December! (Better late than never...)

It's December! It's... almost not December anymore, honestly, but we're all doing our best 😅

Between PAX Unplugged and just normal human holiday stuff, I have been all over the place this month trying to get everything in place before the year ends so I can go into 2025 with a clean slate. This means you'll be getting a barrage of posts shortly (including our annual Patron survey!), and it also means that I'm only posting two full-length videos this month.

I had two appearances...

Designing a unique look for your D&D character

Today’s video, pending final sponsor approval! I’m scrambling to get everything done before we leave for PAX tomorrow, so this is all the caption you’re gonna get sorrryyyy

Blasphemy

As featured in tomorrow's video: Blasphemy the warlock! Originally created as a tiefling in this video, she is being represented as a human born with a fiendish mark in this week's (for reasons that are explained in the video!)

I'm kind of obsessed with this "burned capelet" that I created for this look, to be honest. It took nearly three times as long to make as I had budgeted, but I think the "burn" effect (created w...

Let’s Go on an Advent-ure!

This December, I’m hosting a special holiday event: The Advent-ure! It’s an adventure advent calendar — a choose-your-own-adventure story that unfolds day by day in our Discord server.

Here’s how it works: Every day from Dec 1 to Dec 31, I’ll post a short section of a text-based adventure in a special channel called #🌲advent-ure. Each post will end with choices for what happens next, and you get to decide the direction of the story by ...

The Black Friday weekend sale is live!

If you've been waiting to pick up anything from my shop, now is the time! From today until Monday Dec 2, everything is 20% off.

Check it out!

This does not stack with your Patron discount (or I'd be paying you to take some of this stuff home 😅), so that's a flat 20% off. You don't need to be in a rush for calendars or adventure books, but I think socks are close enough to selling out that one or ...

Time for the SECOND November livestream!

Hey friends! We're going live in 15 minutes on YouTube for the second of two November livestreams. (Make sure to click through to participate in chat — I won't be checking comments here on Patreon during the stream.)

If you missed it, you can watch the VOD at the same link, or watch the VOD of this morning's stream 2024-11-23 16:45:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Never played D&D? This guide is for you

For a while now, I've been thinking that I should make a TRUE beginner's guide to D&D — not just "how to develop a personality" or "things all new players should know," but an actual breakdown of how the game is played, on a basic level. So here's that video!

This is for newbies (particularly those who haven't played Actual Play or similar, the ones who truly do not know how the format of the game works!) but also for DMs who introduce newbies to the game. I know that explaining b...

Barbie-barian

Creating a custom Barbarian outfit from scratch for a Barbie was absolutely not necessary for this week's video, so naturally I spent five hours on it. Her sword is a letter opener I've had for like a decade.

She could use some weathering, but we're not made of time around here! It'll have to wait!

Co-working stream!

Hey friends, I need to do SOMETHING to stop me from just reading comments on today's video, so I figured we could do a little productivity stream together! I've got a few things to work on, so I'll probably spend 1-2 hours just quietly working on camera. Join me if it would help you also be productive!

It is November.

Hope you're surviving. ❤️ Here is the plan for this month:

• Patreon-exclusive livestreams are Saturday, November 23 at 10am and 2024-11-12 17:38:41 +0000 UTC View Post

It's calendar o'clock!

My 2025 calendar is officially here! (And only a few days behind the intended schedule! 😅)

This one features unused photos from the last two years of fine art photoshoots with Ellie Rich and Dillon Richardson, as well as design by 2024-11-04 19:35:33 +0000 UTC View Post

Gelatinous Cutie & Friends

While I had the Gelatinous Cutie outfit on for this week's sponsor, I figured I'd grab a few shots of her with her latest ex-boy toy — plus, a new friend who is immune to acid damage! 💚

Clean my studio with me!

Hey friends, just hopping for a quick spontaneous stream while I straighten up my studio after a few whirlwind filming days. It'll be a quiet little productivity stream. Feel free to join me and work on something alongside me!

Click here to join the stream. (Or you can watch it back later at this same link if you need the co-working vibes!)

and THAT'S why I always carry a sword.

I am nervous about tomorrow's video because crafting videos can be very hit or miss on my channel, but I spent SO much time and energy on this project 😭 At least even if the video flops, my sticky new roommates will comfort me with a long grappl– I mean, a long hug!!

It's nearly livestream o'clock again!

Hey fiends, hope you'll be joining me for this month's second Patron-exclusive livestream starting in 15 minutes! Make sure to click through to YouTube to participate in chat, because I won't be checking comments here on Patreon during the stream.

We'll talk recent projects, upcoming projects, and then I'll answer your questions!

If you missed it, you can watch it back at this link, or ...

Arcane Absurdities — Magic Items

"Arcane Absurdities"  is a collection of 12 odd, whimsical, and deeply impractical magic items to bring a little more laughter into your games! Each item includes description, rarity, and game mechanics to allow you to easily drop them into your games. Consider introducing them as the wares of an odd traveling merchant, the inventions of a kooky enchanter, or surprising loot in a treasure hoard.
