Maps Galore

Been making a lot of random line items (dice cups, shoulder pads, etc) but I've been fortunate enough to squeeze some maps in the past couple of months too!

Griffon Saddlebags

It was an honor and a privilege to be selected to make a pair of bags for Griffon Saddlebags (makers of excellent Magic Item cards).  I broke my brain against the design for almost two months before they were finally done but all that effort made some gorgeous bags.  Each one has a matching shoulderstrap and a pair of removable backpack straps.  The buckles are a little fiddly but only necessary when the bag's in "backpack mode".  I'm told one of these bags is on its way to feature in an upcoming episode of Critical Role on 12 March!  So I'll definitely be watching for that! ^_^

In the meantime, if you're the sort who likes D&D props or just good art you should take a gander at Griffon Saddlebags.  Those cards are top notch!

Map Case, 29"

Earlier this year I made a map case for a fellow and just before the holiday crush he reached out to have a similar case made with two changes: it needed to be 29" long instead of 19", and he wanted a luggage handle installed on the body.  I found what I thought were the photos from his original order and pulled the aesthetic specs from that.




It turns out I made two 19" map cases back to back and I'd grabbed photos of the wrong one for the specs.  So I'd made the case in the wrong color and didn't include some decorative stitching around the periphery.  Even worse, I didn't figure this out until the client received the case.  That was pretty embarrassing.  I redressed the situation by producing and shipping another case as soon as the holidays allowed.

Map, Caemir

A large map based on an old school homebrew campaign map.  They packed a lot of detail in a gorgeous map.  I hope I did it justice!

Map, Wheel of Time

It's been ages since I read Wheel of Time but I got to go back to "Randland" for this commission.  I redrew one of the official maps and cleaned up the text to work a bit better on leather.  Because Robert Jordan was all about that bling I added a gem rivet to the compass because of course.  The geography doesn't make any sense at all but it makes a pretty map!

Map, Norlansjord

Just look at this beautiful homebrew map!  The original was drawn on laminated letter paper and colored in with what looked like pencils and it's perfect.  I tried to duplicate the coloring with some tinting and that worked so well I may do more of it on future maps.  The friendly kraken is just precious.

Map Case, Leylines

As far as I can figure this was intended as a gift for an avid dowsing fan.  It has a pouch for the dowsing rods (button stud closure), shoulder strap, and an additional pouch for a compass.

Belt, Philly Lacross Team

It sounds like this belt was going to be traded around the team so we added a few extra holes to give it a wide fit-range.

Nintendo Holster

A large pouch fit to the Nintendo Switch Lite and 3DS XL with a Kirby theme.  I have a 3DS and a Switch but not those versions so the fitting was a little tricky.  Commonly provided dimensions don't always include the joysticks.  Fortunately I happened to have a perfectly pink lambskin in stock that made the perfect lining.  And a running half stitch was both structurally sound and matched the aesthetic Nintendo uses for a lot of it's products. 

This is such a good idea I'm going develop my own next year and if that works well it might wind up on the shop.
