A collection of some of the great art from this NG in the last few months, 
let me know if I have missed any sigs or whatever.

Well you should thank the artists - they are totally brilliant. I, by 
direct comparison, am akin to a small rotating Saturn in its Rings to the 
planet Mars.

Faux since your work is excellent, it must be because of;

a) a lower proportion of posts by you here compared to others
b) less pics of an RPG compatible theme
c) a flaw in me
d) all of the above

Your links are awesome too.

heh Role Playing Game. The idea at the moment is to combine combat from 
http://www.buttonmen.com and ASCII art when you 'l'ook at a monster or 
your character, or some dungeon feature - and story bits. And tactical 
ASCII for the gameplay.

Of course I'm great at planning, ideas, design but a bit under motivated 
for the actual doing :) I'm an ideas guy!

Indeed, computer role playing game... although I guess the plans could be 
played on paper.

In fact, visiting your website I found myself

In other words I found many descriptions of your game, and manuals
aswel, but I could not find the game itself...am I dummy or the game
is not there?
