The Immortal King is taking significantly longer than planned... because I went for significantly more detail than planned. And because I was offline essentially since the 19th until today.

BUT HE IS GETTING CLOSER!

The Lost Generation of Angels
The art depicts a teenage angel with long wings and a prosthetic arm. He holds brushes and spray cans for graffiti. It is surrounded by skeletons of archaic fish and metal pipes. On the background is a tyrannosaurus skull with cherubs and Old Testament angels painted on it.

Obligatory:
An image from somewhere on social media; it reads "our dwarven engineers came up with a new armor design protecting against the typical injuries sustained by warriors returning from battles in the netherworld" The image is of a stick figure with red dots on the limbs, and a fantasy female warrior with only her limbs armoured and her torso exposed. This is a skit on the classic WW2 survivorship bias example (look on wikipedia) and the skimpy armour of female characters in fantasy literature.

COMIC: What Artists Do
PANEL 1: A black woman with a grey streak in her curly hair, stands at a canvas on an easel, holding a paint bush. Narration text: PAINTER WOMAN: Give me a canvas and I will lift your imagination! PANEL 2: A latino man with thinning grey hair and a thick grey mustache, holds a book open. Narration text: AUTHOR MAN: Give me a page, and I will transport your soul! PANEL 3: A young red headed woman sits ona stool, wearing a plaid shirt and holding a guitar. Narration text: MUSICIAN WOMAN: Give ma a microphone, and I will fill your heart! PANEL 4: A portly man with long, stringy brown-grey hair, wearing denim overalls without a shirt, holds a finger in the air while motioning to his computer screen, where an image of Darth Vader is shown. Vader is holding up two thumbs up, and has 6 nipples down his front, protruding like that one terrible Batman costume. Narration text: A.I. ARTIST Man: Give me two server farms powered by a hydroelectric dam, and Imma generate a Vader with six nipples. ——— Want 5,000 more comics like this?

DM Tip from a 9 year old - If you want to make your games scarier and more intense, base them on real life or historical events.

I came across this sign on a walk today. I think it's pretty great.

Bonus: it replaced a sign asking people to pick up their dog's poop with an extreme close up of someone's boot stepping in poop.

The new sign is much nicer to look at.
A sign with an image of an illustrated fairy sitting under a mushroom. The text on the sign reads: "Leave mushrooms where you find them. Harvesting in parks is prohibited. Mushrooms are important habitats for fairies*. Please leave them in place for the animals and cultures that depend on them, and so that the fairies can stay dry. *The CRD does not acknowledge the existence or non-existence of fairies."
