I made a box for Soku Meshi today.
I'm hoping my test components show up for Winnipeg ComicCon next weekend.
If you are going to be there, head by the Game-itoba Tabletop Games Convention room and maybe you will get to play test it (if the pieces show up).

In a change from my usual blog posts, I am taking a look at games in my WIP folder.
This time it's Media Override, a sci-fi RPG with a heavy pop culture focus.

Yesterday I was going to work on some cover art for a 3rd party Reanimated adventure, but I instead found myself getting distracted by a hornet.

The game is good, and I will get distracted again.

2 pages left to write and I ran out of steam, so I decided to draw the cover instead.
