Conversation with SpiderForest

I talked with Mathieu Moyen awhile back about fantasy archetypes and playing with genre tropes for the SpiderForest podcast and you can check that out here if you're so inclined.  ...

Suntouched: the crappy display font I made for the language of the Sun

I'd planned for a long time to make a custom font to represent the Suntouched Nation's language in NTO; I wanted it to be legible but distinct from the comic's normal lettering and recall the Suntouched's overall design aesthetic (of which you'll see more later). I planned on this being a big projec...

Soon: pins

Not all of you follow me on Twitter so I thought I'd share these over here. As I pick at fulfilling the JHH pin Kickstarter I'm also picking at some new, non-NTO enamel pin designs that might interest DnD players. This is an early draw of a dungeoneer’s pack pin set; I’m also going to do an expl...

With the comic's update day falling right on April Fool's it was suuuuch a golden opportunity for Marshall Snowman to make a return, but alas I couldn't swing the time and figured I should probably focus the actual comic. Ah well. 

Cpt. Overvelde

Sketches for the final KS cameo character, based on the very generous Floris Overvelde. Along with Ben Fleuter's cameo character he'll be showing up real soon.

A huge thanks to Gus Carlson for illustrating this short! Your generous patronage allowed me to actually pay him a little something for his work.

NTO proper should pick back up the 25th, with book 10. I say "should" because I'm doing a con that weekend so it's possible I miss one last week of upda...

Cameo: Alex Ivanova

Do you read Sword Interval?  You should! It's excellent! But anyways its creator Ben Fleuter was kind enough to chip into the NTO Book 2 Kickstarter back in the day at the very generous c...

Dungeon maps, notes, GM resources?

So I might be doing a very short (like 4-5 session) DnD campaign soon (I am demo-ing the old, maligned 4e for 5e players who are curious about it); are you guys interested in my notes, maps, etc.? Generally speaking would you guys be interested in this kind of content at all? Like for example if I w...

Commission: Riot

A commission from last year for a very good friend (and Patron!) I really needed to get to.

This short short, drawn by Gus Carlson, is a sort of a Young Cutter adventure.  Hopefully by the time it's done I'm ready to dive properly into NTO...

Here ends Book 9. 

Next week I'm going to start running a Cutter & Ironwood related short short (5 pages, give or take) drawn by my good friend and Tourist Unknown creator Gus Carlson, who's previously drawn <...

Was your Vane pin lonely?

Guess what, folks -- this just went live. 

As with the Vane pin, this is a spur-of-the-moment, 2-week Make 100 campaign, and as with the Vane pin, if this makes its funding goal and gets made I'll be sending one to all active US & Canada Patrons who've pledged lifetime totals of $...
