New Map Set: Serene Lake

The trees part to reveal a crystal-clear lake, its surface shimmering under the midday sun. At its center, a moss-covered statue juts from the water—its worn features almost human, yet unsettlingly alien. A rickety wooden dock clings to the rocky shore, creaking softly in the breeze. Something ancient stirs beneath the surface... watching.

Hey folks! I’ve just released a brand new map set called Serene Lake, and it’s one of those locations that feels peaceful on the surface… but you just know something’s lurking underneath.

This scenic little pond is hidden deep in the wilderness—surrounded by rocky ledges, mossy trees, and a rustic dock that looks like it’s seen better days. In the center of the lake sits a weathered, half-submerged statue. No one remembers who or what it depicts, but the glow around it at night suggests there’s still some ancient magic pulsing through its stone veins. Whether you're hosting a quiet lakeside encounter or throwing your players straight into a mystery, this map has you covered across day, night, golden hour, and eerie glow variants.

And heads up—Foundry VTT module versions will be available in the next few days, so stay tuned if that’s your platform of choice!

Huge thanks to everyone supporting my work here!

Cheers!

I really like the map but it is completely useless when it's isometric and not topdown. Is the plan going forward to keeping doing map in the perpective? Also only WebM format is present in the download - shouldn't there be MP4 also?

I just downloaded the pack and as usual it is both isometric and top down. What I normally do is use the isometric for the introduction. So they can see how incredible it looks, have dialogue and roleplay etc. If it turns into battle, I load the battle map version which is top down. So yeah, from what I can tell, there are tons of both and they are absolutely gorgeous as usual. Every time he makes a new animated map, I'm shocked at the quality.
