Hey Everyone!
We're officially at the top of the Pintopia page! T H A N K  Y O U ! for following along and helping grow this audience and get us into the spotlight!
Welcome to everyone new! We're growing more quickly every day. 
Each follow really helps grow this idea into the real thing, so feel free to share.

There's a new poll this week for you to choose which class I design next! Scroll to the bottom to vote.

I've had my head down working this week but I've spent the last two days working on-

The Ranger is one of the most classic figures in fantasy- from Aragorn to Drizzt and everywhere in between, so I knew I wanted to go back to a more obvious direction that started as crossed swords to hint at dual-wielding and things went wild from there- a mix of fangs/leaves, scimitars, and an arrow oriented into a claw-like shape (or a long skull, or a dragon's head, or just a badge!) 
For me the Ranger is important because reading the Drizzt series when I was younger is what first led me to illustration, and eventually working under Todd Lockwood who designed the character and helped build the modern vision of Dungeons and Dragons. I decided to make this one personal and eagle-eyed fans will note the unique two swords set into the design. Please don't sue me, Hasbro. No one tell them. 

This one went through a lot of iterations! And I could have made this schedule easier on myself than finishing a poll Friday for release Sunday! Unfortunately, I accidentally merged my sketch layer, but do have some I can show! 

I hope Todd doesn't mind me designing around his own drawings.

A quick note about the cards and designs overall
You'll notice I'm not putting so much work into the cards. Well, that's because none of them are finalized, and I think I've decided to move toward more of a nice boxed and packaged design that the crests deserve. The crests themselves also may change by the campaign. This one in particular may be very difficult for my manufacturer. But we'll see!

I've been extremely busy this week, and I wish I could say all of that was working on this campaign- but I'm an illustrator when I'm not having fun with you all! So I've been working on Magic: The Gathering and book covers, none of which I can show yet!

What I can showcase is that my playmat Kickstarter has been going very well! And as a stretch goal I'm going to be releasing this expanded version of "The Last Light" representing The Fighter D&D class as a playmat for a stretch goal! This isn't finished yet and will be what I'm working on today and tomorrow! I need to order them now so they can get to backers by Christmas.

Jeszika and I have been chatting a lot lately on what our free pin design should be! But nothing is set in stone yet. 

So, there aren't a ton of updates on this project besides the new pin-
I do have to start building the actual campaign page to have for December, so make sure to vote and comment on this home page featured poll if there's something you want to see!

Thanks again, and I can't wait to see what you vote for this week- down to our last three!
