Mythic Design – Adventure Art Review

I pop twitter up on my iPhone periodically or on the PC if I am taking a break from something. I follow various game personalties and companies and saw a tweet from Mythic Design offering up a free copy of Adventure Art Issue #1 to the first few folks to respond, the only catch being those who won be willing to provide a short honest review. What follows is that review.

Adventure Art #1 is offered both as a print and a PDF, I am reviewing the PDF version and think for this type of produce, while it is nice there is a print version available, really works best as a PDF as you are granted permission to reproduce the art for personal use. The product is a collection of twelve character sketches with a bonus action sketch thrown in. It has a table of contents of sorts consisting of a very short intro for each character as well as the credits for the concept and art.  Very handy way to make sure the creators get credit while keeping the utility of the character sketches clean. The quality of the art is above average to very good.

Other than being just fun to look through, for me, the best use for this around the game table would be a tool to spark ideas for a game master looking for help with NPC’s for his game. Players would gain the benefit of having a picture to place with the description the GM throws at them. Always nice to have a face to associate with in a game. All in all $6 for a PDF of printable clean character art is not too bad. Mythic Design has two issues out so far, give one of them a try.
