Big Dumb Cover Art: The Zero Audio Edition

Over the weekend I had insomnia, and decided to stream my work on the Big Dumb Objects cover. That video is now available on YouTube.

The audio wasn’t working, and it took me a minute to realize I wasn’t being heard, so I’ve positioned the video at that point in the clip above. I decided not to troubleshoot the audio, and to instead focus on making art.

I’ll be doing this again, only with working audio, so be sure to follow twitch.tv/howardtayler for notifications of the live stream. The next pass of inks will really shape the picture, and should be fun to watch.

We’re still on-track with the Big Dumb Objects Kickstarter, and our first pin design proofs are now pictured on the page. It looks like the pins will be unlocked as add-ons today or tomorrow, so be sure to check them out!

The Five-Year Summer

Yesterday we posted our first update to the Big Dumb Objects Kickstarter project.

It is entitled “The Five Year Summer,” and it is an abridged account of why this project is running in October instead of in June. Which means, I suppose, it is an abridged excuse, though given its length, the term “abridged” is getting a nice long stretch of the sort Olympic athletes might get before a workout.

You can read it here! It includes pictures of flood-cut walls, new flooring, and a jackhammer pirate named Val.

Worldbuilding Tonight on the TypecastRPG Twitch Stream

Tonight at 9pm Eastern on the TypecastRPG Twitch Stream I’ll be talking about worldbuilding with fellow worldbuilders, scene-setters, and cosmos-creators Mari Murdock, Charlie Holmberg, and Brian McClellan.

Our Dungeon Master is out of town, and our paladin is honeymooning, so it’s possible we’ll have a USB port open for an Art Cam!

Join us at 9pm Eastern for an hour (or two!) of animated¹ discussion, Q&A², and personal growth³.

¹ Art Cam notwithstanding, there will be no actual animation. Just (hopefully) me drawing stuff.
² If you want your Q’s A’d, join the chat! 
³ None of us have had this discussion with each other, so inevitably we will grow from it. This is a thing that happens during discussions.
