Delve! Zine Cover Mockup

So here is a peek at a cover mockup for the first issue.  This is not the final version but getting close.  I still have to get the interior work done.  It's beginning to look a lot like Delve! time!

    That is a great cover. I'd perhaps do something about making the title more prominent -- making it bigger, or putting some kind of frame or panel behind it -- but otherwise that is a brilliant piece of work.

    I agree with Kelvin. First thing I thought of before I saw his comment. Fricking great cover, but don't be shy about the title of your zine. When its got an exclamation point its gotta be BIG!

    Yeah, not the finished piece. I got to work on it a bit more. I'm thinking it'll be framed. Kinda like the Arduin Gimoire.

Take Stock of my Stock Art :)

 Sorry for the really bad pun. OK, not really. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I've got things up and running with both my Ko-fi and DriveThruRPG shops. I'll be putting up some royalty-free stock art. For my Ko-fi members, I'm looking at membership levels and perks. It'll also be an avenue to communicate what kinda things you'd like to see as stock art. I'll eventually get to bundling stuff and having more designs, to include page borders, decorative items, and spot art. Also, I'll be collecting art in my art zine, Strange as Angels, which will be available solely on my Ko-fi page (right now only digitally). I'll look into physical items. The logistics of that is a bit wonky with me in New Zealand and it being super expensive to ship to anywhere outside New Zealand. Anyway, I appreciate your support. You can find my stuff at DriveThruRPG here:  DriveThruRPG - Ostensible Cat Design  and at Ko-fi here:  https://ko-fi.com/ostensiblecat  Cheers and happy g...

A little playing around

Image
So, I've been going through some of my older work and giving it the colour treatment. Daisey does most of my colour work but I do like to play around with the tools a bit. Here's a few of my older pieces that appeared on this very blog some years back that received the colour treatment. I've got some ideas brewing, hehehe. Let me know what you think!

Ostensible Cat Update – State of the Cat and Looking Forward

Wow, it's been three years since I’ve posted here. I’ll be honest, I’ve been doing a lot less gaming and a lot more art. Since my last post regarding gaming with my daughter, I think my daughter and I have found it very frustrating to make much progress in playing D&D 5e. Now, before this comes off as an old school gamer bashing newer systems, I think it has less to do with 5e and more to do with my evolving views on what works for me in gaming. It turns out that my preference in gaming is maybe moving away from class-and-race-based ttprgs as exemplified by D&D and its offspring. Now I’ve been playing TTRPGs since 1981, so none of these is new to me, but I think in that time, I have identified the aspects of gaming that really don’t flow well for me. Since I’ve been a late-life assessed neuro-spicy person, the masking and desire to just nug through things has just completely evaporated. Character creation seems to be a very challenging process for both my daughter and m...
