More new art

2 blogs in one night? I wanted to share more art, but this isn't part of the current project, so I didn't want to feature it in my previous post.

First up is a composite from Richard Spake of 2 more public domain villains, Blackout and The Red Knight. I really love how they both came out, and think it's some of the best work he's done:

2 more from Anthony Green, also public domain villains. First up, The Mastermind:

And The Mummy:

Two new pieces from Dan Houser. These are original creations of mine. They are a brother & sister duo named Frostbite & Sunburn:

Moving at a Snail's Pace...

I'm currently working on 2 projects right now. The first is my overdue BASH release, The Dirty Dozen. That's going to feature 12 Golden Age comic book villains available in the public domain.

I've decided to do a separate DD with modern characters for Supers! Revised, and may also do the golden age one for Supers!. I just need to write out the adventure and work out a format for the stats. Plus wait for Rus to get me the logo.

In the meantime, here is some new art I commissioned for Dirty Dozen. I decided not all of the clip art I bought was up to snuff, so I wanted to get new art done.

Here is Richard Spake's rendition of Doctor Dracula:

Next is Baroness Blood by Anthony Green:

The Hyena, also by Anthony Green:

The Puzzler by Joe Singleton:

And finally, The Sceptre by Joe Singleton:

I suck at this very much

Well I haven't updated the blog for around a year. So much going on in real life, just didn't have time for it. Things are looking up though, and hopefully I'll have something new to post soon

A new Kris Smith piece

Kris Smith sent me a new piece today. it's for a character I created for a V&V game run by another player in the group I run Glare & Coldsteel in. Figured I'd share it. Nothing new on the writing front; my creativity is at a standstill, but hopefully I'll get out of this rut soon. I'm hopefully running a one shot of Eldritch Skies (a sci-fi game based on HP Lovecraft's work) at the end of the month for Recess. After that, i'll see if I can get off my ass and do some writing. In the meantime, here's Mindstorm:

short update

It's been some time since my last post. I'm not really good at blogging it seems. Anyway, work on Dirty Dozen has kind of stalled. The stats are all done for BASH, and thanks to Ben Norman, I think I've got all the errors caught. It's just a matter of sitting down and writing it all out (mostly the adventure seeds, as their bios are available on the Public Domain Supers Wiki).

In the interim, I've been commissioning new art from Adrian Smith, Anthony Green, Kris Smith & Russell Boyd. Also got a new piece from Brian Brinlee to go with some stock art of his I purchased for use. In addition, I've found a few new artists whose work I hope to purchase for publication. One goes by the name of Celtic Bolt on DeviantArt. Another is an artist I found via the Atomic Think Tank forums. We'll see how that goes.

I'm also working out stats (currently in Supers! format) for various villains. All of them are inspired primarily by clip art I've purchased, but some are from art I've also commissioned. I'll likely be releasing those stats in a villain book down the road.

In the meantime, here's a private commission I got from Celtic Bolt of my V&V character, Glare:

Triad for Supers! now available

At long last, the Supers! version of The Triad is available on RPGNow. Featuring new cover art by Russell Boyd, it hopefully represents a new phase for Soultaker Studios. I learned a bit from the earlier versions of this release, so hopefully the improved quality on this version will show.

Check it out here

Cover Art!

Ok, so I'm a bit late in posting this, but the delay means you get to see 2 covers for the price of one!

First up, here is the cover to the upcoming Dirty Dozen, a collection of 12 Golden Age Villains available from the Public Domain. Drawn by Russell Boyd:

The Second is the new cover for Adversaries: The Triad, also drawn by Russell Boyd. I had this done after feedback from various customers of the earlier version. I figured as I'm preparing to release this for Supers! (and hopefully M&M 3rd and maybe Champions down the road, at the very least), it was time to update the cover:

Work continues on Dirty Dozen. Got 2 new pieces of art from Darrel Miller (who did all the character art I'm using), and I got feedback on stats for all the characters from one of my proofreaders. I'll be taking a six day vacation starting this Wednesday, so I hope to do some writing during that time. Taking it slow for sure, but I really want to do this one better than I did the last one.
