Castle Ravenloft Upper Dungeon - Larders of Ill Omen (100x70, 160px)
🕑 Added 2022-01-06 16:14:04 +0000 UTCEdit 08/01/2022:
This edit mostly serves to provide WebP files with transparent backgrounds for the upper dungeon, and to remove the stairs from K79 - as these stairs feature an encounter whereby an illusion appears midway up or down the stairs from the landing. I thought it best to avoid splitting the stairs in two, so the party will be able to see what's happening if you choose to include it on the battle map!
As with the edit of the Spires of Ravenloft, I've also changed things a little to reduce duplicates, processing time, and superfluous variants, but again, if I'm mistaken and you use the transparent night files, please let me know! Apologies for the all the changes - I'm trying to fine-tune the best practice for presenting all these map variants!

Original Post:
We're now a single floor away from completing Castle Ravenloft - it's been a heck of a journey, but the finish line for my second complete Curse of Strahd map pack is just out of reach!
I had a lot of fun with the Hall of Bones, as upsetting a subject as it is - I've made JPEGs that include the chandelier and the garlands, with/without Argynvost's skull, and I've made WebP files to use as an overlay, so you can add them in Foundry and have your players pass under them. You know, for added immersion.
I kind of wish I'd started including overhead layers earlier in the project - there are so many neglected chandeliers throughout Curse of Strahd...
I'm going to fix some issues with the maps for the Spires of Ravenloft (and provide a token for the Heart of Sorrow) before I progress to mapping the Dungeons & Catacombs, but that should only take a day or two!
As always, I hope you like it!

My maps are made primarily with assets from Forgotten Adventures and AoA (bolstered with assets of my own making here and there), and they come with grid/gridless, day/night, and light/lightless variants, plus JPEGs or UVTTs and transparent layers (PNGs or WebP, map depending) for Foundry VTT.

Thank you, Andy! I've really been enjoying playing with lighting a little more recently - looking forward to seeing what I can do with these when I put them in Foundry, with the changes they made to lighting in V9! That'll be quite a way off though, I think - I find it hard to redirect my attention from making maps lately...

I love them! The lighting is SO good!!
