Unfortunately I have to work within design constraints outlined by the editors since the maps need to be accurate to the text. I definitely see where I could make some improvements to spark more visual interest though. Thanks! :)

Unfortunately I can't talk about what will be included yet. Wait and see though. It's gonna be cool. :cool:

Hey guys! Long time no post I know, but I've been super busy working on the maps for WOTC's Expedition to the Demonweb Pits. Anyway, I though I'd post a few recently published pieces from Dragon Magic and see what you think. positive criticism is always welcome. Mike

Thanks! I just might take you up on that. :) Starting from the most recently published; Monster Manual IV, Players Handbook II, Tome of Magic, Red Hand of Doom, Races of the Dragon, Magic of Incarnum, Weapons of Legacy, and numerous small magazine and Map a Week projects. Two of which were the...

It depends on the size and level of detail. On average I'd say about 5 or 6 hours at the shortest and 2 or three days at the longest. Poster maps usually take quite a bit longer though. Sometimes up to a week. As for my psd docs, I think ENWorld might balk at me uploading 50 mb documents. :D...

Hey All, It's been a while since I've posted any new maps so I figured I'd upload a few I did for D&D's Monster Manual IV. I've read some reviews and am aware that a few folks don't think maps belong in monster manuals. What can I say? I just make the art. :o Let me know what you think. Also...
