DeMartini Designs

Welcome to the D&D niche of DeMartini Designs: Painted battle maps, town maps, and more for D&D and other TTRPGs!

What started as a fun enhancement to my own home game became something I want to share with others, so please join me to help create immersive visuals for both online and tabletop games.

Printing Maps

• Multi-page maps are collected in ZIP folders for printing. 
• Each page has a margin so printers will not cut off any edges. 
• Assembly:

1. Print the pages at actual size.
2. Arrange map on flat surface by matching letters in the margins.
3. Trim or fold back one edge so print edges meet. Print edges always end on the edge of a square.
4. Tape pages together. 
5. Ready to play!

Mixing and Matching

Some dungeons and towns have special names in the tags, meaning they are elements that can mix and match with previous posts of that same name! 

• A small map may be a new room or hall shape to an existing dungeon, giving you more versatility for cutting out and arranging your own experience.

FAQ

If you don't see your question answered here, please ask for clarification! Others probably have the same question.

When am I charged?

• At the beginning of every month.

If I am at the Minor Deity tier, do I also get access to the customizable map files?

• Yes! Every tier has access to all rewards below it.

If I stay at the Minor Deity tier for multiple months, can I get a character drawn every month?

• Yes! Feel free to grab a Minor Deity slot when it is free to gain the benefit and you can pick a new character to get drawn every month you stay at that pledge level. If you only want it one time, feel free to drop back down to another tier after your commission is completed.

I am at the Reality Bender tier and the map did not come with any adjustable elements.

• A vast majority of the time a rugged/natural landscape will not have any elements for adjustment simply to make the visuals work. The Reality Bending tier mostly applies to constructed areas, such as building interiors where there is furniture to move.

Happy playing!
