A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO TTRPG ART COMMISSIONING AND LICENSING

It's done! Here is my guide to art commissioning, licensing, and art direction in TTRPGs. It's free to see, has contract and brief templates, and plenty of resources to aid in art literacy in the space.

A simple drawing of a peeled citrus fruit, a stone incense burner, a snake, and three coins from pre-colonial Philippines.

A simple drawing of a stoneware tea cup, a pink lotus blossom, a brown hand, and a shed deer antler.

Small spells for prosperity and compassion.

Happy Turkey Day to my American friends. I am very grateful to have all of you in my life. Hope your day is filled with love, laughter and calories.

(I'm moving one of my biggest twitter threads here, cause I think it will be helpful to keep it alive)
A thread with free resources (or super cheap) that we can use on #ttrpg creation.
Basically images, illustrations, vectors, fonts and so on

Saving this to return to later!

Building out dinosaur encounters for Omu for my Tomb of Annihilation players! Looking for some cool and weird beasties to throw their way. I already gave them a Therizinosaurus, which was a delightful encounter (they named her Therese).

Seeing people join saying 'don't want an echo chamber, disagreement is important'.

Yes, tell me you don't like ketchup and prefer HP sauce. I'll talk.

But if your disagreement is with feminism, racism, trans rights, LGBTQ+ rights, or any other fundamental rightness of the world, then fuck off.

I had to make it so I didn't end up buying doubles before my stock was exhausted haha.

I'll have to look into their stuff! A lot of my hoard is from @fridaytea.com , they have a lot of great nerdy blends though my personal favorites are Fate Control, Papa Wolf, and Maple Houjicha ^.^

Ooh nice, what kind of tea? I've got a whole spreadsheet cataloging my tea hoard...

For sure. Thinking of making some tea to go with it.

Chilling out and enjoying the rain. Had a nice workout earlier and a tasty lunch.

"Met Liz Truss. Fuck this."

Hell yeah Bluesky!

Flawless look as ever! Hi Cyn <3

Yikes.

Either is fine with me, but this place is probably better cause it's not linked to a tech billionaire.

I also put together a starter pack for Indie #TTRPG artists and graphic designers!

Know of anyone I should include? All recommendations welcome! (even yourself ❤️)

Her day job was a vet at the local zoo and she had a monstrously large rescue dog called Titan, whose sole job was being a Good Boy (he did excellently). She ended up in a triad relationship with a friendly werewolf who ran a local dog shelter, and a Mystique-esque shifter gentleman thief.

Saved all my upgrade points and near the finale of the campaign, bought her the ability to turn into fictional creatures too. My poor GM suddenly had to cope with her being able to turn into things like phoenixes.

One of my groups wrapped a 2 year Worlds in Peril campaign recently! I loved my shapeshifter girl-- basically Beast Boy, but not green. I could use my zoology knowledge freely to cause problems for the GM!

Jonathan Frakes Wants Your Attention, And You Must Not Give It To Him | Tiny Table Index Jonathan Frakes Wants Your Attention, And You Must Not Give It To Him is on the Tiny Table Index, the internet's definitive directory for solo and duet tabletop roleplaying games.

I've been searching for solo and duet #TTRPGs a lot recently to add to my... every growing list of titles to add to tinytableindex.com and every so often one just tickles me.

Anyone want to be haunted by the ghost of (still living) Johnathan Frakes?
