Bandit Camp Assets
🕑 Added 2019-06-29 11:52:25 +0000 UTCChangelog: (May 9th 2025) - Updated the Bandit Camp Assets to include higher DPI assets, better naming scheme, higher DPI map, and bonus map variant!
Howdy! I've been hard at work the last few days building a collection of seventy one cowboy-caravan-themed assets, including horses, wagons, tents, and everything in-between.
My game of the month has been Red Dead Redemption 2, and these assets came from some drawing study I did in trying to understand the components of a roaming campsite. If you look closely, you can even find Arthur's own bed in the asset list!
And, as you can see teased above, these assets are shortly coming to the token editor. You only need to wait until July 13th when this post goes public, as I am still working on a few features I consider integral for these assets (more details below). It won't be long until you can custom-color your own horses, rugs, and tents!
Please excuse the file names this time, it's for the benefit of the token editor!
I want to make a habit of importing assets like these into the editor in order to open things up for people not-so-Photoshop-proficient. Starting with these, I also hope to implement default colors; when you load the token it will be pre-colored as above, and if you only want to change the color of the canvas it will only take one color change.
Along with that, I'm working on color swatches so that you can choose from a selection of colors collected by yours truly. This will be especially useful for getting those tricky skin tones right, and also for keeping the art style consistent with the color values.
Another not so obvious change in the works is adding metadata to all these so that I can tell you the intended grid size, have a tag-based search, and give you some nice file names. I'd like you to save these not as "download (6).png" but as "Bandit camp, medium tent (4x3).png" or something similar.
Well, I hope you're all as excited as me! Thanks for your patience, and I'll see you again very soon...
Thanks to you, these assets are released under the CC BY-NC 4.0 license, beginning the 13th of July, 2019.
EDIT:
I've put together a little freebie map using these assets and the Forest Glade battle map. You can find the download links below:

I actually have that exact idea on my list!

Mirriky: Yes, that one. I started using it for all my gaming needs including images of NPCs and such. But I have projector and using that when playing.

Could a future version/expansion of this set be for a "barbarian camp", with other forms of tents and temporary shelters (think yurts, teepees, etc...) plus skulls on spikes, impromptu muddy fighting pits, wooden/bamboo cages for captives and dangerous "pets", etc. Think orc tribes, goliath herds, goblins, gnolls, etc...

Moody!

I've spent a bit of time adding them into Dungeon Painter Studio. It works... okay.

Talk about perfect timing! I had been working on a map for one of the next encounters my players will probably face, and these assets complete it nicely! https://dl.dropbox.com/s/atgpniw1gbblva4/NightWagonCamp.jpg

I am using Maptool for my maps so adding it there is very easy.

I recommend Gimp or Photoshop

What does everyone use to easily add these to maps?
Maxime Durocher

These are some amazing and generous changes. Being able to color swap assets is such a great idea and so helpful. Thank you.

This is absolutely ingenious. Smashing work as always my son.
