Drawing Maps for 4 years professionally
Honest to God! That's gotta be the coolest thing in the world in my humble opinion. If you can't tell I'm crazy envious.
I have to say Dyson has basically changed the game as far as cartographer goes in our industry. If you don't know, he has an awesome patreon where people pay him to draw maps. He puts all these maps up for free on his blog for home use. In the last few years I've seen more than a fair share of adventure modules coming out with Dyson maps in them. Which just increases the awesomeness of the brand.
Geek & Sundry just published an article with some of the best cartographers, and guess who's on the list?
So you might be wondering why I'm posting about Dyson? Well he just released the latest Dodecahedron Cartographic Review For 2016.
Here's the info:
Another year of maps! 107 pages of maps with annotations curated from the maps posted to the Dodecahedron throughout 2016 (basically all the maps posted except for the My Private Jakalla maps which are still not complete).
The Review is available in two formats. The main emphasis of the release is an 8.5 x 11 inch spiral-bound book offered through Lulu. As spiral binding isn’t available through OBS, this is only available through the Lulu storefront. This $18 print edition includes a coupon code (on the first page) for you to buy the electronic edition for $2.50.
The PDF edition is available from RPGnow and includes not just the bookmarked version of the print-edition PDF, but also a digital appendix that includes the maps without the annotations making them easier to print for your games.

Now If you are already jumping in your seat to grab the new review, if you don't already have the previous two years, here are the links.
So honestly what the heck are you waiting for? Get the book, heck get all 3 if you don't have them. I've often started working on a map, just to go "wait a sec I'm sure Dyson has a better one, I'll go take a look".
*Please note, I posted this up because Dyson is an awesome guy, not because I'm getting a kick back, grab the book if you like maps. Cheers
