english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

A lost cavern shrine, fallen to ruin, bathed in strange blue-green light.

An ancient mountain temple, burried in snow.

Four ships from the age of sail: a carrack, a brig, a caravel, and a xebec.

A tropical beach, flanked by thick forest on one side and an azure sea to the other. Coral outcrops can be seen beneath the waves.

New TTRPG maps! Four, yes four, sailing ships: from the towering carrack, to the sleek xebec; from the swift caravel, to the dependable brig. This bundle will get you all four ships, so you'll have plenty of options for you next high seas adventure. Find them on our etsy: etsy.me/3DXTFly

New maps from Dead Herring Designs: ships at sea. Four age of sail vessels each sailing on a tropical sea, digital maps for your online TTRPGs.

A carrack: tall towers rise from the fore and aft giving it the character of a floating castle.
A brig: low and wide, a single weather deck but a comparitively modern sailing ship.
A caravel: relatively small and older ship but nimble like the carrack its aft rises high above the waterline.
A xebec: a long, low, and sleek, vessel built for speed.

New maps! A close up of the carrack (left) and the brig (right), digital maps for your online TTRPGs.

The carrack, light brown to tan, has a bulbous, bloated, hull with a towering forecastle, quarter deck and poop deck.

The brig, tan to dark brown, has a wide weather deck but a sleeker hull but lacks either a forecastle or quarter deck.

New maps! A close up of the caravel (left) and xebec (right), digital maps for your online TTRPGs.

The caravel, dark brown, has a rounded hull giving it a bloated silohuette despite its sleek form. A short forecastle is contrasted by a larger quarter deck at the aft.

The xebec, light brown to cream, has a long sleek form despite having both a forecastle and quater deck, the poop deck at the extreme aft has a unique design hanging over the aft (often refered to as a floating deck) and is made of grid of wooden beams to reduce weight.

You see this, quote with a title screen that’s iconic to you

Title screen for the game Warrior Kings, it features said title rendered like metal stained with blood (in 2003 graphics), a render of an Archangel stands proudly in the background against a blood red sky.

First post of 2025 and it's #portfolioday I make battle of many kinds maps for online ttrpgs. You can find all my maps on my etsy, etsy.me/3DXTFly Currently recovering from the loss of twitter as an effective advertising space so any reposts here would be greatly appreciated.

A crumbling ruin smothered by jungle foliage.

An ancient temple, stone statues of angels, all covered in snow and ice.

An underground shrine. A large statue of a reptile has fallen into a pool of water, fed by a foaming waterfall, within the pool and teal light casts strange shadows across the room.

A large shallow lagon full of coral abuts a white sand beach, waves crashing against the shore. The beach is littered with flotsam, driftwood, and a fallen palm tree. Beyond, the beach transitions into a thick jungle.

I made it to the other side and here to show off what's coming to the store in the next month or so. A tropical theme this month with three new maps. A cavern waterfall, a cliffside temple, and an overgrown tower. Lots of verticallity with these maps, so watch your step.

Three images of jungle themed dnd maps. Top left: A series of waterfalls crash out of a cavern, a large tree serves to bridge half of the river; Bottom left: An overgrown temple perches on the edge of a crumbling cliff, a large portion of the temple's ground floor is flooded. Right: A stone tower sits atop a precarious stair, tangled vines offer the only access to its upper floor; the jungle bellow is a long way down.
