Tabletop RPG Maps
3D Design
I'm a Game Master, 3D designer, and a huge fan of tabletop roleplaying games. While running my home campaign, I discovered I really enjoyed creating 3D maps for our combat encounters. Finding new ways to challenge my players using the environment has become a fun way to find inspiration for creating new encounters.

My mind jumped to 3D, where I could have a lot of control over the environment's designs, textures, and lighting. I really wanted to make these maps feel cinematic and immerse my players into the story as much as possible.
The Solution

Most of the maps began as a quick doodle on a Post-it note. Then from there, I would jump into Blender and refine my sketch of an idea into something more substantial. Whatever our gaming group's big challenge for the week’s session was, I would be able to build a little world where we could play our game together.

I made a project called Tome of Maps, where I can share my creations with other DMs, GMs, and players alike.
Tabletop games are such an enriching aspect of my life, so I'm excited to share my maps with fellow gamers.
The Result
Check out some maps!
