  1. Respect man, this is awesome cannot wait to get the biggest pledge there is for the Kickstarter!

  2. I think the blob design he did would be great Hes from a world where mythical places are living breathing creatures He is the grandson of the fountain of youth. He is in the Corpus faction alongside scrap. He is very dog- like as in behavior he was chosen for his unique ability to heal members of corpus, and to regenerate, shapeshift, and grow in size. He serves alongside scrap and future members of corpus. I can't show my character design but this is it, a small blue creature being suspended by one drop of slime and a large glob of slime coming out of his mouth almost like vomit. He has huge bulging eyes, and a snout right before his moth that has the vomit coming out and two smaller globs behind the support drip that almost are like a tail they go in this order from right to left, one medium sized glob then coming out of it is a smaller one then the support drip then a small drip a long drip and then like vomit coming out of his mouth. Now that i look at it it's almost like a humpback whale shape. Last thing is names I need your name ideas. Thanks!

  3. Man i really wish i could see a version of the ent version of the lil old lady but colored like those golden-leafed birch trees!

  4. The gardener was the character you pitched that I was least excited to see, I thought it sounded really mid… but through your design you've really changed my mind, I adore the final design and the character you ended up with

  5. My only critique on this project is, doesn't it all just follow the standard tropes? the story, the factions and the character's appearances for each faction. It all feels like things I've seen or read before/

  6. when you were thumbnailing all of the characters I was immediately drawn towards this one… she turned out so interesting!!! (pls do the ent version for something else, i really loved that design too!!)

  7. You could make the sniper character look like a humanoid cat, bc cats have a great vision and are pretty intelligent and i can imagine world, where evolution went in cat-way 😅.

  8. Gotta say, I’m so glad you went with the first one. The tree version was just not nearly as fun or unique

  9. Love these character design sessions for your board game! Do you have a world building guide video explaining how you came up with it all?

  10. For the omega faction maybe you could combine the sniper with the plague Dr. The Doctors motivation but as a sniper assassin. Killing from afar so that the target never knows what's coming, they never suffer, its a gift of mercy. They are purging the worlds of what they see as a sickness.

    I love the tank fishman. His tank could be filled with water, that's why he is in a tank. He refers to it as his fish tank. I think he would work as a more jokester character.

    The muscle wizard is my favorite of the next group. The other two seem less unique.

    The slime character is fantastic. I'd love if they were like a super intelligent species, and they found the literal fountain of youth. But it turns you into a slime blob because all of your cells turn into stem cells. That's why they are so tankie.

    I'm so glad you picked the design for the gardener. I like the tree design but it felt like it had been done before. The gardener so so sweet I love her so much!

  11. I know that you know, that I know. Youtube isn't loving for this project. But I LOVE you keep your touch on the channel. Love to see more of youre smile while working on your project!

  12. I'm so sad, I had a similar idea for a tactical strategy computer game but I have no artistic Talent or money to commission anything so here I am watching someone else live my dream 😂

  13. Hopefully the gardener has great stats/abilities because no one is going to want to play that character on design alone.

  14. I can picture the plague doctor as an angel of death of some sorts, you don't know exactly if it kills with compassion, granting an escape from the pain, or if it's just a way of justifying its dark murderous compulsion. Also, the gardener character is very interesting because she makes me think of a healer that also can hurt you if she chooses to…and she could have a "weakness" because she is totally unable to hurt anything plant-related or even an animal, you could say that she can't hurt a fly, but she has no compassion for humanoïd beings and can be absolutely ruthless with human-like creatures.

  15. Do you have an American rep. who can take the models and rules to conventions in the USA and pimp it to the masses? Id love the opportunity

    EDIT: Great job on all the models, and design.. I am very excited to see this game come to life.

  16. i think the ascend dude kinda looks like shang tsung from mortal kombat. not the colour palate but design

  17. I hate how this isn’t more viewed. I love seeing you so passionate about a project and would love to see more of this game. It’s just sad YouTube dosent agree.

  18. It seems like Jazza really wanted the crew to vote for the ent lady, but I kinda prefer what we ended up with. We don't get alot of variety in terms of elven bodytypes (Halsin from BG3 is the most recent example I can think of when it comes to deviating from the normal slender elf look) so having an old elven gardener grandma with a sorta Disney proportion style is fun
