You just get out of the car, grab your knife and go to town on the wheel! Parking no longer an issue, everybody happy, right? (just kidding) (It takes me ages to learn to park a new vehicle)

Saw this on a friend’s page and decided to repost. Being a friend really means stepping up behind the scenes at times like this. And please don’t dismiss their concerns by trying to reassure them it’s all OK - just allow people the space to be worried, scared, whatever.
This is scary but I'm taking The Film Maven off Substack and have transferred to Ghost. Not only does this give me complete ownership of my work, but also means I won't continue to lose money to Substack and Apple. I lay everything out for Subscribers here. thefilmmaven.substack.com/p/the-film-m...

Another concept I created for Peculiar Path's solarpunk project, this one exploring the interior of a potentially transformed cruise ship. At this point we wanted a wonky, DIY, scrappy feel to everything, but still with an aura of hope and excitement and possibility.

There’s nothing wrong with feeling down or sad, when the things you wanted to do don’t work out. Nothing to do with failing or succeeding. Often shit just happens. You can always try again later when the tide has turned.

How's everyone monday going? In between my breaks from working on Miru 3, i've been dabbling in some UI changes for the Card & Coin cards. Early feedback suggests folks are confused on what side of the card is 'up'. So maybe instead a banner at the bottom? and maybe multiple suit icons for 'points'
Donate $5+ to this and DM me a receipt/screencap/whatever and I'll sketch a pet adventurer. You pick species/class.
All the entries in WANDERING MONSTERS give multiple avenues to engage with the creatures. RIDINGDRAGONS really love to steal shiny objects and zip off into the sky - but promise them MORE goodie if they help you and you might get to ride one into battle! Also everyone has a face (or voice) cast.
![as a threat as an npc RIDINGDRAGONS are the descendants of the Dragon Mounts of the Old Kingdom, although they are much smaller than an ACTUAL dragon - only about the size of a motorbike, albeit with wings. Typically they are scavengers, far too small to take on the larger beasts of the WILDROADS. They will, however, steal rations and other items they deem useful or intriguing, for they still possess their cousins' lust for specific “trinkets”. Use the first DRGN DICE rolled against them to determine what they treasure most by comparing it to this table: On a 1, they value Adventure Itself; on a 2-3, Shiny Things; on a 4-5, Something of Personal Value; on a 6-7, Tasty Treats; on a 8-9, Valuable Secrets; on a 10-11, Powerful Relics; and on a 12, a Dragon's Hoard. If convinced, they might travel with you until you set up camp, during which they will discuss the terms of your arrangement going forward. If their dice are ever reduced to zero, they leave the group permanently. FLYING MOUNT: While riding the semi-dragon, you can add its current die to any STAT roll you make. Furthermore, you can choose to [-] its die instead of reducing your own. FIRE SPITTER: The dragon can diminish its own die to spit a glob of fire at a target. This aids any player's attack, granting them a [+] bonus to their next dice roll. On their turn, they swoop down from the sky to steal a player's ICONIC ITEM and immediately attempt to flee the area. If they manage to escape, the players may pursue in a high-speed chase using a DNGR DICE rating of d8. A player who is without their iconic item automatically fails any roll if their d20 result is a natural 20.

Knarr has a really interesting mechanism to force the end of the game. I wrote about it at Skeleton Code Machine: www.skeletoncodemachine.com/p/the-final-...
If anyone wants to commission me to write them something ttrpg related let me know, I need to replace my laptop for my studies. I'm good at game prep, lore, npc design, and editing. I can also do backstories, short stories, or myths.

Oh yes, absolutely. It’s taken way too long, but finally some of my fellow Europeans and me (! … it’s taken me way too long, too!) begin to realise what „colonisation“ actually meant or means.
Out of curiosity, are there any fellow artists who create art inspired by vintage print/book illustrations? Would love to follow more who share my niche.
Oh, I can only imagine. People really, really need to absorb a lot more history than they is being served on a standard European or American education menu.
Japan‘s history is kind of crazy (and glorious), China’s history is wild (and glorious and kind of crazy) and so on and on. Even thinking of China‘s history as some kind of unified story is totally besides the point. The territory is huge with so many different people. Totally mind boggling.
Historical reasons I might understand (as in being a member of a culture/ group that has suffered b/c of another group), but how does anyone come to a point where, I don’t know, Japanese culture/ history is to be valued higher than Chinese culture/ history (or any other combination of nations)???
