I've heard of it, yeah

Yeah, it's a shame nothing ever came of Dundjinni being updated.
MapForge works on Mac
dry radish
MapForge isn't one I've heard of... off to the Ecosiary!

There was a kickstarter for it a while back.

Can anyone decipher this for me?
GraphicConverter detected a retina display.
How would you like to see pictures displayed?

Bah! I give up.

Macs are not something I'm experienced with, especially modern ones
dry radish
The Mac isn't the problem. It's a PEBKAC issue.

I believe that's the scale of the image displayed - smaller at 1:1 retina:regular resolution or larger at 1:4 retina:regular

World Engine by d20 Pro might be something else to look into, not sure if it's on sale to non-kickstarter backers yet though
dry radish
I want to build battlemaps, not worlds.

I think it's supposed to do both. I barely looked at it when I realised it was a web based thing

DM Note: Make ochre jellies look delicious. CON saving throw if devoured. On a failed save, you are now controlled by the ochre jelly.

Yes! And the Ocre Jelly must now smell like cashew brittle!

Anyone else get a 3D pen and then realize they cannot use one without an amount of skill? 😩
Everything I make is garbage
placid coral
Oh just keep practicing, you'll get it.😎
vast harbor
What did you use to make that, btw, @placid coral ? It looks so... moist 😩 it's awful but on point.
placid coral
I used Ochre Yellow Sculpy over tin foil, cooked it, then glazed it with Sculpy Glaze and let dry. I use a bit extra and tried to make it look slimy, shiney and gloopy. @vast harbor I'm glad you liked it!😎
vast harbor
The extra glaze definitely worked for this project, A++!

a druzard eh? I like it, the fey familiar plus the yew wand is awesome! and who doesn't like a skimiter?
heavy zephyr
i played around a lot with builds of wizards with swords. rogue wizards and fighter wizards are probably better builds but i really came to like the wise wizard that can fight and also turn into animals early on

yeah i ran a game there recently
Dealing with a druid who was snatching the power of the Earthmother's children. The Pack, Leviathan, and Unicorn
dry radish
The ffolk are an offshoot of the... damn, I can't remember. Starts with a 't'. A human ethnicity from inland Faerun who emigrated to the islands and pushed the northlanders out, which is why there's animosity between them
delicate nimbus

By a weird coincidence, I'm currently playing a character called Abel, and I'm Charles.

well ab31 is short for Arcane Bipedal designation 31
he is a specilized warforged for alchmey, brewing and herbalism
he is.... very dumb.

Mine does and thanks
gleaming rose
Kind of makes me curious what the kid would look like between a Tiefling and a Dragonborn
remote oyster
i think they have the build of a dragonborn but the features of a teifling or they other way around
flint ridge
Depends too on the Tiefling's ancestry. While Asmodeus is the most common, and I think actually managed a blood curse to kill all that aren't his spawn, they could have different and therefore lack the horns. I'm not sure if that's in the SCAG variant.
Here is the lore on it: https://www.dndbeyond.com/compendium/rules/scag/races-of-the-realms#Tieflings
For example under variant there are physical features that would make you resemble Graz'zt: https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/grazzt

Oh woah those look really nice!
grim ivy
@stone light
I gotta ask, what's their last name?
For the lovely couple you've been posting
stone light
Donar Silverskale and Volta Grimsbane
@grim ivy They are progressive and Volta said she would take his last name when he could be her in combat.
grim ivy
beat?
Hmn, depending on type of cleric
you could do the good ol'
maximum lightning/thunder damage trick
stone light
he is a life Cleric
grim ivy
Ah, gotcha
stone light
the story goes he was training to be a theif until he stole from the wrong mob boss and he was beaten into the gournd and left for dead, some cleric from the church of bahamut found him and nursed him back to health
grim ivy
And Volta?
stone light
so he became a cleric, and while he was on walk about her ran across a town that was overrun with gnolls.
most of the villagers were dead except a half orc woman that had managed to survive, her managed to beat a few off her, and then ran with her over his shoulder for a few days before getting back to a temple and nursing her back to health
and she too the vows of apaladin even though she probably would have ended up a bard as she performed in a tavern.

Next god on the list: The Dawnwaker.

Nice armor designs!
hoary sorrel
Why thank you! I had absolutely no idea what his armor should look like so I Hail Mary-ed it and the commissioner liked it. XD
And thank you General! And you could throw me a request but I may not be able to get to it since I’ve got a couple commission jobs lined up I have to tend to.
proven estuary
ok! i see with your artwork skill you must be busy! I'll get back to you one day i suppose!

It's best to ask an artist for commissions. Their talent does deserve to be paid for, just like any other good or service.
proven estuary
I dont have money...i did not know what a commission was...and that it was paid. Sorry!
hoary sorrel
Oh no no it’s okay! That’s how we learn, by asking questions. 😄

flint ridge
It is entirely up to you. Only question is, are those brown scraps supposed to be the armor, or is this their off-duty clothing?
hearty flare
He only wears studded leather armor, nothing fancy. So this is more of off duty clothing. But that's definitely something i should probably keep in mind if I redraw him
cold yoke
i love his character design! Your shading techniques are awesome too O.O

@hearty flare its great may i may one suggestion though and it may just be me but it looks like his torso and legs dont line up just right

either way its fantastic im terrible at drawing characters im better at maps
hearty flare
@vale scaffold Thank you so much for pointing that out! I didn't even notice it!
vale scaffold
not a problem again it just looked a little off to me here allow me to share as well
Marked and unmarked. The unmarked is backlit after tracing my original copy. The continent of Hilocrawth
The marked version is more cluttered than I would like but that’s what two copies are for right
hearty flare
The amount of detail you put into this is stunning! I can see why you're really good at maps!
vale scaffold
It’s easy cause it starts as abstract then you just detail it down from there, add bodies of water, squiggle along the edges of your guidelines. If I were to do a full page and I didn’t have the edges of the continent it would be a much different situation. I’m just working on making small maps for each city, town and village now. Lots and lots to draw and write still even though the campaign has already begun haha
hearty flare
hahaha I feel you there, I'm scrambling to make maps myself for my own campaign that I'm runnjng
vale scaffold
Yeah, when I get my tax return I’m thinking of investing in a pc and start making maps that way.
hearty flare
Even if you think it's ”easy” it still looks super good and the shape of an actual continent
Oooo, I heard there are some really good PC mapmakers out there
vale scaffold
Easier to save digital copies rather than 47 individual pieces of paper. And yeah it’s easier than characters for me for sure haha.
hearty flare
^hahaha makes sense
vale scaffold
If you ever need a hand or some extra input on any maps you make id love to help. I’m a bit of an architectural buff so I’m fairly passionate about it 😃
hearty flare
I just love how you have such diverse biomes in there! I'm sure you're adventuring party will love exploring all the corners
vale scaffold
yeah one of my pcs is fairly traveled already as he is a bard but i havent gotten the chance to actually describe the areas and such so it will be great once they start getting around
hearty flare
It's always good to have a visual representation for the players. I may be mistaken(you might already have it and I'm just missing it), but it could be cool to have a desert. I feel like a lot of campaigns don't have those and it could be really interesting habitat for unique monsters and creative/memorable/magical cities
But honestly, it's so amazing already that it might not even be needed
vale scaffold

or is there a more appropriate room for that?

Considering the questions might find answer in images, I'd say you can post them here

ok i decided to not be as lazy and draw my own character
it will be posted in a sec
Here is Ahashë
she is a pirate
icy storm
that's quite the arsenal you have there
proven estuary
yeah 2 daggers, 2 swords, a longsword...shes gonna be a blademaster
wicked yoke
Nice! That's very kind of you.
So let's see... A forge cleric human, I think. A tabaxi rogue, perhaps? Tiefling rogue, maybe a swashbuckler, or maybe a bloodhunter or fighter (hard to tell), and a tiefling of some class I couldn't say.
stone light
heh they are Sylvian (Half wood elf/Ranger/Hunter), Lothar (Assimar/Wizard/Bladesinger), Rezana, (Tabaxi/Bard/lore) and Ashleigh, (Human/Cleric/Forge)
Ash is pretty obvious

i feel they are front heavy

Ah, well that's probably a conversation for another channel 😛

Thank you. He likes to be fancy and well-cultured. High society and all that.

sweet
wicked yoke
What's funny is that all my fellow players in his group don't even know what class he is! He rolled like a god, so he's gotten to screw around with some extra feats he might not have gotten otherwise.

@stone light I love that so much

Hiho! new to the server, Came for all of the art. Amazing to see all of the art/mini's and more

Welcome! And enjoy our little gallery.

Thank you! Your Dragonborn looks great 👌🏻

He's actually a lizardfolk.

You're not the first to make that mistake ;P
I posted his other image further up a few days back.

I'm not sure what the policy on reposts is, so you might just have to scroll up and find it yourself. It'll be easy to pick out.
steady marten
Oooh Samurai
that's neat! the art looks great. It's still very hard for me to draw characters that are sitting chairs or couches, they always look weird when I do
wicked yoke
Oh, I didn't draw it 😛
steady marten
I drew one of my characters, a Drow Barbarian not too long ago
wicked yoke
Neat!

steady marten
Thank you! Yeah, I read about all the subclasses of the barbarian and this one sounded the coolest to me
wicked yoke
Well, you're certainly very good.

that, my friend, looks like official art
steady marten
Thank you very much! I'm trying to draw some more of my characters and some of the characters of the group I'm in

Well, depending on if you do commissions, I might be interested at some point in the future. If you post somewhere, feel free to send me a link.

I’ve started work on making homebrew potion cards and have had them professionally printed
agile rock
Pretty!
wicked yoke
Those would be neat to have if I had an in-person game.

I could make them digitally too. I was thinking of making a catalog with coupons inside to redeem discounts in game. The potions are from an in game magic shop franchise called Salazars Potion Emporium

A sprite of a magic item I cooked up for a campaign as possible future reward for my players
A staff meant less for casting and more for smashing

Looks like something my Zealot barbarian/War Cleric would love
ivory egret
Looks like something a monk would use to slow down time and smash their opponent with!
Staff of Time Stop
Looks great!
digital minnow
Thanks!
It actually doesn't offer any spells or effects like that, I originally had ideas like that but I decided to do something different with it. Been a while though
I think it was: 1d6 Bludgeoning, Versatile (1d8). On a successful melee attack, roll a 1d10. On a 1, nothing happens. On a 2-9, the hourglass shatters and deals 1d4 piercing damage to the target and can't be smashed again until repaired. At the start of your next turn the hourglass turns back time and reforms, reapplying the piercing damage as the glass pulls from the victim, double if the target healed between the two applications of damage. On a 10, the staff deals the piercing damage but also applies the effects of Faerie Fire to the target until the hourglass reforms, as the target is coated in swirling sand.
I actually have a few others, like a bubble rapier
And an Eldritch spear
agile rock
The bubble rapier!! I love it!
timid echo
Omg the Eldritch Spear is everything
lilac yew
I immediately thought of Bubbles from Finding Nemo at the rapier. Brilliant!

I enjoy it. I use Dungeon Painter.

Already looks better than what I was able to put together in Affinity lol

That looks like an awesome program. Wish I had a reason to homebrew a world. 😄

Wonderdraft uses Wine on Mac, which makes it a non-starter for me.

Wonderdraft aint free! 😦
dry radish
It doesn't even have a demo version.
proven estuary
i see that Wonderdraft has no free alternative...
that is the same site
I am using Hexographer

Watched the video on Wonderdraft's site. very impressive. I'll give it a go later on.

Reminds a bit on Inkarnate, but much more complete and versatile
azure cradle
I use Inkarnate now, and I will happily take a superior alrernative if it works as advertised.
humble turret
heres some maps i made
in about 20 mins
with wonderdragt
all in wonder draft, words too
im not very good at making maps
but this was very easy andf they turned out pretty nice
analog mist
this is one i made on Inkarnate (free version)
humble turret
yeah, i would say my main different with inkarnate and wonder draft is the sense of scale
inkarnate has very specific size restrictions to it's maps and the mountains are not super easy to scale to a map of a larger area
analog mist
yeah, gotta make the scale yourself, if you use the really small tool on Inkarnate it helps make things look bigger
humble turret
also inkarnate's labeling system is not great
analog mist
agreed
humble turret
inkarnate is a perfectly serviceable local campaign map making tool, especialy if you're willing to finish the map in photoshop
adding city indicators and words
but if you want it all in one with a few more features (such as the paths and river tool)
then i think wonderdraft is worth 20 bucks
analog mist
i got into D&D before i got a job so making maps on Inkarnate was the best i could do, now i work so much i don't have the time to make them if i wanted to lol
analog mist
i like making the maps and then using them on Divinity Original Sin 2's Game Master mode
there i can set the city pins, name them, get general forests and whatnot
azure cradle
Made using?

oh man, now i want a full campaign set in ice

Here's A VTT mockup I was thinking of for DND Beyond. It would e sort of like first person table top Simulatoresque.
Dice Tray: In the storage area (slim space in the dice tray), there'd be a UI that DM uses to request roll. Upon clicking the dice, a UI element would pop up next to that particular dice representing the amount of dice will be rolled. After clicking all the dice you wish to roll, all the dice selected will be thrown onto the tray area where the count willl begin. The tray area space can be cleared upon clicking a UI button called clear dice tray.
Character Sheets: Why reinvent the wheel. The character sheets offered from DnD Beyond are immaculate. Allow users to interface the game objects as if they had the web browser open.
Spells: Just for representation sake, it'd be cool to have spell/monster/mini handouts of some of your most used items on the table that you could pan at during the session.
Initiative Tracker (not shown: Based on Encounter Builder, the initiative tracker would update at DMs command.
Battle Map: Fog of War not shown, maps would be controlled by DM and could be Panned/Zoomed/Edited to add effects/replaced with video snippets, gifs, etc.).
primary navigation would be movement of mouse to move the user's head, scroll would be used to zoom in on objects. Upon focusing on certain objects, UI elements would pop up that prompt the user to interact with the particular object (i.e. roll dice, focus on character sheet, focus on spell, wildshape handout, focus on battle map, DMs would have a much larger toolset of options like clearing fog during a dungeon crawl, changing out maps, giving/taking specific handouts as needed.

Water Elemental Myrmidon I painted a few months ago

Oooh, that's neat. How long did that take?

Probably a hour or two, gave it a day to dry with clear coat afterwards

Woah
The elemental myrmidons are some of my favourite enemies, and that just makes me like them more
azure cradle
Gosh dang, I really need to get into painting some minis.
I've got the tools, just can't get the gumption
kindred scarab
I don't really have the time to anymore
New job and all that
That Myrmidon was the last thing I painted, so it looks better than my first wave of minis
wicked yoke
It'd be nice to paint a figure, but I don't have any in-person games, and my hands are definitely not surgeon-steady.
kindred scarab
I play so infrequently and don't have a good group to DM for anymore, I get your pain
wicked yoke
I've got two online campaigns though. I get by on having art for my characters.
nova ginkgo
My hands are not steady (though if it gets bad after painting for a while I drink a little Scotch and it seems to help, probably because I am less stressed) but it's still fun to do painting projects, whether I use them or not.
azure cradle
I have quite shakey hands myself, and know plenty of people who can paint minis very well who don't have steady hands. It's just something that takes practice and diligence, like most things.
I'll admit my lack of a gumption is largely because I'm impatient and want to skip the beginning and middle part of being really bad.
nova ginkgo
Yeah, it's frustrating - I know my limited skill will have backslid because it's been at least 6 months since I painted, and I wasn't that good at that poing.
wicked yoke
I'd probably have to get my current character custom-made. Since the lizardfolk figures that are on the market are all more tribal in flavor.
I just envy those who can paint with such precision to make them look good.
nova ginkgo
This is the best I've done so far - back in July. I'm a little proud of the horns.
azure cradle
I've thought about that myself. Getting a model made at HeroForge and then commissioning a paint job.
wicked yoke
I'd have to go even further than that, since lizardfolk facial constructions have only a single option for HeroForge.
At least, last I looked.
nova ginkgo
I love Heroforge, I'm so hooked on getting JUST what I want in a mini (like my Tiefling not wearing armor!)
azure cradle
Fair.
There's probably more options now that 3D printing is becoming more popular and cheaper to get into.
wicked yoke
Yeah, I have one good HeroForge character, but the one I'm thinking of is too custom/homebrewed for the race to fit.
nova ginkgo
Shapeways has some good designers, it's where I found a Skittermander for Starfinder.
nova ginkgo
Makes sense, might be worth checking custom designers for 3D prints, then.
wicked yoke
Yeah, should the need ever arise.
nova ginkgo
I actually am on the other side, I don't have a need for it but I want to commission an artist to do some of my characters just because I find it cool to have art of them.
wicked yoke
I understand. I've spent more on art in the last two weeks than I have in the past two years.

Here is the start of a map I have been working on. What does everyone think?
proven estuary
Less water between the landmasses here than there is between North America and Europe
obtuse helm
That’s true, but the ratio seems to be much different
azure cradle
The landmasses themselves are good, with one particularly fantastical landmark in the upper right corner.
Just eyeballing it, it does appear to be an 80/20 split between water and land, while most fantasy maps tend to focus much more on landmasses.

Literally just dump them in as pngs and arrange them.
This is a map I made for my starting town.
dry radish
Dump them in how? I use GIMP so I know it's similar but not exactly the same. I mean, I've got literally about a thousand or so assets. I want to be able to scroll through them all in the program I'm using. Is that even possible in something PS/GIMP?
snow plaza
Ah, that's where I'm not sure how to do it. I find the png's in their appropriate folders on my PC, then drag them into photoshop when I need them.
Im pretty sure there is a way to have collections. Let me investigate quickly.
dry radish
Right. Yeah, it's a major pain having to go back and forth. I mean, I guess I'm only using a small subset of the assets in any single map, but still, even the whole cloning/layering shit in GIMP drives me up the walls. I'm a simple person who likes simple things that work, simply.

I bet you romanced Tali in Mass Effect 😛

Never played it 🤷
gusty sage
My mind immediately went to Draenei
steady marten
Ooohh, such a good game, highly recommend it
dry radish
You never played Mass Effect? The best game in existence?
With a totally non-controversial ending?

I got an amazing commission done of my half-orc bard, and I absolutely love how amazing it turned out! ❤ The artist is evilovsyanki on Tumblr for those interested!
timid trellis
That is beautiful
agile rock
Right?! I just stumbled onto their Tumblr and knew I needed to commission them for her. ❤ Their work is outstanding.
humble turret
the belowdecks on my ship
Gunnery deck, mess hall, and the ship's hold
based on my research on real ships many of the crew slept on the gunnery deck between cannons, which is why there's lots of bedrolls there
also the chef would sleep in the kitchen area
there's also bedroolls in the belwdeck so folks can sleep in the mess
all space must be functional at all hours
stone light
@dry radish I did.

So I just watched PubDraw ep.1 on Critical Roles youtube, and I have to say, I'm pretty happy. This is a step up from my stick figures. Thanks Babs!
agile rock
Nice work!
dusty lichen
Thanks!
steady marten
Nice! They use a couple of really good methods 👌🏻are you going to continue the series, Acean?
dusty lichen
Yes definitley, i really enjoyed doing this, so I look forward doing it again
steady marten
Looking forward to seeing more! And it makes it easier to draw your own characters if you keep doing those techniques

I would like to thank you to the person who mentioned Wonderdraft, here is a worldmap of my upcoming campaign made with ease

Got my new paper minis done for my group! 😄
wicked yoke
Cute! What’s the one on the right end?
frigid sun
Tabaxi fighter 😃
left to right, Firbolg Druid/barbarian, Aasimar Paladin, Yuanti Dragon sorcerer, Kobold Rogue, and Tabaxi fighter
wicked yoke
I thought it was tabaxi! It kinda looked like a variant of a charr from Guild Wars 2.
I got the yaun-ti incorrect.
frigid sun
lol yeah my wife and I where making that joke, the character has an antler head dress and is an absalute BEAST so not a normal tabaxi for sure lol

hearty drum
I started panting minis, and this was my first attempt at it.
hearty drum
Oh cool!
I got a bunch from a failed DnD party so I'm using those for practice.
what are you painting ?
azure cradle
Kashaw, a Critical Role mini
hearty drum
Oh, got it in the kickstarter ?
agile rock
They release vault minis every month or so of different characters! You can currently pre-order Orly.
azure cradle
Actually, they do Limited Edition runs every now and then
Like Mellie says, Orly's currently up, and will ship in April.
They're up for only a limited time
agile rock
I do!

What’s the best way to highlight the finer details when painting the base coat?
agile rock
I did all of my detailing at the end. So I did my base coat, then a wash, then I went over highlighted areas with the base colors again, then drybrushed certain areas for extra highlights
uneven mural
Yeah, if you want to paint fast, base coat then wash then drybrush is great. I think lots of advice I've read on reddit (r/minipainting) is to thin the paint a bit so it doesn't erase details and you can do more details and such, but I'm not a good painter enough to really know

@frigid sun how do you make the base for the paper minis?
dusty lichen
I took ny secon try on PubDraw today. Beau this time. Something feels very very off, but I cant really find waht. I welcome every advice

@wooden dagger I cut out two 1 inch circles, then cut one in half and placed it over a couple tabs on the bottom of the minis themselves

Just curious. How are the rules on linking your twitch art stream here, if people are interested :)?
wooden dagger
lol sounds fun
sullen wind
Done for the night. I'll be sure to post the final result here 😃

Please no self promotion of youtube or twitch channels.

👍🏾
@strange birch You (or I guess @tawdry shoal) should edit that into the rules in #520291181083754516
strange birch
If it becomes an issue, maybe.
waxen star
Eh. If it's a rule, it should actually be stated in the rules. 😃
strange birch
Thank you for your input.
wooden dagger
how about artists offering to do commissions? can that be posted here?
flint ridge
No. The topic is discussion and feedback for custom art, materials, and crafts
wooden dagger
ok. thanks
