Somewhat productive day

Worked a bit on my next personal project. I'm trying to push myself into actually seeing through my OSRIC/OSR project that I had started way back in 2006! We'll see how it goes. Happily, I'm experiencing my Fall creative rush. However, I tend to have creative ADD so it is very hard for me to maintain focus and see things through unless I'm doing work for someone else. I tell you, having someone give you a deadline and a paycheck at the end of the deadline is a much better motivator. Perhaps I'll try and get my wife to be my taskmaster and try and keep my focus up.

Take Stock of my Stock Art :)

Image
 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...

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!

Neurodiversity and Dragons - the adventure begins!

Image
  Tl;dr: Kia ora all! I don’t often post much about my personal life, but as a parent of two neurodiverse teens, I reckoned that I’d post some of my experience in gaming here on our journey. My daughter was diagnosed with autism almost a year ago and my son is dyslexic/dysgraphia with ADHD like presentation. Both are incredibly bright and very different from each other (my son has lots of friends and is very bright and gregarious if also very lazy while my daughter is very retreating and shy but incredibly driven and motivated). They both love fantasy and fantasy literature, movies and gaming has been a way for us all to connect. Though often what works for one, doesn’t necessarily work for the other. This brings me to my point, I am working on trying to best accommodate the needs of my neurodiverse daughter and include her in an experience that she very much wants to participate in, but often feels frustrated and overwhelmed by. This is an introduction to our journey so far. ...
