The end of the chase, the players have to face the orc patrol with the danger of falling a far way down behind them.

With this map i tried out the blur function of Fractal Mapper.

This pass is usually the first open route from Icewind Dale over the Spine of the World, and opens early in April (The route around Kuldahar pass may stay closed all the way out into early June). Unfortunately, this year it is guarded by a particularly starved Hill-giant.

My second attempt at using shadows, this time trying to remake daylight and terrain. Made using Dundjinni, then applied shadows in Photoshop.

A snowy landscape created using Dundjinni, if memory serves me right. Wagon tracks toward the city, and orcs waiting in ambush behind the bushes.

A Dundjinni remake of the "Something's Cooking" adventure from WotC.

The basement of Luskan's The Cutlass. Here you can hire a meeting room for those shady businesses, and if you pay a few gold more, a door-watch is included to keep curious people from accidently wandering in on you.

Other features include a escape route. If you have to take the "backdoor out", this is the way. You enter the basement on the left of the map, and on the right is the path to freedom. Except that it is guarded by an iron golem blocking the doorframe, and only letting people pass if they place 5 gold in its open palm. Read more »

The Cutlass, the most well-known tavern in Luskan. Famous for its many violent brawls. I recommend you to stay away unless you are looking for a fight.

Should you anyway want to enter, remember to leave your weapons at the guard by the door. Should someone spot you carry a weapon inside, they would probably bring out their own hidden weapons as well, and the result would be quite bloody.

A Dundjinni remake of "The Cutlass", where i tried to stay as faithfully as i could to the book "Volo's Guide to the North".

The home of a few Hill-giants in the Evermoors. Only one of the giants are home at the moment, but the two others are soon arriving from the south, wading trough the swampwater after a successfull hunt for food. If someone was to kill these giants, it would certainly draw the ire of their commanders, the frost-giants who have taken over the Evermoors.

My first attempt at making a battle-map fully in Photoshop, where i tried experimenting with the bevel and emboss layer style to create the illusion of height.

The city is under attack, and the attackers have just breached the southern wall! Hold it until reinforcements arrive!

My second Photoshop mapping attempt, with the focus of getting the grass and ground textures right. I also tried out a Compass Rose (self made) and a distance ruler.

Dougan's Hole, one of the Ten Towns of Icewind Dale. Named so because the town is just a mud-hole in the ground. And was probably first colonised by a man called Dougan. Also called Mud-Town because when the snow melt in the summer, it reveals a knee-high layer of mud which every resident have to wade trough. Therefor most people living here actually hates the summer-months.

I wanted my players to start in a tavern in Ten Towns, in a particular less-friendly town, and Dougan's Hole was created. Made using Fractal Mapper.

An old dwarven outpost on the northern side of the Spine of the World (better known as the Icewind Dale) . A tower on the outside, and once there was solid doors at the entrance, but only the hinges remains. To the left of the map is a secret room which was used by the dwarves to fire crossbows against anything on the outside. A pit-trap is on the inside, and is usually hidden. Read more »
