Popped into a game shop this morning and found two new #DnD supplements that I’d recently contributed a ton of art for. Nice to see fresh work on the shelves! 🙂

This whole shebang seems to be scripted by The Weekly World News or a psychopath with a sadistic streak. I know that’s not true but it appears like the cosmos is losing its collective mind. It’s exhausting. Oh, and eggs are expensive.

Here's a closer look at my Silver Marches #RPGmap, now available via Patreon at TheEpicAtlas.com. The foldout poster was one I originally drew for the #DnD adventure 'War of Everlasting Darkness' & reminds me of the old poster inserts I loved in National Geographic mags. #TTRPG #Faerun #fantasy
