Another update to the Menagerie zip file of 250 pixel public domain silhouettes (link on the right) and the last of the Savage outdoor encounter table.
Su-monster: What the hell, right? Has anyone ever used a su-monster, ever? Anyway, some kind of monkey man from Phylopic did nicely.
White ape: Lots of people want these Burroughs stalwarts in their game; my reference is Joe Bloch's version in Castle of the Mad Archmage.
Tar pit: Homage to the Aurora model kit.
Fossil: A favorite from the Hamsterish Hoard.
Wind walker: Hard to illustrate. I ended up drawing a human shape around some wind lines from an old engraving.
Island Fish, Island Turtle, Ape Men: Guess I'll have to stat those up at some point.
Grimlock: Gold star to anyone who can identify the source image.
Minotaur lizard: Monitor, minotaur, let's call the whole thing off.
Does that mean the outdoor encounter tables are finished? Hell no! There's still a tropical and an arctic table, and I've started work on those.

Does your Mosasaur have a fluke?
ReplyDeleteNah, my dinos are mostly old-school ones, tail-draggers (except for the crested which was the only one I could find.) I guess the Jurassic Park generation has grown up seeing things differently, and wonder when the next major movie to advance the feathers theory will imprint on a newer generation ...
Deleteif nothing else the su-monster appears in the old module "the ghost tower of inverness"
ReplyDeleteAnd I have run that module, and use the su-monster. It was entertaining. Would use again. A++ monster.
DeleteCaptain Griiiiiimlock!
ReplyDeleteNot quite ... it's an earlier image than the cartoon era ... much earlier.
DeleteIs the Silhouette Menagerie still available? I tried the link but it's broken. Fond memories of it from back in the day.
ReplyDeleteI just updated the file with a bunch more monsters and feature icons!
ReplyDeleteSo good, thank you! Do I remember rightly that you released it into the public domain?
