Vermillion Bird

I made a Vermilion Bird miniature from Iron Widow by @xiranjayzhao

This is scaled for many miniature wargames and I made it by combining Flipturz’s Cheetah mech, some wings, and feathers all from Thingiverse

That's so sick! Hope to do some art for it soon!

Want a Pacific Rim/Evangelion TTRPG? Also I've done some writing for it and if my stretch goal is hit, I'll be making a whole Operation inspired by the human resistance in Terminator!

Ran a session 0 for Gubat Banwa last night and, like, I haven't fallen in love with a ttrpg since I was a kid. But every time I read a page or two of Gubat Banwa, I'm just delighted and flabbergasted and astounded. As Rath put it, "If it was just a phenomenal anticolonial setting it'd be sick. But the game also fucking rips." I have a warrior who kills people with a soccer ball, an asshole poet who forces folks to attack them and is also impervious to their attacks, and a fucking headtaker that picks a motherfucker to just delete before swiveling their gaze to their next victim.

Oh, and also the heir to the Dawn Eater Crown simultaneously ships two of them and wants to kill the person who murdered one of the pair's father (which happens to be the other person in the pairing). And the local Raj also ships the pairing. And one of the PCs is in love with a different one, not in the pair. And all of that just flowed out of character creation. I have to build a goddamn relationship chart to keep track of all the soap opera relationship stuff. It's incredible.

Y'all missed the kickstarter for a hard copy pre-order, but I'm sure you'll be able to get some once backer kit gets set up. For now, though, you can buy the pdf on itch. https://www.gubatbanwa.com/

The time has come. Raise the sails, sound the horns, bang the gongs! Glory awaits. It's time to sail the sky and seize heaven's thunderclaps! 

Gubat Banwa's KS is LIVE NOW!

The iron widow in the flesh

[msquaredart]

Genichiro Ashina (a Gubat Banwa Chief inspired by Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice)

The leader of Ashina's armed forces, Genichiro was a simple peasant boy who was adopted by Isshin Ashina, the Sword Saint, as his grandson. Grateful for this act, Genichiro would devote himself, body and soul, to the preservation of the Ashina estate. Despite being an accomplished samurai, Genichiro is a pragmatic man first and foremost, and some have even commented that his methods resemble those of shinobis more than those of his fellow samurais.

DISCLAIMER: I never had the opportunity to play Gubat Banwa to the point of fighting Chief enemies. Take the balancing of this guy with a huge grain of salt

"Oh, but our RPG protagonist has to be a teenager, or else they won't appeal to our core 16-to-19-year-old player demographic" literally just make them a DILF.
