It's a Felltower Sunday, so I spent a bit of a time working on maps.
I have a nice book of 4 squares to the inch graph paper from someone recently (thank you!) and turned it into a "fine detail for Felltower" map book. I've been working on the levels far ahead of where the PCs have been going. It's a relaxing way to spend the afternoon, drawing up maps of locations the PCs will get to eventually.
That's pretty much what I've been doing each week. If I don't have any other Felltower work to do, I do some close-in maps to be ready for future play.
To aid this, I bought a few more tools:
- a better rule set
- a proper L-ruler
I do need a new mechanical pencil. Any recommendations for a 0.5 mm mechanical pencil?
I use a Pentel AM13 1.3mm. Very happy with it over many years.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, 1.3 mm is pretty big (the largest I've used is 0.9). I assume since you've used it and are happy with it through the years, you like the thicker lead. Probably breaks less!
DeleteI’ve used the Pentel GraphGear 1000 Automatic Drafting Pencil (0.5mm), and I liked it. My favorite for everyday use was the Pentel Quicker Clicker (side click lead advance), and the “fancy” Pentel Kerry is quite nice. NYT Wirecutter review also has good recommendations, but I haven’t used all of those.
