I got some work to do on this style still, but I'm figuring it out and enjoying figuring it out.

Hey guys, I appreciate the reaching out for 3D modeling services, but I'm not in the market right now.

@TheBasicExpert1 @dLsd_25 @WhittersRichard Follow your gut and your heart. I know it sounds cheesy but if I learned anything over the last 30 years of being an illustrator it's that people can sense an artist's passion in their art. Which is why AI art may look amazing at first but has no lasting presence...

Today's video is late. But it answers a question about low to zero prep someone had asked a while ago. "How would you start from nothing? Just the rules." Watch on youtube at the link below.

I just made an update to the Wight-Box PDFs for backers! Please check DTRPG or the post on the KS with the Drive link and get the versions that didn't get garbled text on export.

Wight-Box PDFs were sent out via DTRPG and Google Drive. Check the Kickstarter update and your email. Some have yet to fill out their backer survey so I set a deadline of next Sunday. After that, the final update to the PDFs will occur with the names in the back.

I wanted to explore this watercolor style a bit more, but in a more rendered form. I thought mixing this watercolor and pencil look would be best and I think I'm happy with it. IT was fun to sketch a lizard man too. This was drawn in Clip Studio Paint. I'm really happy with this.

If you are doing old school D&D stuff, this font, Glacial Indifference, is pretty much identical to the futura font used in old school D&D. It's free to use commercially even. https://t.co/jEzaABJmxj

"Oh, he's very popular Ed. The story gamers, the RAWheads, the rule zero people, BROSR, critters, munchkins, wargamers, beer & pretzel players, they all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude."

Sick line work.
Sketchbook stuff I know it's a stereotype but I usually don't draw wizards in big hats. I made an exemption here #ttrpg #ttrpgart #ttrpgartist #ttrpgcommunity

I needed to do a doodle today anyways.
@WhittersRichard @dLsd_25 I was flipping through the MM and thought a Djinn would be fun. An impatient one.

How do you resolve this as well if the 3LBBs alone are enough? https://t.co/UrhpTC6kNi
@SpaceCowboyVFX Let me ask you and all other people who claim it is somehow impossible to play 0e with Chainmail this question: Its 1974, you are about to run your first game of OD&D. You are reading the rules and see that all weapons do a d6 of damage and are given this attack matrix. How do

This doesn't get you out of the logical quandary and contradiction you are in. Secondly, in what way did you apply Chainmail? You talk an awful lot about how terrible it is and that it adds nothing, but you never offer specifics. This is made even more curious because I have
The polyhedral dice were for D&D, which also requires it. We DID buy and try to use Chainmail with D&D and it added nothing. Which, I add, Gygax agreed with by releasing Swords & Spells to replace Chainmail.
