Cat Claw Clism for #MörkBorg is complete and printer ready! It's been a slog through various cat related crisises unrelated to Cat Claw, new kittens, Vet ER visit with our older cat and of course, the day job. On to final text edits the last of the four books that make up #GNAW #BorgedAgain

Recently watched- To The Devil A Daughter on @criterion.bsky.social not only is this one of the best and truly scary Hammer films I've seen recently, Christopher Lee is brilliant. And... he's a Cat dude. Gotta love him! #Hammer #Horror #Samhain #Nunsploitation #Cats

I've got around 10 pages nearly finalised for Punch Card: CyAnAlog, one of the four #BorgedAgain adventures that #GNAW will release later this year for #CyBorg. Tons of art, tons of mayhem and some new mechanics in each of the four Borg compatible books. #MörkBorg #PirateBorg #VastGrimm #IndiettRPG

Big News! If you backed #BorgedAgain we are psyched that a new talent has joined the team. Sadly we had to say Adios to Children of the Data Crypt, but in doing so we have a big ol' welcome to Punch Card:CyAnAlog. Check your KS update for details. #GNAW #MörkBorg #Cy_Borg #PirateBorg #VastGrimm

Here is one of my design shortcuts, I just use little rectangles for spacing. Software tools are great if everything is the same size or shape, but I find it tedious when trying to align multiple elements, alternately I use a large shape within a shape, that works pretty well too.

Cat Claw Clism has gone to the printer for a test proof! #GNAW will have more exciting news in the coming days about #BorgedAgain! Four flavors of #Borg, #MörkBorg, #CyBorg, #PirateBorg, #VastGrimm flavors that your local preacher would call a sin, but taste them when no one is around.

Haven't been posting much here, but that doesn't mean things have slowed down in the studio. Some new art for #BorgedAgain Cat Claw Clism, and you can own some of the original art from this upcoming #MörkBorg adventure. Details soonish. Oh, and some flouresce.

Found some old pens. Cleaned 'em, got 'em working again. Decided to do a test drawing and one thing led to another and somehow ended up with this. Running #OrcBorg Tuesday and had #yelling and #orc #culture on my mind. #MörkBorg #OSR #ttRPG

I've been busy drawing NPC's for Cat Claw Clism, last chance to get 4 Borgs, 4 Flavors, 4 x the despair. Late Pledges end soon. www.kickstarter.com/.../borged-a... #mörkborg #cyborg #GNAW #pirateborg #vastgrimm #ttrpgintros #ttrpgcreators #OSR #OldSchool #handdrawn #noAI

Everything in its time. No worries and here are a few of the pages as we continue working on refining the text before attempting to lay out the projects. @der-ajz.bsky.social

tinyurl.com/BorgedAgain 24 hours to go on our first Kickstarter--> get 4 Borgs, 4 books, tons of fun and flavor. We'll be sharing more pages and other details soon on the KS page and the GNAW discord. #MörkBorg #PirateBorg #VastGrimm #CyBorg #NoAI #zines #ttrpg #oldschool

Someone asked about layout for BORGED AGAIN! It's the last step in production, I'll share a few pages later tonight. In the meantime, a few of my print projects from the last few years. My first zine was in '89 so if you want more, ask. My mantra-TIFF-CMYK-LZW-300dpi Ohm. If you know, you know.

Fun fact, every time you pledge to Borged Again! A #Hasbro #exec gets kidney stones. Don't know how or why, I just know it is an indisputable fact. Go ahead, try to disputable it. Anyhoo, 60 hours left, we just made our $4k goal, and you won't get the swag if you buy retail. tinyurl.com/BorgedAgain
