After a while of silence I can finally show the first printed prototype of Battle of the Meteor. It did take some extra time to get it finished and since it’s summer I’ve been away from work a bit which is why this has taken a while. In any case,…
Illustration Step-by-Step – No Escape
“Lucien was horrified. He had managed to get close enough to the meteor to grab one of its crystal shards, he had actually gotten hold of one, and all he now needed was to escape the scene alive. But now this elemental had appeared out of nowhere. The ground was suddenly covered…
Illustration Step-by-step – Crystal Investigator
“Kerian was the first person to ever take a closer look on this alien material that had suddenly entered their world. Even though the Legion had not been victorious in the initial battle at the site of the meteor, they had managed to recover a few shards of the crystal…
Battle of the Meteor – Cover Illustration: step-by-step
I’ve been working on the cover illustration for my board game for the last 2 weeks (or something) and I thought that this might be a nice time to go through my work flow a bit. I’ll try leading you through the process step-by-step. Hope you enjoy it! When working on…
Battle of the Meteor – The name of the Game
So in my last post I mentioned that I was going to explain my thoughts on the name of this game. Bear with me if this post gets a bit long. As I’ve said, “Battle of the Meteor” was simply the first name I came up with and I started…

Only one faction left after this. I’m nearing the date when I’m supposed to send all the art assets to my manufacturer, and a lot of it is already finished. Except for some smaller things, it’s essentially only the rulebook and the box art left of which I’ll write another…
Battle of the Meteor – Brutes Art Update
The work with the art assets continues, and this week I’m giving you the update on the Brutes. I’m really happy with having worked through the art again and I feel that all factions have a nice feel to them. The Trolls are nice to work with, lots of bulky muscle…
Battle of the Meteor – Undead Art Update
Because of popular demand, (a faithful commenter on boardgamegeek) The Undead will be the next faction to be displayed here. As some of you may notice, the name is now changed from “The living dead” which I decided was simply too long and complicated in comparison. I’m actually as of yesterday…
Battle of the Meteor – Wyvern Art Update
The work towards the first prototype of my game continues and here’s some of the progress on the Wyvern faction. As I go over all the images another time I see the need to redo the design of some of them. Those that have seen earlier versions of the tiles…
