It's done. all that's left is to go to the printing shop and print it on a random shirt to see what it actually looks like. I'm gonna print it both of the front and back cuz I'm thinking i want both as an option. the logo I'm still tinkering with this is what it looks like for now.

I'm working on a poster idea, I know I've been all over the place with what I want to work on but i think this shows promises, still a lot to iron out composition wise but I'm enjoying the process... for now.

feel like its still missing something, like there needs to be another element added to the design to really cap it off. at the moment it still kinda feels like its a harder basic enemy in a game rather than a boss if that makes sense. give me suggestions on what you think i can add

after the stream and came back again to try and draw the design we came up with on the computer instead. i feel a lot better about it now, still need to make it look rougher though i think it still looks too clean but i like the shapes. this is a witch btw or a type of one.

the Dust hog or as we have lovingly decided to call it the Sluppy, is one of the strangest animals who calls world of rust and trenches home. It's a mammal that uses disintegration magic to pretty much swim through the earth. though their most strange feature probably is their inflatable input.

I'm making a big ol image that will show the scale of all the things in Rust and Trenches ill have to fiddle around with how much to overlap the characters as to not make it too wide but also have good readability. ill iron it out slowly but its going good. most of these are still placeholder.

Trench digger with some Sluppies (slug puppies) that help him dig trenches, they are called dust hogs and are one of the strangest Mammels in Rust and trenches. they use disintegration magic to burrow through earth with ease. they were tamed by Ram to be used in the digging of tunnels and trenches.

I've been playing a lot of deadlock and enjoying Mo and Krill and just got the funny idea of Mo eating someone like Saturn devouring his son, as Krill watches on in horror so i drew it.

still quite rough but im thinking about making an image that i can gradually add to that depicts all the creatures and units from the world on 1 big ol canvas to give scale but also just to have it, first 2 added are of course the average soldiers of ram and verus.

these modifications come in many different shapes and sizes all with varying uses. but generally, an input and output are needed. to allow mana to be taken into the body and for it to be expelled in the form of spells.

The ability to use magic was not gifted to humas as it was to many other creatures, but as human do, they figured out a way to use it anyway. Modifying themselves with the necessary components to cast spells. though this does have many strange side effects.

Yakob is a witch hunter, Most witch hunters are riddled with wildly differing curses. The most terrifying thing about curses and witches in general is how little we understand about them. Even Tondri still struggles to uncover how Curses are contracted after encountering a witch.

Witch tears are large tear shaped concrete prisons to incase witches, they are hung from gallows as to not have them touch the ground and corrupt it. Many different beliefs and rituals have been created by different communities across ram since being left to fend for themselves against witches.
