Ethermont House (Patreon)

Ethermont House is the guildhall of the Imperial Society of Extraordinary Adventurers, who have done pretty well for themselves over the years. As it turns out, breaking into the homes of evil wizards, killing them and selling all their stuff is a fairly profitable line of work.

When the job is done and you've finally cleaned all the little chunks of Saruman off your battleaxe, Ethermont is a great place to go and relax with some friends. Then, after a night in the beer hall and the billard room, you can go up to the guildmaster's office, pick up another contract and head out to smoke Voldemort.

So, I started my patreon 5 years ago this month and it feels like I should do something special. So I'm going to hold a vote for all patrons on which historical map I should draw. The options will be:

1. Château de Brézé - A French castle with an elaborate network of caves and tunnels dug around and underneath it.
2. Stack Rock Fort - A British sea fort off the coast of Wales.
3. Church of St. George, Lalibela - A very unique church carved into the bedrock in Ethiopia.
4. Castel Sant'Angelo - Hadrian's Tomb, which later became the pope's castle.

These are places that have been on my to-do list for a while now and I think they will all make amazing maps. One of the monasteries of Meteora, Greece would have been on the list as well, but it just won last month's Cartographic Congress vote, so I'm drawing it next. Between that, the giant ship and whatever wins the vote, there'll be some cool stuff coming up.

I want to say thank you to everyone who's supported my art over the last five years. Being able to wake up and draw maps for you every day is the best way I can imagine to make a living and I appreciate it more than you will ever know. Thank you all.
