November's Theme: Swamps? (Patreon)

Hello Patrons,

Mountains and Plains technically won November's theme, but Swamps was one vote behind.  Keith sees a bit more opportunity/inspiration for Swamps however. I'm inclined to go with what inspires an artist and not push them in another direction if it isn't necessary.  Is that OK with everyone?  If so, Plains & Mountains will go back into the list for voting next month.

Here are some of the things he's looking at creating:

  • Isometric World: Swamp city/town/village/ruins; Lizardfolk town & city; Snakepeople city, town, village, fort; Frogfolk town & village
  • Classic World: roughly the same subjects as isometric
  • Settlement: bayou buildings (houses, hag shack, boathouse, ruined buildings, swamp druid abode), swamp walks, docks, platforms, boats, fish trap, lizard folk buildings, frog folk buildings, swamp fauna.
  • Battlemat: swamp boats, swamp walks, fauna, statues, rotted ruins, gator wallow, swamp floors.

We're already have well over 100 icons, but if you have suggestions which should bump some of these, please let us know!

For swamps I'd love to see some classic world terrain to better define types of swamps too. Be that ghostly swamps, a swamp monster lair. The current marsh/swamp ones are OK but I think variants could be made to better emphasise.

I am more interested in classic/.generic rather than lizard people or snake people though I would like that too

Sounds like a most excellent decision to me.

I concur with going with the artists muse! I would like an expansion towards other wetlands than just swamps, but I bet there is enough variation using real world examples ranging from the louisana bayou, the Great Dismal Swamp of the Carolina's, the Everglades, and many many more.

It would be nice to have variations of dangerous locations such as bogs, slow sand, slippery surfaces, partial disclosers of hidden items (like the edge of a box, a bit of a blade or other item, etc..), trick gulleys (gulleys that look shallow but really are much deeper), sets of Spanish moss covered trees, vine plants that grab and strangle, gigantic venus fly traps, or the pitcher plants that also eat things, fire bogs, infectious plants (ie: Plants that give you infections). These would greatly increase what types of swamp items that can be made - but - I'll take whatever. :-)

I'd rather see some inspired icons rather than force someone to crank out something they are not feeling. As I understand it, there are two main types of swamps: freshwater and saltwater. Some modern buildings and vehicles like a swamp boat would be nice.

LOVE the ideas you posted for the classic and Isometric world icons!!!
