Ok guys, i think i'm near to release them. This is the final result  I have enlarged the pole... they lost some "elegance" but now it is more sturdy. If it is not enough, i may draw straight black borders around the pole, instead of following the shape. Then i've touched nearly everything. If you don't have any heavy critic or see any error, i'd stay with this version. The linked image is 300dpi, and should produce the markers with the black tab 1cm wide. What layout is the best? As it is? Group of 4-5 of the same marker? Thanks for the support  |

Cuteness incarnate! Great work, parduz, I love them. And well done Cabby, too  . As for the layout, I have no idea which conditions appear more often than others across the rules spectrum, for D&D 4E you might need the bloodies ones most, but I think putting as many sets as possible on one page seems like the best idea. |

These are all great but I have to say that the "Hidden" marker is the best.Great work.

Thanks for the compliments. I was not expecting so much success.
Also i'd liked to use the original artwork of our icons but seems that our new admins are unavailable. I plan to make some more of them, i'd see if i can have them.
PROBLEM:
I was trying to release them to be included in the hoard PDF, but i'm stumbled in a problem... i was not aware of color management. Apparently, CorelDraw works with CYMK colors... for whatever reason that CYMK black did'nt turn out full black, both printing and exporting it as a TIF image (it becomes RGB 40,40,40). There's a lot of options about color management that i frankly don't understand.
So, right now, i need to change every single black line by hands (and i guess that i have to check every single color used to fill to see if it is RGB or CYMK and change it). There's anyone that can drive me to a better way to convert that pesky color in what i need?

Dude, Wintermage... that was totally random! Just popped right in there. It's looking good. It seems that she still needs some work with the backside of her grounded foot. Try printing one out and putting it together and you'll see what I mean. When you get to it, I think some shading would make a huge difference on these guys. A few shadows here... and a few highlights there... and Walaa! ;D As for the markers Parduz is working on, those turned out very nice. My favorite is the frozen one. I think another good name for this guy would be Jimbo, short for Jim Bones. |

Ok, finished. This is the final image, they are 15mm wide at the black tab.  I have a TIF ready for who will put up the hoard PDF. Pls PM me for it: some credits are due for these markers, so i'll tell that to him and i humbly ask to who will make the PDF to write them for me in plain english  |

Someone will need to complete this months HOARD compilation and make them available for download.
I will need someone to take over the HOARD showcase for me as I deal with my health problems. I am just too distracted with day to day struggles right now to get my mind in a good place to do this hobby stuff right now.
All that is involved is starting the new topics, arranging the compilations, closing out the last months HOARD, and hosting the completed files.

If no-one else is available I don't mind pulling them together and laying them out.
Hope things start to come good for you Jim

Laid out the markers and designed the cut files...I'm a little stuck on Wintermages stuff as they seem to be sized a bit small/oddly and the first seems unfinished. I've sent a PM and will wait a few days for a reply, if none is forth coming I'll have to unfortunately leave them out of this hoard, unless someone has an alternate suggestion?
