There's a new feature on the Big Fantasy Epic page:
The Lore Library is a repository of background information for the story's setting done in comic strip format. It's not 100% necessary to understand the story, but it is deeper lore for anyone who wants more on the world-building for BFE.
Thanks for reading

So far it's been every other Sunday. The next page is ready to go 11/26/23. I try to post a Lore Library post on the Sundays in between so there's content every week.

Now a little bit of fun or, dare I say, Madness?
Some of you may or may not know, I have a traditional webcomic called Tangentville. It's been a labor of love of mine for a decade now. It has an insanely diverse cast of oddball characters. But the one many readers seem love most is a reality-warping little Figment named The Madness.
(He's the red & yellow jester guy on the left)
I got it into my head that I wanted to make a miniature of him. So I sculpted one from scratch:
This week's Tangentville pages had been utilizing this little guy and culminated in this BFE crossover today:
Also: new Big Fantasy Epic page this Sunday (12/10/23).

Madness was a fun little mini to make. I may make one of The Sick Man (the little black-robed Figment) one of these days.
Oh, Madness also had a non-canon 28mm appearance:

Thanks, Cap'n! The actual story in Big Fantasy Epic is coming along nicely. I find I can tell better stories in a fantasy setting than the sci-fi setting of 28mm. That still doesn't stop from trying, however

Greetings lords and ladies,
So I recently went through my old models and found an old Reaper miniatures Ettin that I meant to rebase & repaint.
I got busy this week and here's the fruits of my labors:
There's a 22 year gap between the first paint job and the updated paintjob
The pig on his back was much harder to paint than it should have been
A friend of mine thought the Ettin was a Clan War ogre, so I took this scale photo for him
Will this big guy make an appearance in BFE some day? Well, I wouldn't rule it out
