One
of my motivations for making the transition from traditional pencil and paper
illustrations to digital illustrations was to create new covers for my published
works. In the previous post, I showcased
a new cover I designed for White Box: Eastern Adventures; an OSR rules-light role-playing
game. After completing the new cover for
‘White Box: Eastern Adventures’, I started work on a new cover for Fantastic Adventures and the Disgruntled Gong Farmer; a third-party Dungeon Crawl Classics compatible adventure module.

The
above illustration depicted the party of newly forged first-level adventures
enjoying drinks at the ‘Happy Halfling Tavern’.
Ruen, the sensitive and kind-hearted barmaid, is serving the party their
drinks. The dwarf has a worried look as
he is eyeing his coin pouch; after all, it is his turn to pick up the tab. In the background, peering through an open
window, is Oscar, the mysterious creature that lives in the tavern’s outhouse.
The Fantastic
Adventures and the Disgruntled Gong Farmer logo. I wanted to create a unique logo for this
adventure module. In my recent redesign of
the Dungeon Crawl Classics Fan Page, I created a logo for the website inspired
by British medieval heraldry shield designs.
Drawing inspiration again from medieval heraldry, the Fantastic
Adventures and the Disgruntled Gong Farmer logo was born. In the centre of the shield and on the hilts
of the swords are maple leaves, representing my Canadian heritage.

‘Fantastic
Adventures and the Disgruntled Gong Farmer’ is available as a Free PDF on
DriveThruRPG. There is a print-on-demand
softcover version available for $6 USD, for those wanting a physical copy of
the book.
