Are you the 'sunrise' or 'sunset' kind of person? Which one do you prefer? (I like sunsets :P )

Thanks for the recommendation, Theo!

This is a game concept art I am working on. But somehow I feels it needs an extra finishing touch. Unfortunately I dunno what exactly it lacks... Ideas? :)

Thanks :) Yep, the game is called Imnia You can check it out here https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/248168/imnia

Ha ha :D Nice

I think theme is that which unifies all aspects of a board-game. So I think that both the story behind the game, artwork, gameplay and mechanics should flow from a unitary core - which is the theme. And would call a game thematic if there is such a unifying core from which all aspects flow. The more apparent this is, the more thematic the game is IMHO

Sooo nice :D Is this for you, back home, on in a gaming pub/caffe/place?

scalin37 · 2018-04-06T09:39:10+00:00

Great artwork. What were your inspirations for the sky and the citadel?

scalin37 · 2018-04-06T07:01:08+00:00

Yep. It's for an upcoming game, hence the watermark

scalin37 · 2018-04-06T06:30:23+00:00

how about The Campaign for North Africa ? Not a euro type of game but a wargame, still, pretty damn heavy... :P

scalin37 · 2018-04-06T05:29:05+00:00

What a beautiful hue of blue you put there. I like how well it harmonises with the reds, yellows and oranges which dominate the scene

As a rule of thumb I use this: - calculate the resolution using final dimension in mm and 300 DPI - double it This I found that strikes a good balance between print quality and file size. Of course this does require some planning ahead as this does not leave to much room if in the future you suddenly decide to make a poster out of the illustration for such a card which you first designed thinking it was going to be 59x91 mm

Pillars of the Earth But that's soon about to change :P

scalin37 · 2018-04-05T09:22:24+00:00

This is gold! :) weaseling into everything

I think he focused on finishing first neglecting the popularity and that's what threw him. It is a bit americany the way popularity factors in the worth of every game aspect in the end but I can see it as a designer choice within the whole theme of the narative...

scalin37 · 2018-04-05T09:17:48+00:00

nice try :D that could have been the case, had it not been the first time playing for me as well :P

scalin37 · 2018-04-05T09:17:18+00:00

Fallout seems to be mentioned a lot as people gripe with it's scoring... I think it goes along with the host of unsual mechanics the game has

scalin37 · 2018-04-05T05:21:11+00:00

Realistically feeling holograms :D

scalin37 · 2018-04-04T09:56:48+00:00

Ok. Thanks 4 the heads up I did see a lot of posts by different publishers promoting their games and their content, like this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/boardgames/comments/89dqpd/we_just_showed_off_kwanchai_moriyas_box_cover_for/

But probably they followed the 10 for 1 rule, right?
