Classic Fantasy TTRPG Artwork
You may have seen some work I did for The Archmage some time ago for their Domain of the Deathless King series of TTRPG modules. This is the stuff I live for… Classic fantasy TTRPG artwork.
I was asked back for a second series of four covers for The Archmage’s next DM-less offering… The Dark Moon Rises. The four images on this page are the artwork for said covers!
But hang on…
What are all these acronyms? A DM-what?
Ok… quick recap. A TTRPG is a tabletop roleplay game… think Dungeons and Dragons… and a DM? Well that’s a dungeon master. A storyteller if you will. Someone who’s kind enough to not have fun every game night so you can (it is quite fun, but I joke).
What are the benefits of Tabletop Roleplay games?
Tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) are honestly one of the best ways to spend time with friends. Hanging out around a table with snacks and laughs. They spark creativity in a way few other games do. One moment you’re a daring rogue sneaking through a dragon’s hoard, the next you’re a bumbling bard accidentally setting fire to a tavern. The freedom to shape a story together, making decisions that actually matter, is just brilliant. Plus, there’s something deeply satisfying about rolling a natural 20 at the perfect moment and watching your character pull off something truly legendary.
Beyond the fun and laughter, TTRPGs are fantastic for socialising and problem-solving. They encourage teamwork, quick thinking, and a bit of improvisation, which are all handy skills in everyday life. It’s also a great way to build confidence. Whether you’re playing an socially anxious wizard or a fearless barbarian, stepping into a character lets you explore different sides of yourself in a safe, supportive space. In fact it’s been known to help in Autism groups and social anxiety recovery. And let’s be honest, in a world that can sometimes feel a bit too serious, escaping into an adventure with good mates is just what the soul needs.
