Monster of the Week Game

9/20/21 I will be a character in tonight's game. Come check it out.

Scotty Updates

The pic you see above is going to be a sticker I hand out at my convention games. So far,  MACE in NC is the only convention I am attending this year. I am working on a cool Star Trek-inspired game for the con called "Star Trac" (with full terrain of course). My own galaxy but with a very trek feel. Hope you can join me ...

Check me out Friday night

In this one shot we are all playing teen adventurers who grew up and returned to GUE (Great Underground Empire). Check us out if you can.

Years of content

I have a huge video catalog on YouTube but did you know I also have many vids never seen on YouTube right here on Patreon. Check out my backlog posts for videos dating back many years. I also have some downloadable PDF crafts as well as my Luck Dice Rules for D20 games free to you. 

Enjoy and Go Forth and Craft

Trap vid

My collaboration with John at Tabletop Witchcraft got knocked off course by work, technical issues and my second vaccine shot which laid me up for some days. Good news is despite all that I am very close to release.

I will be live on the Crazy Crafter and boy do I have a doozie for you. I am crafting what I call a "Shambling Town". It is an enormous shambler with chunks of a town stuck in it. This project is using so many of my cool craft ideas and techniques you don't want to miss it. Hope to see you all then.

Monster Head Trophy Prop Made for Dungeons and Dragons Game Room

I wanted a real show stopper for my game room so came up with this monster head trophy. I am a horror fan and realize this is not to everyone's taste so be aware it is a gory project.

Craft Off

I just had an amazing experience. I got to meet all the Tabletop Crafters Guild members in person. Jeremy at Black Magic Craft, Vee The Crafting Muse, Bill of Wyloch's Armory, and Gareth of DMGinfo. We all gathered at the MACE game convention in Charlotte, NC. We had a friendly craft off for bragging rights, and my entry won....
