Now there’s a hole in the sky / and our superhero is trying to close it with her super-powers! From ‘Aberrant: With Great Power’, from @theonyxpath.bsky.social. (While I love comics, I’ve never been a superhero fan, so that’s why I always get a bit giddy whenever I talk about these.)

Paramedics everywhere: thank you for everything you do.

Was told today that my old college tutor & general illustration mentor Ron Tiner had died. Really sad. Rest in peace, Ron. Thank you for everything & passing on the fire.

I’m no Latin expert either, but I was wondering about that too, y’know…

Ha, I’m out of my depth already, but I’m going to say he must just be really nice. Now more than ever? Yeah, that’s it.

The ‘Aberrant: With Great Power…’ (which is a riff on what Uncle Ben from Spider-Man said) book is out now.

Hooey war robot makin’ factory from ‘Aberrant: With Great Power…’ tabletop RPG book, out from @theonyxpath.bsky.social. Yes, I poured all my adolescent robot love of @2000ad.bsky.social’s ABC Warriors, Terminator films and anime mecha into this and then just sorta freewheeled it.

Artwork of masked wrestlers punching through a wall.

Crime-busting, super-powered luchador masked Mexican wrestlers from the ‘Abberant: With Great Power….’ tabletop RPG from @theonyxpath.bsky.social. ‘The Justicieros’ here hunt down the cartels, only in this particular kind of mask and tights…

A picture in a frame. It is drawn in black ink on white paper. It shows a small mushroom-capped humanoid, riding a giant beetle. Several fungal "fronds" come out of the beetle's body, and are reaching up into the air.

This is #3 in a series of threads about Gloranthan art hanging on my walls. This one is so good, I bought it twice, first as a commission for my book, The Voralans, and here as the original hand-drawn ink art from @leeoconnor.bsky.social. In the book, this picture is in full colour, added digitally.

Ah, sweet! Cheers Brian! Great work getting it up on the wall!

Scientist getting zapped by weird science reactor from @theonyxpath.bsky.social’s ‘Aberrant: With Great Power’ superhero tabletop role-playing game. Looks like this’ll be what gives him weird powers then, chief. Zap!
The Kirby Crackle isn’t that strong in this, but it’s there..!

Pesky clients.

Ah, thanks folks! Much appreciated!

Superhero in space, with force field and matter manipulation powers. Space station busted? She’ll sort you out. From the ‘Aberrant: With Great Power’ RPG book from Onyx Path, out now.

And some more! The ducks and oak tree piece heading off to its new owner…

Some quick sketches from Chaosium Con UK recently.
Rivers of London, RuneQuest, & Traveller characters, Cthulhu Mythos tings, pets & stuff!

It’s all true! I was there, man! And this was loads of fun and it was great to meet you, Olga!

Merci beaucoup!

You guys have really gone for these (thank you!) so here’s some still photos of those playing cards. So they’re all gone for now, but there’ll be a Print on Demand version soon. Gotta reformat all the art & draw SOME 20+ EXTRA CARDS first..!

Far too kind of you!
Aw, yeah, it’d be nice to work on something else! No presh though..!

Whoah. Glad you like them!

Thanks man, super kind of you. I’ll shout about the print-on-demand set. A normal print run would probably be a thing for next year.
Thanks again for that sketch commission, it was fun.

Prudent! Thanks for picking one up!

😓

What’s that, BlueSky? You want another silly video in this thread? Well okay then!

Thanks Erik!

Actually, there might have been someone who might have had an idea to help out with that very possibility; but nothing concrete, don’t hold your breath, etc (trails off in VagueSpeak)…
