Why pay for a meal when you can fill up on the free bread!

This map sampler from one of Roll20’s most popular mapmakers includes 100 maps and decorative elements spanning some of his top-selling art packs in the marketplace, originally debuted during Roll20Con, and now available to you for free.

Foreground Sampler Pack

Roll20’s Foreground Layer unlocks endless new possibilities for enhancing campaign scenes by providing a mechanism to support overhead elements like treetops and roofs, as well as opportunities for surprises like hidden enemies or treasure lurking beneath innocuous tokens.

In this sample pack, you’ll find generously donated assets from over a dozen partners, great for providing a new level of interactivity to your players.

The free packs in this blog are brought to you thanks to the generosity of dozens of hardworking and talented illustrators and cartographers. If you enjoy the art provided, please check out their other titles on the Roll20 marketplace.
