Clearwine Fort
here is a small version of Olivier’s amazing map of Clearwine Fort. That looks decidedly different than it does in S:KoH. Is it a retcon, or a change as Gloranthan time has…
Concept sketches of hairstyles for aristocratic Esrolian women

Meet the Dragonewts!
We are getting very close on the next release – the Gamemaster Screen Pack! In fact, so close that let’s go and meet the Dragonewts! They are friendly, I assure you. At…
A Lunar Heartland travelogue

Mine is the War Triceratops with its Dragonewt mahout: I would have loved to do even more art, but keep in mind, every illustration is by Cory. Which is a LOT of…

Inspiration for the Dragonspine
A glimpse of the nearby Dragonspine from Wintertop.
Inspiration for Kero Fin
