It's beautiful, both of you! Straelbora, it's a perfect size for Ranging and, if I may add, for an innkeeper to keep tucked beneath the bar to ward off unruly guests and ruffians. What a great piece! I hope to get to see it in person in a few weeks! Eric, your work is fantastic. That looks to be the...

You need to find some Orcs for the next one. There were two pairs of orcs on patrol that we narrowly avoided contact with, carrying torches along the nearby road. They were strangely arrayed in bright primary colors with torches that shone in rather specific directions rather than all around, and c...

As far as this community's pursuits are concerned, some of the very best Ranger kit-related references we have exist only in books that never would have seen the light of day if not for him. So ...

Congrats, looks great!
