As a follow-up to last week's post about writing modules, I wrote another post on writing adventures for Cairn, and how that might be different than other OSR systems.

Last year,
@dungeonsnhammers.bsky.social
commissioned a miniature sculpt from legendary

based on my design for his heavy metal rules lite roleplaying game, Beefy Shotgun Wizards. I got three minis and my flatmate painted one of them. This was a milestone in my career.

Been working on this 17 × 44 inch canvas for more than five work days in total. The biggest single piece I've done by far with the exception of a mural I did in 2011. Layering watercolors is rewarding but time consuming.
