So it seems it slipped my mind to post these maps up. They were created for Wayfinder #3 (a long time ago) and are free for people to download for their own use. I tend to stick to battlemap scale maps for my fantasy map packs as I feel those are the most useful. If you’d like to see maps like this as map packs – let me know in the comments.
First up – an archipelago:
Second – we have a small city (well, really a large town):
These are free for personal use. Feel free to download and share around under the CC-BY-NC-SA license. Who know, a series of islands and a fortified town on the water might be just what you need for the pirates in your Skull and Shackles game!
Thanks Jon!
And yes, I love maps at these scales.
Been seeing alot of your work off MapTools.Love your work.Might even have a custom map job for you later next year.But these are greta as freebies.Again very nice work.
Thanks. I’m really glad you like them.
What did you use to make the city map?
All done by hand in Photoshop, with a Wacom Intuous tablet. Mostly, this one just took patience!
Thanks so much for these! I used your map as a location in the DINO-PIRATES OF NINJA ISLAND setting:

Here’s a guy claiming he made one of your maps.
Thanks for the heads up. That’s somewhat inevitable when you put art on the internet, but irritating nonetheless. I’m on it. Much appreciated.
I have used one of your maps as the cover picture to chapter 15 of a story I am writing, email me at JaekovKurosaki@gmail.com if this is not ok.
Also, any feedback on the story would be appreciated if you feel like it.

Use for the cover picture is fine – but please add attribution for the image. It’s creative commons licensed, but that license requires: attribution (my name as artist and a link back), that the use is non-commercial, and that you share alike any use of the map.
will be using your map in my upcoming naval campaign thank you for taking some of the work off my back!
Hi Jon,
I am trying to source a set of five or six (maybe more) cartoon-style pirate island maps. I would like these to be top-down images that I want to place on an ocean background. This will be for a website that I am creating as a class-room project (I am a web-development student).
Would you be able to help ??
I am more than happy to credit (and link) you on the site for any of your work which I could use.
You are welcome to use these – under the creative commons terms. Enjoy!
