Alrighty, this is all the time I have to devout to this right now because... well, life and stuff.

Depicted here is the entrance to the ice cavern on the left, including the remains of whomever had come this way in the past. In the upper right of the picture is a fissure that opens to another entrance above that is used by the remorhaz that makes its den in the center middle of this photo. The remorhaz uses the heat of its body to melt ice from above to conceal the opening to its den, which then freezes into a thin wall.

The north tunnel from the entrance leads to an area where the floor has dropped away, leaving broken sections and ice ledges behind. (I am not certain why on this render some hard lines have appeared). The corridor on the left leads to a den occupied by a mad hermit-druid.

Through the corridor west of the cavern with the dropped floor (and also through the passage south-east of the entrance cavern) the tunnels lead to a lair of kobolds that worship the dragon Frostbite. The pit in the left of the frame leads to whatever lies below, and is subjected to whatever detritus the kobolds toss below.

To the east of the kobolds lies the lair of the dragon, Frostbite. In the south-east is a tunnel leading upwards to whatever secret entrance is used by he dragon.

North of the cavern with the dropped floor is an unexpected hot spring. East of there the tunnel opens to an area that has been fashioned by some people or other.

Beyond the hot spring are abandoned rooms, and old supply room, mess and kitchen of whomever mined here in the past.

West of the mess and supply room lies the remains of the mine itself and a storage room. The north portion of the mine is long collapsed.

West of the mine remains is the beginning of the molten river that goes deeper underground.

This is going to be the final version. Had a fun time making the map, and did a fair amount of learning along the way. I'll submit the file in the main threat and put put a link to this one.

Since this is the place to share, here are a couple of other maps. These maps were made for a D&D 5e campaign and a Campaign for Stars Without Number. Feedback is welcome, and I will gladly explain my design decisions. Some of these maps are older, and I have learned quite a bit since creating them.

While I've been tinkering with the program for a number of years I can't help but feel that I am not using it to the full potential. If you would like to use any of the maps, feel free.

Here is the final version of the map. Unfortunately this is all the time I have to devout to the project. Check out the WIP thread for close up images and an explanation of each area.

I am new to the forum and just want to share some work to get some tips and feedback.

This map is a small region where my PCs are currently playing. This was save as a JPG file and the resolution isn't super high, but at least it gives an idea of the area. Any thoughts on the map are appreciated of course.

Seems to be a great community here!

Just thought I would share some progress on a world I am slowly picking at. My D&D group currently plays on this world.

Keep in mind all of the areas are works in progress and these are snapshots of a larger map.

Feedback is always welcome, as this is how I learn how to improve.

Attached is an image for the current Community Atlas competition. I have never made an ice cave before, so there's a lot of learning going on here. The intent will be to have a "drop in point" on the lower left portion of the map. The natural caverns are full of tight passageways, with a few surprises.

On the eastern passage there will be the lair of the dragon Frostbite and his Kobolds. Eventually I will be adding a portion with hot springs, which will hint at something warm below.

A quick update on map progress. Here is what the layout will more or less look like in the end. I intend on take images of each area with explanations of each in the near future. It is a fairly simple, straight forward dungeon, but I still got some learning under my belt.

Thank you for the feedback. Good eye for detail as well. I should have explained a little more before posting. This is a rectangular sections JPEG saved from a larger map. There is a hex grid that is VERY light, which I have matched up onto a hex grid on Roll20 where my players do their thing. The grid is scaled at 1 hex = 1 mile. I didn't feel the need for a scale under these circumstances, so it was intentionally left out for now.

Good observation on the mountains on the coast. At the time (it was a while ago now) it was intentional to have the overhang, but in retrospect it was a poor decision. But hey, that's the beauty of the software, I can go in and change it!

In regards to the labels, this is a section that is uploaded for my players online, and they can zoom in as they like to read them. You're absolutely right, though. If I was going to zoom this out to a larger scale I'd either be making the font bigger or removing the font on the smaller landmarks altogether.

This sort of feedback is exactly why I signed up the community! Thanks again! You will always find me receptive to feedback as I feel like I am pretty ignorant to some of the tools the program as squirreled away.

Just wanted to say that these maps are absolutely wonderful. Well done!

On the left here, the entrance will be marked. On the floor are the remains of some other lost traveler who dropped down the hole. Connecting the two hallways that split off of the two chambers if the hidden den of a remorhaz, who uses the heat from its body to melt thin sheets of ice over the opening to its den. The area to the north of its den is a crevice that opens to a hidden area above, where the creature can leave the cave to hunt.

Like I said, for me this is really a learning project. I can't tell what is going to look decent in a rendered image, and if this stuff actually looks like ice. I am having a great time with the project though!

The next imagine depicts an area where the floor has dropped away. To traverse it explorers may be forced to jump from one icy portion of the remaining floor to another. There is still a lot of work to do on this area... depending on the render the floor below is either too well lit or totally dark.

Here we have a pit in the ice, just off of the dens occupied by our dragon worshiping kobolds. They dump whatever they like down there: refuse or anything else they may not like. Who knows what else lurks below.

Having a great time with this project so far. Looking forward to sharing more progress and learning from what everyone else is doing.
