Wayward Sketch #17 - Happy Fishy Friday
No more cheating this time on Fishy Friday and it's back to an actual fish.For the fishing feature I wanted to get some more recognizable animals in as well, so this is basically a more aggressive, larger salmon-like fish with a lethal bite.You can find the high res image here if you're inte...

Wayward Sketch #15 - Happy Fishy Friday
Since I need to design nearly 20 fish for the fishing feature in the bestiary, It's time to announce, FISHY FRIDAY! And so we have here a design based off the nurseshark with very articulated barbels used to manipulate mollusks and pull them out from crevices for a crunchy bite. You can find the...
Wayward Sketch 13
Hey everyone! So for the bestiary I've been thinking of doing a Fishing feature. Rolling on a chart and then testing your strength vs the type of fish or crustacean you were lucky enough to catch, for both fresh and salt water. This kind of feature requires a lot of fish...so.. here's one, m...

Thoughts: D&D and the OGL 1.1
Hey everyone,In case you haven't heard, Hasbro has a 'draft' of their upcoming OGL 1.1 license leaked, and it's fairly harsh to third party people, companies, and for what I'm trying to do with the Sol'Kesh bestiary. I currently use the 1.0a version for Sol'Kesh and so th...
Wayward Sketch 13
Since starting a speculative evolution project set into earth's possible future, one thing has been made very clear to me from many people. The inevitability of crab domination. So join me in the acceptance of final carcinization with this little dude, the miremeer.

Sol'Kesh Update - 1.1 - Release the Beasts
