One of the ways I managed to get art into His Majesty the Worm was by a community of generous artists who specifically host Patreons/Comradery accounts for gaming art. These folks are an incredible resource - providing affordable art for every day folks (me!).
When writing towards prompts, sometimes its profitable to write towards pieces of art that inspire you. All of the art I’m linking to below can be licensed from their creators from their linked accounts to be used in your projects.
Evlyn Moreau
Evlyn Moreau has content that ranges from the cute, to sci-fi, to horror, to fantasy. Everything she does is fun.
Maybe what you write are some concrete rules for werewolves.
Sophie SilverGlass
SilverGlass releases monthly art bundles on her Patreon that follow from patron-voted themes. Recently she’s been doing this series of contract posters that I think would be fun to put into your Worm games and literally hand out to your players during the City Phase.
Maybe you can stat this series?
Kattapulka
Kattapulka evokes beautiful and dreamy pieces of science fantasy art, and monthly releases some piece of NPC, creature, or item art.
Recently, they released these critters. Perhaps you could stat these monsters? Or maybe they are a feature of a dungeon - you have to collect them all to give to the Demon Frog in order to progress?
Fernando Salvaterra
Tome of Salvaterra releases a wonderful variety of monsters, maps, and other fantasy scenes. They are one of most-producing Patreons I support.
They recently did this skelesphinx idol. This is some sort of dread dungeon feature. How does it work? What treasure does it guard?
Amanda Lee Franck
Amanda Lee Franck releases art packs, decorative borders, even her own games every month on Comradery.
Here’s a potential cover image for your dungeon level. It looks peaceful, but certainly contains danger. What will the adventurers find within?
Anyway, hope some of these get your brain going and I hope you have found some new-to-you artists for your projects. I encourage you to patronize as many artists on a regular basis as you can so you can hoard the art they come out with every month!
By the way...
Did you know the Worm Jam is currently going on? It's a space for folks starting new games of His Majesty the Worm to collaborate with each other. Come join us!
