My first complete battle map (midwest.social)

This is for an upcoming session this Saturday. I've never been the kind of person that's into drawing, but I'm GMing my own PTU campaign, and I hated making maps online lol

I've been practicing for about a week now, and I'm pretty happy with this little map.

The setting is a small cave, complete with giant mushrooms, crystals, and a pond, which served as the improvised "break room," for a couple of miners my players found the skeletons of at the end of the last session.

Congrats,

We need more normies sharing normal maps, most-of-us are intimidated by these professional grade maps we can see online. In the end, sometimes a simple map is a nice narrative support. Also it looks pretty nice, better than mine, everything is there and clear so no need for fancy lighting and high-details sprites

With the same logic, there is nothing bad in just having a sketch on a whiteboard, or even no map at all. People have been playing without map for decades.
