Hey Everyone, hope the summer is treating you well. (The winter for the southerners!) We are almost finished the art! Working on the back cover as we speak. Looks like the PDF for the main book will be ready for you in September. Then we'll send the book to the printer and at this point the shipping date for all the physical items should be in October.
As a bonus we've decided to add a map, even though the stretch goal wasn't reached. We're ordering all of our extra shipping supplies now and starting to order the last of the merchandise. The adventure and NPC book should be done in September.
We are very pleased with how the book turned out and thankful for your support. Travis and Gordon have been working really hard on the art and layout. -Andrew Cawood
The legendary monster known as Gluttony. Final artwork, as with all the illustrations, will be in color.
Summer Update

Hey everyone, here's our beginning of summer update! Hope everyone is doing well. We're still working on the art for the book and are ahead of schedule right now. Travis has done illustrations for all the regular monsters, now we focus on the 12 sins and virtues still to do. Each of these monsters will have full-page illustrations like Chastity and Lust. Then there are two other full page pieces (including the back cover) and several smaller pieces.
There is always a collaborative effort in working on the art; first the creative director gives Travis a description (this includes a great deal of freedom for the artist), then Travis has a chance to add his input and make suggestions. Once in awhile this alters the monster so much, the stat block or bio is changed. There will be a few changes like this to finish up before the editing is finished.
In other news, the printing house we use in Washington State is up and running again! So once we've done the art and final editing we hope it won't take too long to print.
Here is another page from the book:
We'll change the giant razor to Infernal Razor and change the damage a bit...

Hey Everyone, hope all is well.
We've sent out all the older PDFs, email [email protected] with any questions. This includes the following; Monsters of Feyland, Monsters of the Underworld, Myrr, Naern, Ma Zaan, Hirelings and Henchmen, Between Dungeons Handbook, Adventures in Myrr, and the RPGenerations comic book.
We're currently working on the main book, NPC book, and adventure. Art continues to come in for the main book and that will continue for at least two more months. 95% of the text and layout for the main book is done, might be a few changes once all the art is complete. Here are some images of pages from the City book:

Hey everyone, hope you're well and staying safe. Thanks for filling out the surveys, almost 100% completed in record time. Today we've begun the process of sending out the older PDFs. If you have any questions, email us at [email protected]
We're adjusting to this new world like all of you. Our office space is being used by someone else for now, so we're making do. The City book is ahead of schedule, however the printing house we use is closed for printing at this point. Hopefully they'll be up and running when we're ready to print. We really just need the art at this point and Travis Hanson is on the job!
In the meantime, we've also started the City adventure and NPC book. In the next couple of months we'll get the other merch made (t-shirt, notebooks, etc). That company is still doing business as usual.
Here are some more examples of the City book in progress:

Here are a few examples of the pages in progress:
