Squaredeal Sten Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 I note that the posters from the Furthest book (Jonstown Compendium) can already be purchased from Redbubbke. But as of Sept. 12th, I don't see any of the art from the first three of the new cults books which Chaosium has published. Maybe I just don't know how to search for them, but.... Will selections from that art be sold through Redbubble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g33k Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 I had thought I already saw some of it advertised on redbubble ... ? I'm almost certain the cover image from Prosopaedia, and one or more of the images of Orlanth... and Vinga? But I can imagine Chaosium has some extra steps and/or delays, so it might trickle out slower. I wouldn't expect they could just click a check-box to "publish all this art on RedBubble" JC artists can just publish their own work, quickly & easily... smaller is faster!

Nick Brooke Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 (edited) The poster maps (etc.) from the Furthest book are sold via Simon Bray's personal RedBubble store, by special arrangement with Chaosium (he's a former Moon Design art director and a longstanding friend of the Chaosium principals): Map of the City of Furthest Map of the Kingdom of Tarsh I suggested to Rick Meints last month that it would make sense for Chaosium to sell the cover art from the new Cults of RuneQuest books via RedBubble, not least for the benefit of Premium Leatherette customers who wouldn't otherwise get to drool over it, and Julia Rawcliffe got the Prosopaedia cover up shortly thereafter; with any luck we'll see the Lightbringers, Earth Goddesses and the rest in the fullness of time.

Nick Brooke Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 The best way to find new art in Chaosium's RedBubble store is to visit the store, click Explore designs, and make sure the drop-down filter for sort order is set to Newest. You'll find some lovely Prosopaedia internal art by Katrin Dirim at the top of the list, and if you scroll down you'll find the book's cover art. (There are various "Collections" used to organise material, which you'll find in the Filters section to the left of the Shop products display, but I wouldn't bet on anything you're looking for landing up exactly where you'd expect it to be. We're not the Orderium, after all...) 1 1 1 Quote Community Ambassador - Jonstown Compendium, Chaosium, Inc.

Brian Duguid Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Very minor bonus: the Prosopaedia cover art at Redbubble shows edges of the image that aren't visible on the actual book, because they are within the wrapping margins (or whatever the right term is) at the edges of the cover. Extra mouse! Horned man nipple! Ocean waves! And even more Glamour! 2 1 Quote -- The Voralans presents Glorantha's magical mushroom humanoids, the black elves. "Absolutely phenomenal" - Austin C.

PhilHibbs Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 (edited) I'd love to see the art direction for the Prosopaedia cover. Well, for all the art really! Does anyone know how the posters are shipped - are they folded or rolled into tubes? Edited September 15 by PhilHibbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Brooke Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Whenever I've ordered posters from RedBubble, they've come in sturdy poster tubes. (I usually go for big maps; if you're getting poky little art posters that could be different.) 1 Quote Community Ambassador - Jonstown Compendium, Chaosium, Inc.

PhilHibbs Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 (edited) Also... I want to see Page 4 posters. Both Pages 4. I mean, I have posters of them already, because I have an A3 printer, but I want better ones. Edited September 15 by PhilHibbs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you may want to wait until you see the full picture in the Mythology book - based on the ChaosiumCon sneak peek, it's a 4-page foldout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Brooke Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Page 4 posters, 4-page posters, potayto, potahto.

Joerg Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 There are a couple of illustrations of rune-owning deities that I would call the "Major Arcana" cards. What are the chances of getting a deck of cards of these? 1 Quote Telling how it is excessive verbis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when I am in the menu bar item Explore designs" the drop-down selection for "newest" is not displayed, or at least not obvious to me. The Explore Designs entry has six items in the drop down: Esthetics, Animals and Nature, For you, Netflix fan art, Official flan art, and Pop culture. So "new"t is not one of them. It evidently displays differently for me than for you. Trying other things - A search for "Chaosium newest' does not work , it yields " Nothing matches your search for "Chaosium Newest". But Explore Designs/ Following does give me "New designs from people you follow " That is evidently a key to seeing some of the art I might want. It does seem to require that I have previously followed the right artist(a). Luckily Katrin Dirim is one of those. I've got to say that the current functions seem to disfavor new artists as a practical matter, even though i suspect Redbubble's 'for you' display is meant to equally feature all artists: It certainly doesn't seem very tailored to me personally. Perhaps it's me as a viewer category, the abstract concept of me. If Chaosium has any leverage with Redbubble, you might ask them to review and improve their search options so that "new" is a filter selectable under "Chaosium" when the filters bar is displayed.

Nick Brooke Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Look at my screenshot, Sten. I drew a red oval around the Explore Designs drop-down you’re meant to use. It’s not the one at the top of the page, it’s the one that’s in the Chaosium store. Quote Community Ambassador - Jonstown Compendium, Chaosium, Inc.

OK, "newest" is a drop down menu choice under Chaosium. That drop-down also appears for individual artists. I note that none of Loic Muzy's art for RuneQuest is on Redbubble, though some Cthulhu stuff is. Nothing at all is identified with Agatha Pite. Incidentally if you ever talk to Redbubble, the path to "follow" an artist is also non-obvious. Well, i look forward to seeing more of the art from the cults books sold on Redbubble in future months. i will check back from time to time.

mfbrandi Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Also, no need to click Nick’s link AND follow the instructions, as it already points at the Explore option with the “newest first” sort: https://www.redbubble.com/people/Chaosium/explore?page=1&sortOrder=recent 1 Quote Young Glorantha creationist and notorious void cultist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
