Rangers Illustration

I have been asked to make a cover for a rpg supplement about rangers (more about that when it shall be released).

It took me more time than I thought, but I am quite happy with the result, mostly because it was my first real digital painting and I didn't knew if I was going to finish it at all.

I did use Artrage and Photoshop to work. Mostly Artrage, Photoshop was just used to tweak some layers. It was a great help that Artrage can open and save works in .psd, keeping all the layers intact for Photoshop.

I'll certainly try again.

Savage Worlds Character Generator

For those who had missed it: an online character generator, quite well done (it makes all the calculations).
I won't use it to completely make the PCs for my games (as all the skills, edges,... depending on the setting are not included), but it should enable my players to have a first draft of what they want to play before coming to the game session.
I intend to mail them something like: "Next game is a sword and sorcery scenario, prepare legendary level characters" and have them coming with half finished characters.
Have a try, rolling new characters can be quite addictive:
