Darker Horse Art

A picture of my bsky profile showing '@darkerhorse.art' as my new handle

I did a thing! Domain name for my business is now also my handle

Fursuits and Monsters Artist-made dice, gaming supplies, costuming, and LARP gear

I forgot to announce my site was back up! Made-to-order inventory only for now while I work on a new stockkeeping system.

I've added a section to my site called Fursuits and Monsters for more animalistic and monstrous costuming pieces and parts.

The same table closer. The rat is leaning in menacingly

Come on down to Brighton Bazaar in Boston to meet our rat shopkeeper, and see a lot of cool wares and entertainment!

Today is the day! Come see us at Medieval Merriment at the Brighton Bazaar

We're going to be at the Brighton Bazaar September 18th! Come see us at the third ever Medieval Merriment, with loads of wonder, entertainment, and vendors

My store will remain locked for now as I have the Brighton Bazaar upcoming on thursday, after which I'll work on my usual post-convention inventorying and unlock it

Thank you so much to @justgamesrochester.bsky.social for running this amazing event!

Wanna hear something funny? I'm not very smart 😅. While doing my math for donations I accidentally donated 40% to Trans Lifeline (plus a little extra) and forgot to split it for the Trevor Project. So we ended up giving 60 PERCENT of our sales to the featured charities!

An image that reads "20% of Darker Horse Art sales this weekend will be donated to Trans Lifeline. An additional 20% of this weekends sales will be donated to the Trevor Project

My donation for Commander Sealed is locked in, 40% of sales will be split between @translifeline.org and @trevorproject.bsky.social! Come see me this weekend to get some cool stuff and benefit trans charities

A group of 11 resin life counters in various colors and inks

My first batch of life counters from @clericscomponents.bsky.social is done, and they look AMAZING! 🤩 These will debut at Commander Sealed this weekend to benefit trans charities

I'll have a batch of these ready for Commander Sealed!

My first successful print and assembly of the Yaymerino3d Deck Box, modified with a design by me. Alcohol ink was a bad choice for painting, but I am happy with the process and assembly! Hinges, magnet closure, large enough for 130 single sleeved cards!

A pile of Cleric's Components resin life counters, waiting to be sanded and painted

FINALLY getting the chance to sand and finish some more dice, right before Commander Sealed! Life has been upside down lately (no good photos because the photo booth is inaccessible atm) but I'm getting back to it!

Using the same opener that spambots do is NOT The way to get your question answered!

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:

1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;

2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;

3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

Got my Drachenfest sales total at last. Between commissions completed and my consignment sales, I was able to donate just over $500 to my two chosen charities! Really thankful to @drachenfest-us.bsky.social and the #larp crowd who made this possible and made me feel welcomed my first year 💜

Sorry I've been quiet lately, been taking a break from making things and being gentle with myself while dealing with some health stuff. I'll post when I get my final total from Drachenfest and make my donations at last, and I'll have some new stuff in the works for Commander Sealed!

These are lovely! They must be a lot of work to ink

I love love LOVE this idea! I've been puzzling over how to do something similar without having to hand paint each flag, I hope you dont mind if I take a little inspiration

This is so beautiful!

These are all so amazing 🥹

My view from my crafting area has me going hobbitcore

A series of 12 linocut designs with various foods on toast, like a fried egg and fruits

My "On Toast" #linocut series! Saw these bread erasers being used for stamps and picked some up for myself.

An image with the logos of my business and the Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights Los Angeles and Trans Lifeline. It reads "20% of my Drachenfest sales will go to CHIRLA and 20% will go to Trans Lifeline"

Hey everyone! I'm going to @drachenfest-us.bsky.social with @larpbox.bsky.social. I've gone back and forth about what charity to donate a % of my sales to, because its Pride Month but also a lot is going on in LA. But why not both?

My shop has gone into password protected mode while I crunch for Drachenfest! I'll be back with some new inventory in a couple weeks, wish my luck!

A 1/1 rat token, hand inked and painted. A black rat with a red medieval hood holds up a bell, the kind that you’d put on a cat collar. He has a metallic gold halo behind his head, and gold script indicating that he is a 1/1 Rat.

Do not ask for whom the bell tolls!
Experimenting with some metallic watercolors for this rat token -

There was a whole set that took place in the Forgotten Realms! And one for Baldur's Gate, too

Thank you! 💜 I'm so proud of these batches
