More adventures in deliberately constrained and limited mini painting via using ONLY cheap Amazon acrylic pens (ok ok a bit of random flock I had too) This time: some purple space mens #warhammer #minpainting #killteam #spacemarines

bought myself hours of labour while i was on holiday. shoutout of the Porthmadog Model Shop! #waroftheworlds

the combination of an FDM printer and a load of cheap acrylic pens. it's by no means the best quality but it's faaaaast and eaaaaaasy and table ready in no time. quick easy terrain ftw #warhammer #killteam #terrain #tyranid #3dprinting

Took the TROLL KOMMANDOS out for a spin in a little 2v2 to intro some mates to killteam. good laugh. we got thrashed by space marines. so it goes. waaaagh etc #warhammer #killteam #wargaming

a combination of 3d prints and lots of kit bashing, proud to present my TROLL KOMMANDOS #killteam #warhammer #orks #trolls #minipainting Really really proud of these, my first proper table ready minis since I was like 14 lmao (I'm old now)

my hand looks like this // so his car look like this

Just feels like every material representation of masculinity for 12 year old boys, all crammed into a tiny digital space that will fit your screen. So farcical that I don't know how anyone working on or watching this production doesn't feel like their intelligence is being insulted.

can't recommend the DEAD BY DAYLIGHT board game enough. i love it bigly. - fun bluffing mechanics without falling into the cludge of being a lying game - feels really balanced - does a great job of feeling like the videogame #deadbydaylight #boardgames

i, a lowly computer programmer who doesn't have an ounce of artistic fibre in his body, am still inordinately proud of the art/graphics/layout I did for Weird Weird West tmcgry.itch.io/weird-weird-... #ttrpg #art #design #layout #rpg

priming minis at night for The Aesthetic #warhammer #miniatures #minipainting #wargaming

work continues on the forbidden lands hack, thiiiiink i've got a fun new combat system clocked out, tl;dr what if hurting the monster was really hard unless you put yourself in danger a lot? follow it as tmcgry.itch.io/feral-lands to keep up with it! #rpg #ttrpg #rpgdesign #osr

who needs a dedicated hobby space when you have a dining room table and a penchant for eating your tea by balancing a plate on your knees on the sofa #warhammer #minipainting

done a variety of horrible little mens. had the models lying around for aaaaages, dno what they're even from, like a magazine or something? done some orange, some sickly greens and greys and purples, one dude in a nice jacket from sainsburys tu (probably)

I do be flocking (and dry brushing and a quick wash) #warhammer #frostgrave #terrain #3dPrinting

tmcgry.itch.io/feral-lands/... Brainwave at 00:26am while brushing my teeth about what the game should be called

given a little #delaque #necromunda boy some man of minis tirith arms. spear with a battery pack lfg #warhammer #kitbash

tmcgry.itch.io/fangs-claws-... every grizzled monster hunter needs a reason to do something stupid #rpgdesign #rpg #ttrpg #osr

more tmcgry.itch.io/fangs-claws-... this isn't exactly where i want it to be, but i want the journeying and downtime and resting to feel more gamey (like bitd) and while this definitely needs some more tuning, i think im on the right track #rpgdesign #ttrpg #osr

placeholder front cover for FCC i reckon between the diagetic quote and the "tags" im hammering home what the game is enough just on the cover have a poke around the pre-alpha pre-playtest now for tmcgry.itch.io/fangs-claws-... #rpg #ttrpg #rpgdesign

tmcgry.itch.io/fangs-claws-... v0.45 is up! tldr; im slowly knitting meat onto these bones, and also Trespasser is very good #ttrpg #rpg #gamedesign #rpgdesign

theres loads of rpgs featuring low fantasty settings, monsters, hex maps, dungeon explorations, combat systems, overworld travel... none of them _quite_ fit my taste so im making my own tmcgry.itch.io/fangs-claws-... #ttrpg #rpg #osr

figure its time to fix #ttrpg #tactical #combat hexagons are the bestagons #rpg

missed some updates for handouts.tomg.cool over the festive period, but coming soon - stacks of books! #ttrpg #rpg #handouts #handoutbuilder

design problem solved: you want a #fitd "post-score extra bullshit" table in a setting where "heat" and "try to avoid lots of exposure" AREN'T things? make the players confirm a plan and punish them when they dont stick to it lmao #ttrpg #rpg #bitd #fitd

Another piece I wrote several years ago now; "6K'ish words from a vampire's diary - An actual-play of Thousand Year Old Vampire" tomg.cool/blog/2021-05... Must come back to this game, I loved it the few times I've spent an afternoon with it. #ttrpg #rpg #tyov #soloplay #actualplay

Finally took the time to migrate all my longer written bits off medium, they're all at tomg.cool/blog/ now! Guess I'll post about them a bit; if you're new to d&D you should read tomg.cool/blog/2018-08... and it's follow ups and also tomg.cool/blog/2019-02... #dnd #dnd5e #beginner #rpg #ttrpg

here's my blog post about how people who use generative ai are deeply estranged from themselves and reality itself, their souls drifting rudderless in open water, asphyxiating www.joewintergreen.com/i-think-the-...

oh yea er #rpg #ttrpg #handouts #rpghandouts er fuckin #rpgtool

october update for my rpg handout builder tool! tmcgry.itch.io/tomg-rpg-han... will post the update here too as a thread🧵 as always, if you just wanna see whats new, the tool is available for free no login, etc. at handouts.tomg.cool

experimenting with a new look for the handout builder, some floating panels and bubbles. think it maybe makes it a little less "muddled" than having everything inside 1 big form #rpg #handoutbuilder #ttrpg

its the height of spooky season soon so play one of my spooky rpgs with your mates while getting tanked tmcgry.itch.io/john-is-a-li... everyone is john but frankenstein tmcgry.itch.io/sexy-hairdre... its in the name tmcgry.itch.io/werewolf-pro... its also in the name #rpg #spooky #scary #ttrpg

progress slowed down on handouts.tomg.cool a little (primarily cus I've been caught up with my new #forbiddenlands game lfg) but bunch of cool stuff landed over the last few weeks like... #rpg #handout #builder #generator

i wanted my #votann little floaty boys to _actually_ float (ish), so I snipped them off their "bases", then used said bases to anchor some study wire (stolen from a spiral notepad lmao) to their hollow innards. #warhammer #kitbashing

My second submission to the @onepagerpgjam.bsky.social, based on Honey Heist by @gshowitt.bsky.social and Micro Mysteries! by @tombola.bsky.social 👻 In Finished Business, you're already dead...kind of. You're half-human, half-ghost and biding your time. featherforge-games.itch.io/finished-bus...

stupid idea posting this at 1am lmao crystal ball rpg handout! free and easy to use! no login/signup required! come get it while its hot! #rpg #handouts #vtt #ttrpg

heres a fun one i thought of while walking the dog earlier... 🔮 CRYSTALL BALL 🔮 use any image, real "bulge" effect, some minor lighting effects. will add some more stands, tweak things etc. soon! <3 live now at handouts.tomg.cool/crystal-ball ! #ttrpg #rpg #handouts #vtt #HandoutBuilder

oh my god it doesn't happen when you're on windows just fucking shoot me

oh fucking OF COURSE chrome doesn't apply displacement maps correctly fuck meeeeee ma. well, yah'll just gonna have to live with it (firefox top, chrome bottom, notice that towards the centre of the image chrome is a little "wobbly")

ok im really proud of this and it was a real f**k to do **"star-wars style" sci-fi hologram builder that works with ANY transparent PNG** just plug you image in, drop your background in, and customise any options you like #rpg #ttrpg #handout #starwars live now on handouts.tomg.cool

dno why this took me so long - proper backgrounds are now in place on handouts.tomg.cool flat colours, gradients, and custom images. will maybe have a go curating a bunch of images for people to pick from to save them some time #rpg #handouts #ttrpg #vtt

ok this one needs a little more time to cook (more styling options needed) but... 🗺️ maps! 🗺️ with legends and pins! maybe not SUPER useful (all maps have labels lets be honest) but this seems like if you need it in a pinch, it'll be MEGA useful #rpg #handouts #ttrpg #vtt

the hardest part of doing props like this, real objects with superimposed text, is that all the good stock photo sites are now chocka with ai slop 😢

keen observers will notice the screen BULGES properly, like a real CRT! that was an absolute fucking nightmare to get working properly! you're welcome! all worth it tho - i can now spam my players discord gc with in-universe ominous screen readings :D #rpg #ttrpg #handouts handouts.tomg.cool

latest in my #ttrpg #handouts builder: 🖥️CRT SCREENS!🖥️ making cool screen handouts for #mothership just became a 5 second job live now at handouts.tomg.cool ! no login, no payment, etc. improvements to come soon! (think; easier to change paddings and spaces, etcs.) ⚡

ok i was supposed to do more paper types but i had an idea and couldnt stop and im so happy with it; wooden sign stuff! all rendered totally in DOM in the browser perfect to tease some locations to your players ⚔️ coming soon to handouts.tomg.cool #handouts #vtt #rpg #ttrpg #webdev

game design thoughts: writing tactics role playing games is hard. if i were writing a wargame, it would be easier. i'll post a little thread here

there is literally nothing stopping you from making a #ttrpg #handout like this and dropping it in your #rpg group chat without any context or warning

handouts.tomg.cool is coming along - no new content, but spent all last night refactoring my prototype code to not be awful. Bit more to do then I reckon I'm in a good place to start slamming in some more templates for #rpg handouts! #ttrpg #vtt #handout #builder

im so good at using social media that i took the effort to record a video clip of the thing then forgot to include a link 💀 handouts.tomg.cool
