I just finished "The Whisperer in Darkness" by the #HPLHS on recommendation from @fadedquillgaming.bsky.social and was not disappointed! Very well done and fun flick, and if you have Hoopla through your library, it's available for checkout there!

Agreed, I've got several! I'm actually painting Van with a friend for the month, and have done Drak already. They did a line of Bonesylvanian familiars, too, and here's the cat from that set :)

That is very ambitious! Is this for a specific game or campaign you're planning?

“The Herald of Horror has risen…”

“When the air stills and shadows twist, the Herald of Horror draws near. Faceless and unholy, it sees only fear—and those who hear its claws have already been marked.”

Every brush stroke, whether 'outside the lines' or blobby or misblended or utterly perfect, is your mark on the physical word. Don't underestimate how important that is

The sprite gang from the Mythwinds boardgame is finally all painted up and ready for playtime.

Might try to go to the park and get some themed shots but just happy with how they all turned out so didn't want to wait.

Hello! Long time no post.

Here’s a recent bust from Mindwork Studio I painted.
The background was a bit of work but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

A painted miniature. A dark skinned girl with brown hair covering her eyes, donning the armor of a hylian knight as depicted in the legend of Zelda games for the Nintendo 64. She holds a large halberd with a blue and gold triforce emblem on the haft.
