Hey /tg/, I'm currently creating a new setting based on the bronze age. But I have a few questions to ask.
>How weird/gonzo is too gonzo?
>Can lockpicking, and by extension, locks exist for this time period?
>What's a good currency for a culture that uses copper in its weapons/armor?
>How can I keep every single bandit/warrior character from being 'generic hospilite style fighting man'?
Also, general Worldbuilding Thread I guess.
yeah locks existed in the bronze age, but it wouldnl't be something a barbarian would have
>>46828434
>How weird/gonzo is too gonzo?
Depends on what kind of setting you are trying to make
>Can lockpicking, and by extension, locks exist for this time period?
Locks have existed since antiquity, so yes. They just wouldn't be as common or complex as modern locks, which rely a lot on precision technology. again, anything can be justified, it just depends on how realistic you are trying to make your setting
>What's a good currency for a culture that uses copper in its weapons/armor?
Shells, stones, literally any other mineral or metal aside from copper
>How can I keep every single bandit/warrior character from being 'generic hospilite style fighting man'?
By not being unimaginative and limiting yourself to generic hospilite style fighting men. Your own picture shows a bunch of fighters who don't fit that description. that man is wearing a flower pot helm

From previous thread, after death but before new to hread. What's the best thickness of plasticard, both sheets and tubes? Also, what kinds of brushes do people like? If not specific brands, then what sizes and features are good to look for?
to the anon who painted this saucy bastard. How did you get such a nice matte black?
>>46824399
It actually took me a few different methods and attempts. Black is a nightmare, and I'm not looking forward to my chaplain and deathwatch set.
That was done over a black basecoat with a mix of white and black (maybe 25/75) to make a dark grey. Did a normal layer, leaving some areas (recesses) flat black.
Once that dried I did a glaze of black overtop. Just with watered down black paint. Sometimes two if I thought I messed up and watered it down too much.
Finally an edge highlight with the same dark grey at the end. The knee/elbow pads got a few more highlights and glazes with mixed degrees of success.
I can try to do an image tutorial when I get around to doing my chaplain, if you'd like. It's a hard to explain process because I cooked it up at 5AM when frustrated out of my mind with the more traditional edge highlighting I tried first.
Mammalians suck (each other's nipples, I mean what even are those?) Reptilians were here before you, and we'll be here after you all kill each other.
All we need to do is wait. We can outwait and outlast you in any situation, be it underwater or on land, in feast or famine. Our skin is armor, while you must fashion your own protection. Your reproductive organs are external and vulnerable, but our creator made no such mistake with ours. Your females must carry a useless, fatty burden upon their chests, but not ours. Your young are helpless for years after they are born, but ours can hunt from the day they hatch. (That's another thing - your reproductive cycle incapacitates you for months, but ours does no such thing.)
How can mammalians even compete?

Well we'll eat your eggs for one.
Throw rocks at the nest while you're not looking.
Distract you with volleys while we send in rats to break the shells.

Bumping for new thread
Requesting a spooky skeleton character with similar proportions and helmet as the large image on the left.
Instead of the front of the helm being like it is in that image though I would like a sort of bird shaped beak visor similar to what is seen on the guy in the upper right image. Instead of a chainmail hood covering up the neck and chin area, I would like to have just a dark cloth hood that leads down under the jacket. Glowing red/green/purple eyes are optional.
I would like the torso to be of a similar style jacket seen in the middle right image with some leather or thin plate armor for the chest. It also wears black gloves. Maybe have some of the cloth ripped up to show some bone?
The lower region is just pants similar to the bottom right image but a bit darker and wearing leather boots with metal plating across them.
If you're going to add a weapon, a simple shortsword and buckler or a cutlass and knife would be great.
Thanks for the consideration.
Not quite an art request, but a commission calling.

Previous Thread: >>46650087
Song of Swords is a realistic fantasy tabletop RPG that draws inspiration from historical fechtbuchs, weapons and armor. Its combat system is fast and it can be used for both fantasy and historical/mundane settings.
Call of the Void is a pulpy sci-fi tabletop RPG about fighting space-nazis and hunting giant whales with harpoons made out of the moon. Its combat system is more modern, based in the early 20th century, but can probably handle combat up to the present day.
Here's a .rar archive with the newest version of the rules as well as all related current working documents. At this time the latest version is v1.9.9:
