Yesterday evening I was talking to David Black of The Black Hack about maps and fill styles for them for a new Black Hack release and I had a very different mental image of what a Black Hack Map would look like than what he was showing.
So I dug into my archives and grabbed this map that I had never scanned nor released from last winter (one of 12-15 maps in the series that I was working on). I Googled a few black inkspot images to throw down as a background and this was the result.
And fuck, I think it looks glorious.
So, maybe once I’m done everything ELSE that’s already on my plate (including a commission that has me tied up until early May), I’ll finally get back to this project and try out the whole series with ink spots in the background.
A dungeon on a piece of paper spilled with magical ink. The party shrinks themselves to enter it, like how Mary Poppins and the kids enter Dick Van Dyke’s street art, then must complete a series of challenges and defeat the monsters within to save the artist’s soul.
That looks damn cool. I don’t know if it’s BETTER than your usual fill pattern, but that is a high bar indeed…
Awesome. And… as they say…. not better – just different.
