my secret for any trend is to be too fucking late for it. windows paint

i’m currently stuck at my professional work because my wacom mobile studio pro has had 4 fatal defects in 1,5 years. can’t recommend buying it. i’ll switch to a simpler wacom cintiq pro now, thanks to my dealer. i’ve lost many weeks of work time because of these defects.

in the meantime i have to borrow a lot of money from friends and family like a fucker to keep my head over water. great feeling. fuck money.

so i keep myself busy with developing a pen&paper tabletop rpg system called GATE. my future goal for it is to be a universal and modular system. at the moment it’ll take place in a fantasy adventure setting called Eart, though.

up there you can see the logo for GATE. i also came up with 6 different cultures for Eart: the Orms (see picture), the Brobos(see picture), the Eol, the Manyo, the Ult and the Rvn.

now i’m developing the magic system for my game, which is quite a mindfuck to come up with, because i want it to be quick and easy to handle, modular and founded in real life physics.

GATE is based on the free-to-use How-To-Be-A-Hero-System: http://www.howtobeahero.de/ but my system refined much further.

BOY#16

and on he went, that little human boy.

he had safely passed the first challenge of the big forest...

BOY#15

that muscular but unlucky frog had taken such a huge amount of pocket-dwarf-gas, that he started hallucinating.

he wandered off into the deepest abbyss of his mind... floating through neverending space like a sea cucumber that fell of an underwater cliff. he flew by old memories and feelings... that warm summer night, when he felt rejection for the first time by this cute frog girl, which led him to the decision to build his life around workout and workout only... there... his father teaching him how to swim as a little tadpole... oh how he and his 372 sisters and brothers had looked up to that seasoned frog... his mind swirled in a mixture of sad melancholy and hopeful dreaminess for the future... he wanted and did not want to let that weird little boy pass into the forest... why did he even want to go there?... did he not know the dangers of that forest?... there was a reason the fittyfrog had stayed away from it if the opposite wasn’t extremely necessary... but who was he to know which paths that little human boy desired to follow?... not letting him pass suddenly seemed so harsh to him... he had to let him through... that and much more was what the passed out fittyfrog was thinking about while slumbering a deep sleep...

BOY#14

the fittyfrog had not calculated with this punch to his nostrils.

BOY#13

the power of pocket dwarves is a nasty one. n-n-n-nasty biz!

[filipdippel]

BOY#12

36% of you, and by that the majority, have voted for BOY to “release the pocket dwarf” to deal with the fittyfrog. and so it shall be...

BOY#11

boy had waited for quite some time (to be exact: 3 months)... wondering what he should do...

[filipdippel]

here’s a little electronic beat i made yesterday. just a first test, i’ll add some vocals and master it and pipapo, u know.

i call it “Couchfuck” because it’s nasty.

[filipdippel]

my mind is filled with wizards...

56% of you voted for an adventure along the river.. ..so BOY went and followed the stream in direction of the forest. the sun was shining and he felt confident and was in a great mood, when...

JAGER - a new force in the woods! this is a character i will soon animate vigorously fighting a dark forest creature.

“old hunter, old man, soon you will stand facing the beast you thought had yet ceased. but rest assured, what you have lured, a weakness it hides, so in patience abide!

a chance you will get to strike down the threat so free your loved forest and again it can florish. --- song of the old hunter - hoshuka the bard, 152 a.S”

oida

majestic view on the oida mountains. what beautiful way of nature to say: “oida!”

[filipdippel]

for that slappy-ham dance BOY got a +5 on his tiny man-buns! NEAT!!! after leaving his home with a confused mother behind and kicking some pebbles on the way BOY passed the last houses of his town and found himself thinking about his first adventurer’s decision: WHICH WAY SHOULD HE GO? - slip through the fence of the old baseball field - follow the river to the woods  vote here: http://pollmaker.vote/p/TWGD6J5H

[filipdippel]

you voted for the option “other” and saying goodbye to the mum by interpretive dance has won! so here’s what he did!

[filipdippel]

how should BOY explain to his mum, that he is leaving for an adventure?

1. just leave through the window without telling her 2. leave a note and slip out at night 3. swing at the mum and earn your escape! 4. ...
