Now there’s a hole in the sky / and our superhero is trying to close it with her super-powers! From ‘Aberrant: With Great Power’, from @theonyxpath.bsky.social. (While I love comics, I’ve never been a superhero fan, so that’s why I always get a bit giddy whenever I talk about these.)

Was told today that my old college tutor & general illustration mentor Ron Tiner had died. Really sad. Rest in peace, Ron. Thank you for everything & passing on the fire.

Hooey war robot makin’ factory from ‘Aberrant: With Great Power…’ tabletop RPG book, out from @theonyxpath.bsky.social. Yes, I poured all my adolescent robot love of @2000ad.bsky.social’s ABC Warriors, Terminator films and anime mecha into this and then just sorta freewheeled it.

This is #3 in a series of threads about Gloranthan art hanging on my walls. This one is so good, I bought it twice, first as a commission for my book, The Voralans, and here as the original hand-drawn ink art from @leeoconnor.bsky.social. In the book, this picture is in full colour, added digitally.

Scientist getting zapped by weird science reactor from @theonyxpath.bsky.social’s ‘Aberrant: With Great Power’ superhero tabletop role-playing game. Looks like this’ll be what gives him weird powers then, chief. Zap!

It’s all true! I was there, man! And this was loads of fun and it was great to meet you, Olga!
I had the best time at Chaosium Con UK this year. Met amazing people, played hillarous games and learn so much from my fellow keepers and players.
I am also the owner of the best souvenir an amazing art work of my cats riding my dog into battle. Done by the talented @leeoconnor.bsky.social

You guys have really gone for these (thank you!) so here’s some still photos of those playing cards. So they’re all gone for now, but there’ll be a Print on Demand version soon. Gotta reformat all the art & draw SOME 20+ EXTRA CARDS first..!

All of the playing card art scanned in, lined up and flat-coloured. Bit of a squint-fest, but they’ll start singing a bit more once they’ve got more colour on them, stand by!

All the linework for the playing cards. You can see that the format and size changed a few times, almost like… I was making it up as I went along..!
The scanning of these was slightly more professional than the filming, you’ll be glad to know.

Been drawing a deck of playing cards, unique artwork for every single card, that you can look at upside down or the ‘correct’ way up… They’re off at the printers now and I’ll give you some more high-speed updates over the next few days.

A firey fellow for Onyx Path’s Trinity Continuum: Aberrant superhero RPG book ‘With Great Power’. Need a fireman-themed superhero to come and put this guy out. (And I’m waiting for the comic fans and Aberrant fans to clap back right about now.)
The book’s out now in print & PDF!

First proper go at sculpting something with software. It’s supposed to be a female halfling’s head. Heads are easy because they start out as a blob..!
So with learning anything new, it turns out you have to make all the stupid mistakes first and then redo it again like you mean it.
