The feast chamber is slowly taking shape – according to plan, but with some surprises along the way. Location For one thing, I hadn’t expected it to be wooden. I thought it was made of stone, like the rest of the Midday Hall building, but the more I tried to…
I spent the second week of pre-production figuring out how a Bereghin feast works. That was a lot of research, and also a lot of just trying to put things together. But I’m finally starting to feel like I know what I’m doing here. Disclaimer: I’m NOT saying everything described…
This time, I’m trying to approach the design of the new location in a slightly more methodical way than before. In the hopes that it will make things easier and faster. I’m also going to try to keep track of how that goes. The first stage, technically, is concept-art and…
Year 2023 is basically over, so… firstly, HAPPY NEW YEAR, everyone, and may 2024 be kinder to us all! And secondly – time for a quick retrospective and 2024 art goals setting. 2023 in Review Major things that happened in 2023: I also improved my art technique in several areas….
I’ve been itching to make some revisions to the already-published parts of At War’s Edge for quite a while. For the most part, I’ve been resisting that itch successfully. Until now. It is normal, I think, to want to improve your old work. At War’s Edge launched four years ago…

Oof, it’s been a while since the last art update. I apologize. I’ve made some good progress in May: the ballroom of the Reulga city hall is pretty much finished, and I’m ready to start really focusing on the characters – the guests, and the staff, and I still have…
Reporting on the art in progress for the last couple of weeks. I didn’t report last Monday, but there is, in fact, progress 🙂 The city hall exterior is very nearly done: There may be some changes required once I figure out the interior layout though, which is what I’m…
As promised, I’m reporting on last week’s art in progress. I’ve been working on the exterior of the Reulga city hall, and I’m pretty happy with where it’s going, although it’s not anywhere near done yet. Yeah, turns out, landscape design is hard. Especially when you’re inadvertently worldbuilding along the…
Working on new characters for the upcoming arrival of the dyvs. This is the future princess of Tregorie and her twin brother, dressed in dyv fashion. Took me forever to figure out the hair =D Also, I finally learned their names. The princess was so far referred to as “Olminita”…
