It's done! Here is my guide to art commissioning, licensing, and art direction in TTRPGs. It's free to see, has contract and brief templates, and plenty of resources to aid in art literacy in the space.

It's hard getting noticed as an indie creator.

If you enjoy what I do and have a spare moment, do you mind making a quote repost of the quoted post? Or make a separate post linking to the Kickstarter? 🙏

I've also experienced bleed when playing, especially MORK BORG, specifically, through my eye sockets
"Players reported dreaming about Over/Under, losing sleep, even forgetting to eat."

@lincodega.com writes about the intensity of Mothership Month's hyperbaric roleplay experience and the bleed that resulted from a lack of conventional safety tools.
Thirty Days of Bleed
Within a high-pressure, nonstop roleplaying game, denizens of Over/Under found it difficult to extricate their character’s emotions from their own.

Plus if you like my work and buy my stuff you should simply be there. I hardly ever email, only important stuff, and it keeps us connected amidst the sinking ships of platform economies

Computer, show me marketing trends in the knowingly uninspired and money-minded D&D sphere for the word "Cweartern"
Stop using the word dungeon for every location. Old English offers specific terms like Cweartern for a prison and Eorþscræf for a grave. These words imply darkness and earth. See how historical linguistics can improve your world building.
Why Old English is the ultimate world-building tool for D&D
Stop calling it a library. Discover why using Old English words like Bōchord and Scop adds gritty historical depth to your fantasy roleplaying games.

If your JRPG doesn't have random NPCs with annoying placement of the dialog trigger box, which makes it so that you repeatedly, accidentally talk to them, and that talk has no skip button and you have to go through like 20 dialog bubbles to get out, don't even bother me

The Boshin War was the means by which Satsuma-Choshu oligarchs imposed their vision for Japan at the point of a gun.

My PhD thesis about the Northern Alliance, one group that fought them, is free to read via the link. It was panned for "reading too much like a novel," so you should totally read it!

Working on a zephyr piece, and behold the weirdness of color:

the blotch in number 1 is actually pure grey. not a shred of hue in there. and in number 2, where it looks pale green, that's actually a tone of deep blue lmao (very desaturated ofc)
