Last year, I got the privilege of working on the deluxe cover for SHIFT, a brand new TTRPG system, under the direction of Brian Walters (@hitpointpress.bsky.social).

It's currently on Kickstarter getting funded, so if you wanna give it a look, now's the time!

The Kickstarter reached its initial funding goal and there's lots more to check out!
