    Default The Burning Crater

    This is the latest map done for JSawatsky's column on the Kobold Press blog. The adventure that goes with it can be found here. This map is property of Kobold Press/Open Design.

    I decided to take a break from Illustrator and try some pixels. As usual it was heaps of fun doing this map and scribbling all over it.

    cheers,
    Meshon

    Hey meshon, this looks awesome! Great job This shows you not only master the vectors, the pixels are fantastic. Keep up the good work, it's always such a pleasure and so much fun to look at it. Have some (non-explosive) rep!

    This is really cool, although I would like to see nicer type treatment , hopefully none of our governments get a hold of something like this. Wouldn't want to imagine Donald Trump with something like this!

    Thanks for the comments! Yes it's definitely a terror weapon, fire giant style. In case you haven't read the adventure, the "cargo" is a pack of hell hounds. You can sort of see one sticking out.

    And yes, I'll have to work on my hand writing.

    Ouch. But very nicely drawn and explained.

    When I told Meshon the core of the article is a Fire Giant forged experimental missile full of Hell Hounds and toxic gas, his response was something like "let's talk physics for a moment."
    10/10 - would recommend writers working with him.

    Excellent, if somewhat terrifying, work. Frankly, I feel sorry for the poor engineer who's getting the blame of everything!

    But in all seriousness, the artwork looks fantastic and I love the concept. Will rep if I can.
