Call for Artists!

Hello everyone who has ever been a fan of Telltale Games! We are currently looking for artists to join our already very talented and wonderful team of artists in order raise money for the Trevor Project.

We are currently only looking for artists who want to draw: The Wolf Among Us, Tales from the Borderlands, Telltale’s Game of Thrones, and any other Telltale Games that are NOT The Walking Dead, however.

Experience working in print or with printed media is a bonus, but not required (our zine organizers will help you with this if need be). You must be willing to commit to the project, no backing out last minute, and keep up responsibilities and communication with the team as the project goes on. 

All artists will receive a free copy of the zine, along with any other packaged merch we’ll be offering for their participation in the zine. 

Anyone is welcome to apply, but please note that applying does not mean you will be on the zine for sure, as we will be going through applications and inviting on artists we think are qualified for the vision of the zine onto the project, and if you are not accepted onto the zine, that is not a reflection of you being a bad artist or us thinking you are terrible or anything, since we all have room to grow, or sometimes certain types of work are not best suited for certain things. We only want to ensure that the zine has a consistent theme and all artwork will be of good quality for print.

In order to apply, please send us an email to [email protected] with the subject titled “Application” and send us a link to a portfolio of your work and/or your social media profiles, so we know where to find you, and tell us a little bit about why you’d like to join us too if you’d like.

If you are not an artist, or are unable to participate in the zine, but would like to support us still, please spread the word: reblog this post or share this on other social media, maybe tell your own artist friends to apply, or even suggest to your fave artists that they should apply! Every bit helps a great deal and we are very thankful for the support.

Applications will be open until sometime in December, where we will make an announcement when they close, so send them in as soon as you can!

Hello, everyone! Still upset and letting it settle in that TWDG is over? Especially now on the one year anniversary of The Final Season’s release? Or still sad about and miss your faves from other Telltale Games? Well, what if we told you it wasn’t over yet… For us the fans, and now it’s time for us to give something back! 

Announcing… We Will Remember That, a charity fanzine by fans for fans! A zine that will take us back as well as give back, as many artists from the fandom over the years come together to give one final farewell, and say thank you to all our favourite Telltale protagonists and the people who made it happen. Our concept is to create a book filled with art that pays tribute to the legacy of these games and their stories, as well as imagine what type of ending or future they’d have if they’d continue on.

All proceeds will be donated to The Trevor Project to honour the Telltale team’s dedication to diversity in their games, as well as the youth who made their final game such a memorable experience, and to say no matter what adversity in life, you will still carry on and survive this. There are still great things to come and a brighter tomorrow.

Check out our page for more information, and to keep an eye out for updates! We hope you’ll support us! Until then, remember to keep that hair short, and we’ll see you around… wolf.

(Lovely artwork by the very talented @hibci, please do yourself a favour check out more of their work!)

Former Telltale Dev: Patreon Advice Needed

Hello! Kent Mudle here, former Walking Dead Director recently laid off (along with the rest of the studio)

In my spare time I draw a comic called BERET which you can read here!

Check out “BERET” on Tapas https://tapas.io/series/BERET/

It’s a shonen battle comic with a gay male protagonist about a world where being an artist makes you basically a wizard!

I updated at a slow pace due to my full time job. Now that I don’t have that, I’m considering working on it way more. To help with the joblessness, I’m starting a Patreon to support work on the comic.

HERE’S A LINK TO THE PATREON! It’s not totally ready yet, but it’s getting started. 

If supporting me interests you, or if you’d just like to give me some advice, I’ve got a lot of questions about how to make the Patreon worthwhile for my fans. Here they are!

- How often should I charge?

I can commit to updating either in 2 large chunks (5-6 pages) per month, or like 2-3 pages per week. What frequency is best to get support? Do people like monthly payments regardless of page count or do they prefer by update? 

- What rewards would fans enjoy?

Sketch Requests? Rough page previews? Commentary on old chapters? Detailed battle mechanic guides? Twitch Streams where I work on the comic and chat with fans?

- Any advice regarding the financial side of Patreon?

Anyone with experience dealing with Patreon, it would be great to know if there’s anything I should be aware or wary of when setting up the whole venture. 

——————————

Thanks if you can offer any response, or suggest anything I may have forgotten that you might like to see out of a BERET Patreon.

“The Forrester house words are ‘Iron from Ice’, which echoes their belief that – like the Ironwood itself – the adverse conditions and unforgiving landscape of the North only makes them stronger.”

Rest Well, House Forrester.

[talia-forrester]

In regards to today’s news, I’d like to thank Telltale for all they’ve done over the years, and even though we sadly may never see the conclusion to the Forresters’ story, their story did matter to some of us. Iron from Ice, fellow Forrester fam!

asoiaf houses — HOUSE FORRESTER is a noble house from the wolfswood in the north. It is sworn to House Glover of Deepwood Motte. Their seat is Ironrath, and their words are "Iron from Ice". They control the majority of the ironwood forests in the wolfswood, much to the chagrin of their bitter rivals, House Whitehill.

House Forrester is a noble house from the wolfswood in the north. It is sworn to House Glover of Deepwood Motte. The Forresters are seated at Ironrath, an imposing stronghold surrounded by towering ironwood trees. Built over fifteen hundred years ago by Cedric Forrester and his triplet sons, Ironrath is a testament to the strength and endurance of ironwood. Ironrath sits on the edge of the largest ironwood forest in Westeros, which has proven to be a strategic advantage for the House. 🌱
