I created an Inkscape template for Sigel LP 795 business card sheets. I herewith release it into the public domain. I tested it and it works great for me, but of course the file comes without warranty of any kind.

Just another quick cover mockup.

Third (and, I promise, for now final) Lego design: A tiny beach scene. This is as small as you can go with Lego bricks and still set up some meaningful scenery. This is a popular beach at the blue ocean. The surf’s perfect today – waves crashing on the yellow sand of the beach. There’s a road connecting a lighthouse, two hotel highrises – complete with swimming pool – and a vacation home. The inland is covered in lush vegetation.

Jump Route: Cover Design

Jump Route: Cover Design

“Jump Route” is one title I am considering for the setting currently known as Voyagers, consider it a working title.

The Milky Way Galaxy was made by Nick Risinger, based on NASA images, and is in the Public Domain.

Sometimes you find gems when you least expect it. I was actually looking for a good domain name to use for this weblog when I came across this world-building podcast.

Shakespeare & Dragons [dead link!] is run by Paul Stark. Paul is an English teacher from California with aspirations to becoming a professional world builder. He takes a story-based approach to building worlds, which is a little different from the usual “scientific” approach to Conworlds.

Paul has published 15 episodes so far (plus a “donation reward” special dealing with monster design). Unfortunately, his publishing schedule is very irregular, but what’s already available is quite interesting and really worth the time to download: If you’re a world-builder, this podcast is two thumbs up. But even regular game masters can take a lot of value from it, as they will have to create stories just the same. Highly recommended. And do send Paul some feedback, so he is motivated enough to continue working on the podcast.

Update, 2011-09-16: It appears the website is now gone as well. The episodes are still out there, I will create a page to access them more easily.
