I love all of these, but the harridan's bulbous eyes are just wonderful. Hoping my players will eventually encounter one.

They're pretty high hit dice, aren't they?

eiderann.bsky.social•101 days ago

Yeah, the Harridan can be a tough enemy especially if they run into more than one (or if they're leading a group of crookhorns or other nasties).

I love hearing from people who have actually read/played Dolmenwood, b/c I only really know it from Wormskin and the art briefs/excerpts that I needed to do the illustrations. So I have a strong sense of what makes a "Dolmenwood vibe" for me but I've never actually used the books as intended.

Your art (and the other contributors) really made it come even more alive in my mind and I am such a huge fan of it. There's such warmth and depth to the art that is hard to explain, but I adore it.

I've got Wormskin on my shelf now, but I am eagerly awaiting my printed copies from the KS.

Thank you! Gavin assembled a really killer team of artists and I was happy to be included.

Jesus, man, that cockatrice! I would hang that on my wall where I could see it every day.

tomkilianart.bsky.social•100 days ago

Thanks! At some point after the Dolmenwood Kickstarter is fulfilled I’ll have prints available, so this may well be a possibility

popular-demand.bsky.social•100 days ago

That would be great! Is that digital work or done in a physical medium?

tomkilianart.bsky.social•100 days ago

A bit of both. My drawings are traditional and the painting is digital

popular-demand.bsky.social•22 days ago

Did prints of the cockatrice ever become available? I’d still love to get one.

tomkilianart.bsky.social•22 days ago

As far as I know Dolmenwood still isn’t out for sale, so I think I’m waiting on that

really don’t like seeing the dog get got by the cockatrice…the man made his own mistakes but we hate to see that for a little homie

This is actually just what happens to Bernie when he is asked to go for a walk in anything warmer than 60 degrees

rudehunch.bsky.social•22 days ago

imagine having to walk around on a 61 degree day…the mind reels

tomkilianart.bsky.social•22 days ago

He would rather fight a thousand mailmen than endure such agony

tomkilianart.bsky.social•101 days ago

My behind the scenes story for this batch is that the harridan has six digits on each limb because I made a mistake on one hand and decided it would be easier to make it look intentional (her being a kind of fairytale witch made this an easier sell)

Phenomenal work !!
