Third and final version of the Goblin Caves! One of the very first illustrations I made for this project, a quiet record of how my style developed over the years. More info in the alt text. #ttrpg #dnd #osr #wickedvalley #beyondtheborderlands
Third version of the goblin caves, with the addition of stone floor tiles in some rooms, suggesting it was part of elven ruins. The linework is now inked by hand, with a few color changes and improved shading. This one will be in the final book.Second version of the goblin caves, with a few changes in room layout. Now we have all the monsters showing on the map, goblin, hobgoblin, a troll farming and the goblin king (the goat wearing a crown). Also drawn and colored digitally, but now we have a subtle layer of shading to convey darkness inside the dungeon.First version of the goblin caves, made digitally and and one of my first attempts of making insometric dungeons. I used blue to convey darkness while keeping everything visible, and oranges to convey light. No monsters depicted on the map, only objects.
