Sales Tax Update

Hey folks!

I wanted to write up a quick post explaining some changes you may have already caught wind of that might affect some of your pledges. Due to some new laws passing in several countries and US states, Patreon will be required to start charging sales tax on certain pledges starting July 1st. 

Less  than half of all patrons site-wide will b...

Per last week's asset pack poll it appears that I'll be working on some Underdark Assets for the next public assets pack. So as I've gotten into the habit of doing when beginning new projects, I thought I'd open up an opportunity for you all to provide some suggestions in regards t...

Public Asset Pack Theme Vote

Hello all!

With the release of the Chase Tiles pack last week we need to vote on our next larger installment of the public asset packs. I've included the remaining options from the previous poll as well as an option for a 2nd iteration of a previous pack. If that option were to win there would need to be a followup poll to decide between the various options:  Forest, Tavern, Snow, Ri...

Follow me on Instagram!

Hey folks! Quick plug in case you're interested: I've been wishing recently that I were better about sharing images out into the world beyond what I already do with the finished products here, and want to avoid spamming your email notifications more than I probably already do, so I am reviving my instagram page!

I would be the first to tell you that I am not exactly a social medi...

Hello all!

Wooden Roof Assets

Wooden Roof Assets

Hey folks!

Taking a little break from bright, eye-catching spell effects and world-spanning gunslinger provinces to instead direct my attention towards something a little more mundane, but in my opinion every bit as important: new roof assets!

Hello everyone!

Super excited to share with you the first regional map I've created in about a year: The Great Expanse. I am especially stoked for this map because I've created it for a new campaign my players and I are starting that's set in it! The Great Expanse is a setting of my own design that's heavily inspired by the American West of the mid 1800's, but also with a...

Spell Assets Part 3 Preview List

Hello all! 

Last week and in March I've released parts one + two of our recent spell assets series looking to provide assets for magical flair and to mark range/area-of-effect of common spells. Parts one + two as you know were broader categories of spell elements. Part three however (which I intend to release next month) will instead cover more specific effects/tokens for individual ...

Tarslemoor Photoshop Files

Hello $3+ supporters! Because of the sheer immensity of this project at times I had to divide it into different PSD files to be able to work on it without crashing my computer. The Tarslemoor University.psd file has the vast majority of the final map on it, except for the finished rendering (on individual layers) for the exterior view. Those can be found in the Exterior.psd file.

Hello all,

I hope all of you (wherever you may be located) are doing okay in these strange times. Like many of you I'm working from home for the foreseeable future, which is both odd for me as well as potentially opening up some more time for projects that I've had difficulties fitting into the normal routine.

In light of everything that's been happening we've been seeing a surge in...

Hello all!

Some unfortunate news: most of you will remember the giveaway we did last month to help promote a partnership I had undertaken with the company TableClicks. While the giveaway went perfectly well, there were some issues that TableClicks ran into with their Kickstarter and they unfortunately had to call off the campaign. 

While I'll look forward to hearing from them a...
