Boundless Space: Making the scary monsters of the Eridani Belt today. I'm thinking that space combat will be much like normal conflict in Boundless, but with the addition of vast space ranges, multiple actions for a crewed ship, and of course, torpedoes and boarding!

My table mucked about a bit with the earlier draft of this one, and had a ride as dream smugglers on the run from an insect empire.
Attached is our take on the Orphan Vessel from that setting.

Hot damn, I've always wanted to run an Incal/Arzach, and it looks like it will finally happen! This piece by Linnea Sterte is incredible.

Laying out some NPCs for that Boundless Space game today. I can draw little space guys all day long, but really wish I could outsource the writing. The pain of staring at the names I come up with, willing something better to emerge.

Not today! I'll be posting some Solarcrawl art soon, though.
This one is a small game about asteroid belt traders, using @rpdeshaies.farirpgs.com's "Boundless" engine, about rebuilding in the wake of a war.

I'm thinking of a bar for the mech members of the Human Spectrum called "Mechanical Turk's".

Boundless Space art for you all today, as I can't share commission work, just yet.
I'm thinking about putting some bright holographic billboards around the asteroid belt's little boomtown station. What kind of far future amenities do you all think that Railhead should have on offer?

Everytime I go to make a small game, I feel like I've got to give you all some really decent art to look at.
-and then I end up drawing the individual windows on a space city. This is going to take a minute.

That's right! Working on a port today, when I'm not doing colors for commission work!

All right fine. You all like the fish!
I finished up the front side of the ship sheet and I guess I'm making a space trading game. (Combining the Boundless rules by Rene Pier Deshaies with the card trading rules from an earlier prototype.)
Next up should be a port of call.

There we go, I may torture myself and draw this one as a cross-section, to present the players with a ship interior to imagine.

The dang thing is supposed to look like it belongs in the same universe as these fighters, though. So the perfectionist in me sent me back to the drawing board today.

I went down a bit of a rabbit hole yesterday on ships-as-characters for a project. Trying to find a way to make attractive, but also useful art assets for a game.

Working on a lines for a pair of very large images today, both about space and d20's but quite different in character.
I don't know about the other would-be designers out there, but I have to hop around from one project to another to prevent burnout.

Everything about this sounds great, having been banging around a similar space for some time now. Every update makes it sound like you've got something really cool coming together!

I maintain that Bringing Out the Dead (1999) *is* a Doc Wagon campaign, and that's the energy I want to see at my table.

Revisiting an older project, and while the next iteration of Crash//Cart is going to allow much more player-driven characters, the art from the first version had such character!
Look at these sad-sack VTOL ambulance pilots.
I hope to keep the action-figure accessories, at least.

Setting the table for tonight's Mythic Bastionland game.
The map is by Dyson Logos, with colors by my kiddo. We're also using the Botanica Tarot by Kevin Jay Stanton for NPC "portraits"!
