Ho there, ArcFans!
Hope you're well, and that you had a wonderful festive break. We're halfway through January already, and work is continuing with the Compendium and the new print of the ArcWorlde Core Rules that this campaign funded!
Core Rules off to print
I am very happy to announce that the Core Rules (Version 2.2) have been completed, and are now off to the printers! It should take a couple of weeks, and they say they will send me photos of the printing process, so I'll keep you all updated as things progress.
Monsters from the Frozen North
As it's pretty chilly in England at the moment, I decided to do some work on creatures from the Bestiary that you may have seen in 2016's ArcWorlde: Troubles in the North Kickstarter. My plan for the Compendium is to catalogue ArcWorlde over the past ten years, so some firm favourites will be returning with new artwork for the book.
Frost Dragon
Mountain Troll
The main bulk of the work over the past few weeks has been planning out the whole book, and creating checklists of what art and lore needs to be completed. Unfortunately not much of this is very exciting for updates, but I will keep everyone up to date as the project continues.
What art are you looking forward to seeing?
Cheers!

Father Griffmas returns!

Ho there, ArcFans!
Hope you're well, and are enjoying the festive season. To cap off a fantastic 10th year for ArcWorlde, it only felt right to make a new sculpt for an old favourite Character...
Father Griffmas is ArcWorlde's festive patron, a jolly fellow from the frozen north who brings gifts on Griffmas Eve. His way is lit by his trusty friend Coodolf, a Griffling who bears a lantern on his collar.
However, travelling throughout ArcWorlde is a dangerous business, and his mighty axe is always by his side to protect him and the gifts he brings. He can be added to your pledge, and rules will be released for him so you can hire him as a Sword for Hire in the game. He'll also have a section in the Compendium, with some artwork to match!
What do you all think? Do you think that you'll add him to your pledge?
Cheers!

Ho there, ArcFans!
Hope you're all well. It's almost Christmas alright, bloomin' eck!
Currently I'm deep in the depths of working on artwork, as well as editing/laying out the new Core Rules book. My latest batch are inspired by illustrations in the previous Core Rules, but updated to fit the new art direction/style of the Factions:
I've also been working on some little doodles to fit in the rules and the Compendium!
Stay tuned for more updates!
Cheers,

Ho there, ArcFans!
Hope you're all well, after a couple of restless days wrestling with it and some excellent customer service by BackerKit, the pledge manager for the ArcWorlde Compendium has been launched!
You should all have gotten emails from BackerKit direct to your inbox, but let me know if you haven't received it yet. Be sure to check the email that your Kickstarter account is signed to!
You'll be able to add on anything you missed from the campaign, as well as a discount code for the website which will allow you to add existing models to your pledge and have it all shipped together.
There's also a sneak peek of the brand new cover for the upcoming ArcWorlde Core Rules book reprint, can't wait to see what you all think when it's done!
