@Tuftears "whole armies of grinches" oh, those would be the githyanki. :)
#drawing last night - originally I wanted to riff off the”Celtic elves” concept but I really couldn’t make the description of riastharae from the Tain work on the elf champion’s face. And in fact I’m unsure I successfully communicated it at all!
pet play
@Oneironott no matter what, no matter how far apart we might be, you’re a good otter.
@Kusimanse tengu or kenku depending on if you're in Pathfinder or D&D!
@Tuftears Look, walls are built either low enough that a ninja can scale them with various gimmicks (vaulting over each other, standing on sword guard etc) *or* have enough unfinished stone that it's easier to climb with gimmicks (folding hook ladder, nekode).
You wouldn't want to be rude to ninja after they spent all this time coming up with awesome gimmicks, would you?
So I double checked and a Cost of Living Raise is supposed to catch up with the Cost of Living. That's supposedly 2.5% for Seattle, so even though I'm pretty angry about it, my company's willingness to grant me only a 3% raise is basically Cost of Living.
Which then raises the question, how has the cost of living in the Seattle area *only* somehow increased by 2.5%?
#drawing last night. A modeling video I watched converted a huge dragon model to a bat styled dragon for use in Ravenloft. I figured this was a nice vampire dragon design and thought a Ravenloft-y PC to fight could be a werewolf, but now I think I’ll nix the werewolf to show off the dragon more.
#drawing last night - there’s a little composition thumbnail of a more angular version I’d think might look more dynamic - but maybe this actually works as is? Also part of why I was thinking of Excalibur earlier was listening to the soundtrack while drawing.
#subpost an accurate map of the USCSS NOSTROMO, in which every room is carefully labeled "Jonesy licked his butt here"
*grossly oversimplifies the end of WWII*
USA: We can produce whole shiploads of M26s SO let's just drive M4 variants everywhere.
Japan: Increasingly intense strategic bombing means we CAN'T produce this prototype fighter better than the P-51, let's just dig in a batch of tanks which were outgunned in 1938.
USSR: This is basically what the Germans have except it's stamped out of the crappiest steel and also Warsaw Pact forces will still be using it in 1980
Germany: We'll have resentful, half starved slave labor manufacture an incredibly expensive, hard to repair [Sache] which teenagers will field against Brit/Canadian/Polish vets.
@LexYeen Karloff was a serious badass, but he never got the recognition he wanted and it came out in being kinda petty.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
