The Glowing Crater Battle Map
🕑 Added 2020-03-31 15:57:30 +0000 UTCSomething carved a path through the night sky of last night and now lies in a pit in the meadows. It glows, though the color is almost impossible to describe; and it was only by analogy that you could call it color at all...
This new battle map features a gentle incline up to the glowing crater where some magical or extraterrestrial event has taken place. Energy arcs out of it and seems to discolor the grass about it. Surely something must be done?
It's no secret that this map was inspired by The Colour out of Space! The story had been on my mind and I thought a fiercely glowing crater would be an exciting feature in a fantasy campaign. This is the result!
What horrors are awakening in your mind? Is this a magical rupture, a fallen star, or something else? How might the energy factor into an encounter? Let's brainstorm in the comments! :)

It was meant to be!

Alistair's suggestion is a good one! You can use them directly with a virtual tabletop (Roll20, etc.) but I recommend learning some basic image editing skills, as it's much the same process for much better results. I recently made a video guide that you can check out here: https://2minutetabletop.com/how-to-custom-dungeon-map-photoshop/

I'm using them in Dungeon Painter Studio to build maps for Roll20. Simple tool to learn and I'm really happy with what I've been able to build so far.

I've been following you for a few years now. Amazing content. I have a dumb, dumb question. I see the "Assets" released by you and other creators. How are people utilizing these? Would one need to know how to use Photoshop (or Gimp) to make use of them?

Wow Ross! They're awesome! I also really enjoy the latest series of Spell Scroll Shop, the Vineyard and the Cultist Lair. Those map are STELLAR! I love the vibrant color and the variant version. I'm very happy with my Patreon update! Keep them coming!
