Creatures of Azamar Part Four

Here are five new artwork of mystical and deadly beings of the Azamar fantasy roleplaying setting, commissioned by Wicked North Games. A Fiend which vomits its caustic stomach acid upon its prey and gobbles them up whole. Feline-like Fiends with four eyes and four arms. Revenants are actually magical balls of flame that can transform itself into fiery visage of an undead warrior. Saturians are extremely attractive human-like Fiends, until they unfold their maw to feed. Syetans are hideously ugly Fiends with three hoofed legs and very asymmetrical features on their faces.

A Trio of Horrific Monsters

After finishing up the artwork in the previous entry, Vonschlick Productions sent some more light jobs my way: three mostrous horrors, also to be used by tabletop gamers. The art orders were for a werewolf, a vampire and a monster of my choice – which I drew a monstrous burrowing beast from the dark, slimy depths of the Earth’s crust. So here they are: [[image:vonschlick-horror-werewolf.jpg:Not Michael J. Fox, nosiree:center:0]] Werewolf [[image:vonschlick-horror-vampire.jpg:A Nosferatu-class aortic biter.:center:0]] Vampire [[image:vonschlick-horror-chthonic-horror.jpg:Shudde M’ell from entry #734:center:0]] Chthonic Horror Again, wait for the high-resolution images to be released in Vonschlick’s catalogue on their DriveThruRPG.com catalogue by year’s end for your gaming use.

Irfan Meets Mia

Once upon a time, Irfan’s Pak Alang got married.  Yesterday, we all visited them at the hospital to see their new baby Mia who was born a couple of days before. [[image:2010-11-20-irfan-meets-mia00.jpg:Scream! Scream!:center:0]] When we first arrived, Mia was located in her bassinet in the post-natal ward’s nursery with perhaps half a dozen other screaming babies. [[image:2010-11-20-irfan-meets-mia01.jpg:A second cousin:center:0]]  Irfan poses with his second cousin, once Mia was transferred back to her mother.

Congrats, Iwan and Siti!

Creatures of Azamar Part Three

Here are four new artwork of creatures of the Azamar roleplaying setting, commissioned by Wicked North Games. The diminutive Foragers, denizens of the deep, are raiders of the surface world. The mysterious and venomous hydreans appear to be floating jellyfish that are attracted to magic use in Azamar. Not the form of a traditional kraken, but it would be quite interesting to be camped out on an island which would submerge without warning. Zull Huge, lumbering zulls have tough scales on their hide and are able to burrow with their paws.

The Zombie Apocalypse with Microlite20

After three episodes of The Walking Dead on AMC, I thought I’d try a zombie game scenario with Irfan. I was itching to try out the free Microlite20 system, so I adapted it the M20 Modern plug-in to come up with a simple zombie apocalypse scenario. Irfan wanted to play a sheriff, he rolled up his three characteristics, chose a Smart Hero class (which gives him +1 to Knowledge) and took a Law Enforcement starting occupation (which gives him another +1 to Knowledge and a +1 to Physical). The game began with Irfan coming back to town from a three-day camp-out in the woods. He had with him a sniper rifle. As he walked up the road to town, he spotted a car at the roadside. Upon a closer look, he noticed a figure slumped back in the seat. It was a corpse, dead for perhaps a day or two. […]

An Anomid

An Anomid Tech Specialist

Anomids are aliens which have no vocal cords in the Star Wars galaxy. Over millennia, they developed and communicate with each other via an elaborate sign language using their six-fingered hands. However, when communicating with the galaxy at large, Anomids wear a voice synthesiser mask which allows them to speak to other species. This RPG character artwork of a teenaged Anomid tech specialist was requested by “Michael” at the Star Wars Artists’ Guild forum. Click here to access a larger image on DeviantArt.

Creatures of Azamar Part Two

As mentioned earlier, here are some more artwork commissioned for the Azamar fantasy setting sourcebook for the Cinema6 RPG system from Wicked North Games, this time in alphabetical order. The intelligent Asazis are fearsome arachnid-like creatures with a centaur-like torso, but hardly any human-like features. Twisted by the Fracturing a magical event in Azamar, these creatures come in many shapes though most appear as or close to the illustrated image. Gaunts are faceless, bony and winged creatures with a scorpion-like tail. Although quilled and scaled, Shangilars look like large wolves with six eyes. The venomous uumul are as large as humans and are thought to be long-lived – centuries old. Weth are mounts of the local Wyvine race that resemble a giant beaked worm with many feet and large wings. Wind stalkers are massive beasts that soar and glide the skies of Azamar, but it can also dive and submerge […]

Trick or Treat! ROARRRRR!

Last year a buzzy bee baby graced us at Halloween. This year, we went with mammalian and feline, an inspiration from the zoo visit at Allie’s 26 month birthday, and since Allie does love cats so much. So… [[image:2010-halloween01.jpg:Happy smiling lion:center:0]] In the jungle, the mighty jungleThe lion sleeps tonight… Just keep that song going while you read the rest of this entry, ok? I know you’ve seen the lion costume before since we posted spoilers in the 27 month birthday entry, and I toyed with the idea of skipping the Halloween entry, but this year we actually went trick or treating! Only 5 houses, our nearest neighbors, but still this is momentous, right? Allie’s first trick or treat filled Halloween? Here’s more of our little lioncub running around in the house: [[image:2010-halloween03.jpg:mrowwwwww bashful lion:center:0]] [[image:2010-halloween04.jpg:Wait where’s my mane?:center:0]] [[image:2010-halloween05.jpg:Hey what’s in a lion’s paw?:center:0]] Finally it is time for […]
