Definitely! I haven't been playing enough RPGs lately. I think I'm going to try to check out Arcane Con this year. Are you all heading down for that?

Prince Valiant uses the coin flip pool for resolution, right? I think I've only played that one once!

Oof… sorry for the typos in the alt text.

I've definitely seen others that are more gothic... I'll try to remember where I saw them! (The downside of seeing things in passing on Instagram is that I can never remember the specifics.)

@elisabethalba.bsky.social Has several tarot decks that might fit this bill! (Including one with amazingly cute woodland critters!) www.albaillustration.com/whimsy-woods...

If you don't go out preaching the good word, the Duolingo owl gets really sad.

Wow, thank you! I hope to do more comic stuff in the future. I'll try my hardest to not draw all the hidden details.

Also, I saw that my friend Matt did one of the variant covers for your Ghostbusters comic! (I met him a million years ago when he was a docent at the Words and Pictures Museum.)

That what I should do, but never actually seem to. Most of my stuff these days is just illustration, so I almost always prioritize the art. I've let my comics skills atrophy!

My favorite thing to do is edit the text so that the word balloons don't cover that perfect hand that came out exactly how I wanted it to.

Twice the work, for the same pay! (Which, since it's my own work, is 2x zero.)

Quite often, when I'm lettering my own work, I'll do a hybrid: I'll letter it digitally to get the layout and balloons, then create digital lettering guides and letter them on my iPad. You get that slightly janky analog quality, but the ability to adjust things when stuff needs to be edited.

Finally, my untapped marketing prowess is manifesting!

Whenever I need to concentrate, but need music to drown out the tinnitus, I listen to Medieval LoFi. It keeps showing up in my end-of-year lists for number of plays!

Interesting! I guess that makes sense. If it also meant not having to wait 15 minutes every third time you play a game for the latest software updates, that might be a worthwhile tradeoff.

I worked on a couple of titles in the early 2000s for PS2 & XBOX. It was such a chore getting assets on the PS2 because of processor specs. Each bump in processing means less optimization is needed by the art team who would rather eat glass than spend time trimming poly counts & texture size.

I keep seeing weird ads for Fox News while watching Robin of Sherwood. Nothing like watching a tale of outsiders fighting against oppression interspersed with creepy dog whistle jingoism.
