on my DriveThruRPG page, as a Pay-What-You-Want title, 🔗 below.

Otari Fishery Basement 2 - Timelapse
youtube.com/shorts/Xz_if...

Wanted to remake the Otari Fishery Basement (from Pathfinder 2e's Beginner Box) in my own style for an upcoming campaign in hoping to rub, thought I'd share a time-lapse of the process.

Currently mapping out a Pathfinder 2e campaign I’m hoping to run soon.

1st image is “Province” scale (hex = 6 miles), red highlighted section shows the focus of the 2nd image which is “Township” scale (hex = 1 mile). 3rd image is little town icon 🙂

For anyone interested, I have a small series of map making tutorials for making a cave battle map - using GIMP, but could apply to Photos hop or Procreate no problem as well:

Throwback to this little isometric number I made some time ago, as I look back through my Procreate gallery.
