The nostalgic “kids on bikes” feel of Welcome to Derry is pretty on point.

I did a redesign of the Baulder’s Gate city map. I really like the way it turned out. I’ll probably end up changing some colors on the final since they printed weird, but ultimately, I think I managed to do what I set out to.

My redesign city map of Neverwinter. Had fun with this one, but I’m not sold on the age effects. Originally I wanted it to be more subtle. But 😂

Finished the final draft of my Map of Waterdeep. Although it was weird redesigning something that already existed—instead of building it from scratch—I really love the way it turned out. #waterdeep #roleplay #dandd #DungeonsandDragons

Waterdeep City map prototype is done! Just need to make some small changes. I really like how the gold and age effects turned out.

Starting a new D&D campaign based in Waterdeep so I remade the city map in my style. Still working on getting the printing margins correct, but my test print came out really well — little clipping. Total map is 22” x 36”. I’m planning on doing some age effects and some gold leaf. Very excited.

Then: ”I’ll just make a fun, low effort campaign…”

Not really a hot take since the movie came out in 2024, but I would rather be drawn and quartered than rewatch TRAP.

Learning that, apparently, you can get custom engravings on bullet casings is wild. Is this like a kiosk at the mall type situation or…

Built another Magic Card deck box for a friend. It’s for the “Peace Offering” Bloomburrow deck, which is all rabbit themed, so I tried to pull off a Redwall adjacent design. I think it turned out pretty good.

Finished my husband’s #MtG box. He plays blue-black from the Murders at Karlov Manor set which reads steampunk so I decided to do gears and copper verdigris.

Recently, I got back into #MtG and I wanted to create a cute box for my cards. Since the commander deck is from #Bloomburrow I made a whimsical wooden box with leather leaves. I’m really happy with the prototype. #magicthegathering #mtgcards

It’s surreal that I’m back at a game store, buying Magic cards. Haven’t played in like 20 years and I was a bit nervous tbh.
I love the kid that helped me find a commander deck though, he was all like “—or you could play this deck, it’s full of cute as fuck raccoons!”
😂
