Goblin Painting and Kobold Quartlery

Goblin Painting

Alright, it is a beginning. My first attempts at painting in Painter 11 disappeared with the computer issues. The problem was timed perfectly.I was pretty much fed up with Painter, and the short break gave me the opportunity to approach it anew.

This time around I tried using Painter as it wants to be used, a natural media tool, in this regards it was brilliant. This paining is definitely not finished, and is of course from the drawing you likely recognize from this site. There is quite a bit left to do, but I think I will leave it for now. New projects and all that.


Speaking of new projects, I have been comissioned to do a spot illustration for Kobold Quarterly. They are a Roleplaying Magazine out of Kirkland Washington. Until I was contacted by them I had not heard of this publication. If I was into the whole role-playing thing, I would definitely be subscribing to this mag. If that happens to be your 'cup O' Tea' I would suggest checking out their online store. They have produced several books on a wide variety of fantasy game related subjects, such as Game Design and of course the magazine subcription iteself.


I hope that this first commission might lead to others from Kobold, as it is a very interesting genre that is tremendous fun to illustrate. Hopefully they will ask me to do cover work, as I feel that is where my strengths really lie.

I'd love to see this knight in a stoush. I think I'd laugh my head off. I'd hate to think what it looks like hanging out the washing.

Norm, you always have the best ideas... I might not recover from the image of this knight in a Stoush

He'd be almost useless... Then again you never know what type of brawler he really is. Maybe he is all muscle and toughness under that armor.

I'm going to write Role Play Game books. One day. If, one day, that happens, I'd love you to do the art.
The only thing is, I don't really know what they are. I have a vague idea. I'll find out.

Norm, you should check out the magazine I talked about in this post. That is what Wolfgang Kobold, who publishes the magazine, does. He also has several books on the topic at the website. Writing is something i'd like to be better at, but, well there is only soo much any one person should be good at, and writing along with singing are far from my strengths.
