Episode #141: Making a Thirteenth Hour Graphic and Case of the Almost Assassination 4
https://archive.org/download/Podcast141_201804/Podcast%20141.mp3
Today, I’m making a little graphic in Photoshop for a future promo flier. I’m using the Logan figure we made and painted a few episodes ago as well as a plastic castle from the movie Frozen (which my daughter must have watched now at least a half dozen times).
I’m using a pre-rendered background (the one I made for the cover of the EP Between Two Worlds). Here’s the image with Logan and the castle inserted in it. But they look a little weird floating there just as they are, don’t they?
So I smooth out the images and softened the edges.
With a few more highlights using multiple layers superimposed on top of another.
Also, my brother and I recorded the next chapter in our Roll20 D and D adventure set in the world of The Thirteenth Hour. This week’s more of a traditional dungeon crawl though the snake and trap infested sewers below the Capital City of Tartec. Like any good serialized adventure, it ends on a cliffhanger just as our heroes get out of the clutches of death (a sewer crocodile, to be exact) and into the frying pan. Catch the next episode here by clicking on the picture below:

Between Two Worlds, the synth EP follow up to Long Ago Not So Far Away is now out for streaming on Bandcamp.
The bonus track, called “Flight of the Cloudrider” has a 80s movie mashup music video (see if you can identify all the movies!) which is available on youtube. This app was largely created with the iphone app Auxy.
Stay tuned. Follow along on Spotify! There is also a growing extended Thirteenth Hour playlist on Spotify with a growing number of retro 80s songs.
As always, thanks for listening!
