Well, at least i think so. What i mean is that all the minis available here are a good "source" of minis for home-built, or rethemed, or printed boardgames. There's almost any theme available (well, WWII and modern still lacks minis....) and so any boardgame can be pimped with "our" paper miniatures. BUT we lack the common things we find in boardgames.... items, treasures, scrolls, weapons, etc in a greater resolution, so we can build cards, tokens, chits and so on. There's pleny of illustrations on the web, but none of them can stand rights with the miniatures we have here: the style is too much different, and a boardgame build in this manner lacks of "visual coherency".... hope you get what i mean. We also lack of some female "conversion" of the "standard", "classic" heroes (girls usually likes to play with female pg, right? ) So this is my request: swords, space suits, shields, axes, guns, rifles, scrolls, gems, coins, staffs, food, tools, pieces of wood, helmets, wheels, fuel cans, computers, scanners, glasses, wands, wizard hats, leather boots, gas masks, force fields, antennas, books, armors parts, rings, crowns, earrings.... whatever, in the style of our minis, to build beautiful boardgames. Did someone like to take (a part of) this job?

This is great for making cards: magicseteditor.sourceforge.net/You can make a custom layout etc and then you just fill in the details on each card. I know there is a sheet of potions around somewhere + Onemonks weapon sheet. I'm happy to place all the weapons/shields/armour I've drawn on a separate sheet if they are of any use. I suspect they'd look better drawn in isometric (the armour at least).

Yes, i know it. But, even being a programmer, i've found it very intricated. I know there is a sheet of potions around somewhere + Onemonks weapon sheet. I'm happy to place all the weapons/shields/armour I've drawn on a separate sheet if they are of any use. Every single bit of art is useful. It may be now or i may be in the next year, but i know that one day i'll searching for a drawing of somewhat you all artists have already done. As long as they are in vector format, or in a resolution big enough to be used in a card or somewhat similar, that things will be useful. And i will be very grateful P.S. I'm just looking at the scroll icon on the top of the "post reply" frame: I think it is wonderful. Toonish enough for not too serious themes, serious enough to be taken in account, clearly recognizable as a scroll. That picture is the kind of think i may use, if i can have it bigger....
