Idk how others feel, but for me it adds texture to the art! Don't think it's the right terminology, but it feels like it balances perfectly against the smooth background. Really makes the Kaijus POP off the page!

๐Ÿงก was this done with acyclic pens or via a brush? (Or something else?)

Damn. Did you know that Blade Runner (1982) is a fascinating movie? Maybe not "good", but that's a subjective and meaningless term in this instance. I understand why it inspired so many artists now

The Mecha TTRPG Newsletter You are about to discover that mecha ttrpgs are legion. Or more likely you already know, and that's why you're signing up. It seems as if a new mech game is coming out every month, and so many of these games are worth reading, if not playing. How do you

Back on my business for the last week of the month! That means last chance for you to submit community content to the mecha ttrpg newsletter.

If you are releasing a new mech ttrpg, wrote a blog or review, or just want to shout out a cool mecha project, submit the form below!

A picture of a paper plate and the bottom of an irn bru pallett being used as a journal to play Death Road Services. Anna's handwriting is nearly illegible anyway but can be assumed to be a hilarious story of post-apocalyptic nonsense.

My post-apocalyptic solo journalling game about running a service station on the Death Road is finally out! blackwellwriter.itch.io/death-road-s...

And the best part? You write your story on actual rubbish! Cereal boxes, soup labels, other RPGs, these are your canvas!

I don't have the mental energy to voice my specific opinions, but I've had similar ideas in the past but also never got to the point where it all "clicked" and made it to play testing. But I think a system like this with some adjusting could be great for "Tactical Play-By-Post TTRPGs" ๐Ÿค˜

OMG. Just starting to pull up the pitch data, and was surprised to find a last minute name at the top of the pitch speed list. Then we looked up the details.

The fastest pitch in S3 was a 144.7 MPH Cutter ... WHICH RESULTED IN A HIT BY PITCH.
