I read the playtest document for the new Cairn edition and got inspired! So I did a little fanart.
It was a good way of getting back into things after out holidays. I got so many more ideas that need to find their way to the digital canvas.
And with Twitters' demise, look like I'll be using Tumblr more often. Less NFT weirdos here than on Instagram it seems.

August Craft Month- Open Studio and more..
August Craft month has well and truly started and it seems like a good time to get caught up. My contribution this year is taking part in two group exhibitions, an artist talk and an open studio at the end of the month. It’s been a strange old year as for most of it I’ve had a bit of creative exhaustion after pushing hard with work through the pandemic. Although I’ve still been making, painting…

your HNK art is making me want to watch HNK hrghfghfjrrfcgdggh
Jaw drop emoji. Well. 😎 Here’s my thoughts the “starter pack” briefing to Houseki no Kuni:
Highly recommend the anime!! It’s 12 eps long, u can probably find it if u search like “watch land of the lustrous online” and made by the same studio which made… uh Beastars if you’ve heard of that! And the new Trigun Stampede! They make GREAT CGI animation :)) anyway the anime is beautiful animation and characters, great music, great sound design, great voice acting!
I’ll say the story is pretty weird, but that’s what it’s supposed to be like! A little brief summary about Land of the Lustrous/Houseki no Kuni 🫶my fav anime
Far in the future the last beings on Earth are Genderless Rock Beings Like Steven Universe but Anime and Without Musical Numbers. They’re immortal! The characters are gems. Rocks. And they are being hunted by mysterious divine looking spirit people called Lunarians who want to shatter the gem people (the Lustrous) and make them into JEWLERY and shit ☹️ anyway the story follows one gem, and their changes throughout their journey to uncovering the mysteries about the world! Why are their only gems? Who are the Lunarians? Are there other creatures? Etc. anyway the anime gets u up to about chapter 33 or smth. There’s about 100 chaps in the manga so far, and the story continues further :))
The characters I draw the most that you’ve seen (cairn and laphos)-just for your reference-are from the manga! 🙏the manga is highly rated and ranked #12 top on myanilist which is epic let’s just say things get darker😎 love this series!
Anyway I wrote all this just for fun because I like this series obviously no pressure to watch it because it’s lowkey confusing 😔it’s still really good tho I swear 🔥if u do ever read the manga, I salute u? Be mentally prepared! Hooray! Ok that’s all hope this helps lmao

Ian Phillips is a printmaker living in Wales. He has been working in hand printed reduction linocut for over twenty years. He tells about himself:
"A chance encounter with a small book of ‘Hiroshiges 53 stages of the Tokaido’ woodcuts, whilst studying Illustration at Leicester Polytechnic, seduced me into the world of relief print from which I never escaped. I've been trying to catch the delicate sensibilities of seasonal weather and the dramatic natural compositions of Japanese prints ever since. I taught myself lino cut reduction printmaking while working as a freelance Illustrator in London.
In 2001 I moved to Wales to concentrate on the landscape and becoming a better print maker. I have now been working with lino for over thirty years and have exhibited widely across the country as well as at The Mall Galleries, London, and in Hong Kong and the US. I recently had a very inspirational residency to the Djumbunji Print studio, Cairns, Australia, which has added an extra dimension to my printmaking and lead to the work in the Bestiary series."

Roundup: Itch Games from June and July!
(This was first published on the Indie RPG Newsletter!)
Welcome to the bimonthly round-up of interesting games released on itch.io. I find these games through the form linked below (where readers can submit their own games) or I just stumble across on twitter or while browsing itch (which I do, purely for this issue).
My usual disclaimer that I haven’t read or played these games. Usually, I have only seen their store page. But they look cool and sound interesting and they might be something you want to buy. Or you might give the creator a follow on itch. Go wild!
Tumblr media
In no particular order:
The Fool’s Journey: One page game of imaginary cards, secrets, dramatic irony, a witch, and a wretch. Designed by anna anthropy, a game design scholar.
The Lost Bay: A horror game steeped in weird, 90s nostalgia. A mash-up of Cairn and Lumen, according to the description. Happy that Iko and the Lost Bay Studio have released their titular game (or the first look at least!)
Dolorine: A dark fantasy, solo journaling RPG about defeating death. According to the creator, it “turns pain into power and invites you to face suffering with purpose.” Designed by Sarah Goda of Open Story Games.
Curios: Albrecht Manor: “Part solo RPG, part mystery package experience.” This is a game where you read letters, compile documents, and uncover the fate of a creepy manor. Designed by Seb Pines/Good Luck Press.
Avatar of Gaia: Another addition to WH Arthur’s Superhero Cinematic Universe. This is one about playing a superhero that is trying to save the natural world.
Monsters and Maths: A one page game for high school kids about solving math problems to defeat the monsters. Can’t find any info about the designer except their handle, sapphictiefling (PWYW).
Nexalis: Cezar Capacle’s new optimistic fantasy game about exploring islands and discovering the secrets of a mysterious world. It’s got some neat, inventive mechanics that are Cezar’s trademark.

Happy 99th birthday anniversary to the godfather of cinema Marlon Brando 🎉🎂
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Speaking about working with Brando, Kilmer said:
“Brando was everything you want the major icon in your world to be, a genius and a gentleman. I was getting divorced at the time and he was so gracious about offering me time and considered thought. He offered to call my ex on behalf of the children.
“He was one of the funniest men on earth. I still laugh out loud about some of the things he said and did. I mean he literally wore a salad bowl over his head.
Here's Val's hilarious Brando impression 😂🙌 (from inside the actors studio interview)

The Challenge!
Tumblr media
Recently…
Mirke the Meek, amateur podcaster and really nice guy decided to make a podcast about Delicious in Dungeon, the netflix series from Studio Trigger (Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill). This anime, like many, is based on a wildly successful manga, which Mirke is also into.
He called his project Euphonious in Dungeon and it exists primarily as a call-in show where listeners can share their thoughts on the anime, one episode at a time.
It’s wonderfully short form, like Mirke’s primary self-titled podcast, and features some delightful cooking folly from Mirke’s own kitchen.
Now, while I’m happy to jaw about any show I enjoy, Euphonious requests we focus on the gameable aspects of the series.
Ah, I forgot to mention. Mirke comes out of an excellent community of podcasters producing TTRPG related content. I’ll probably mention them more later but such members include: FreeThrall of Keep Off The Borderlands, Jason of Nerds RPG Variety Cast, Joe of Hindsightless, and Daniel of Bandit’s Keep. (plus many more!)
Central to this community is that they are all in conversation with each other. Allowing the listener to piece together a greater narrative the more shows they consume.
While Mirke is perhaps the most junior member of the group, he should not be overlooked.
Now, to the Gameable Aspects
Tumblr media
Some may know that my first best selling title was Joy of Monster Cooking over on the Dungeon Master’s Guild. So eating monsters is hardly a new concept to me. However, in the past I have always considered: “how can I add a monster eating mechanic?” whereas now I consider “how can I build a game about monster eating?”
The differences, I believe, are quite extreme.
Have you (the reader) read Into the Odd? Or Knave? Or Maze Rats? Or Cairn?
One thing these games have in common is that inventory defines character abilities.
You wanna be a fighter? Better get a big sword. You wanna be a wizard? Better stock up on spellbooks.
With this in mind I thought…”what if we had a game in which diet defined character abilities?”
You wanna be a fighter? Better eat a lot of protein. You wanna be a wizard? Better eat foods high in vitamin B12 (yes I had to look up the memory vitamin).
Could I go on? Yes.
Will I? No.
I want to string these into a series of blog posts so next time we’re going to talk about character stats and charts! (wowee)
P.S. I have no doubt others have tried to do this exact design exercise. I would like (for now) to pretend that is not the case. Once I have a system *then* I intend to look over other’s work to compare and contrast. I think this is a useful method when entering your first round of major edits.

Was The Wizard of Oz Cursed?
Despite its commercial success, The Wizard of Oz is seen by some as cursed. There were so many serious accidents on set that those Oscar-nominated special effects almost cost cast members their lives, from the two actors playing winged monkeys crashing to the ground when the wires that hoisted them up in the air broke, to the Wicked Witch of the West’s stunt double Betty Danko injuring her left leg when the broomstick exploded.
Buddy Ebsen was originally cast in the role of the Tin Woodman, a.k.a. the Tin Man, but he was essentially poisoned by the makeup, which was made of pure aluminum dust. Nine days after filming started he was hospitalized, sitting under an oxygen tent. When he was not getting better fast enough, the filmmakers hired Jack Haley to be the Tin Man instead. This time, instead of applying the aluminum powder, the makeup artists mixed it into a paste and painted it on him. He did develop an infection in his right eye that needed medical attention, but it ended up being treatable.
Margaret Hamilton — who played the Wicked Witch of the West and was the one tipped who Harmetz off to the turmoil on set more than three decades later for her 1977 book — got burns, and the makeup artists had to rush to remove her copper makeup so that it wouldn’t seep through her wounds and become toxic. Unlike Ebsen, she didn’t get fired because they could live without her on the set for several more weeks.
In a scene where Dorothy, the Scarecrow (Ray Bolger), and the Tin Man (Jack Haley) are skipping down the Yellow Brick Road, singing “we’re off to see the wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz,” some think the dark, moving figure hanging from a tree in the background is an actor who hanged himself on set. More likely, it’s one of the exotic birds that the filmmakers borrowed from the Los Angeles Zoo in order to create a wilderness setting, according to the fact-checking website Snopes.com. The rumor has been circulating since around 1989, the time of the 50th anniversary of the film’s release.
An actor playing one of the Wicked Witch of the West’s soldiers accidentally jumped on top of Dorothy’s Toto, Carl Spitz, the dog trainer on set, told Harmetz. The dog (a female Cairn terrier named Terry) sprained its foot, and Spitz had to get a canine double. Terry did recover and returned to the set a few weeks later.
In a memoir by Judy Garland’s third husband, Sid Luft, published posthumously in 2017, he writes that, after bar-hopping in Culver City, the actors who played the munchkins “would make Judy’s life miserable by putting their hands under her dress.”
Garland was only 16 when she made The Wizard of Oz, and her struggles with depression and disordered eating started at an early age and continued for the rest of her life. She claimed that the studio executives gave her uppers and sleeping pills so she could keep up with the demanding pace of show business. She struggled with a drug addiction and attempted suicide several times before she died of an accidental overdose on June 22, 1969, at just 47 years old.
