A selection of fantasy tiller guns to populate your rpg sessions ! #art #weapon

Five tiller guns; a tiller gun is an early firearm making its appearance in the Late Middle Age. It is simply a barrel fitted onto a wooden pole for handling, before shoulder stocks replaced that layout.
The first gun is the Alchemist's Delight, a long textured bronze tube coiled into a crozier shape, fitted with pipes and valves and decorative grape leaves. The muzzle of it has been tempered into a gradient of reds and purples due to heat.
The second gun is Garmr, a much shorter weapon with a driftwood one-hand grip studded with nails. The barrel is dark cold iron patterned around its length with Norse runes, with the muzzle being the head of a snarling wolf. The whole thing is covered in bright red blood splatter, with the implication that once you've fired your shat you can just as well batter people with it.
The third gun is the Skórzana, it has a very long leather and banded iron barrel fitted onto an unprocessed birch pole. The barrel has a wide axehead attached to it in a style similar to a bardiche.
The fourth gun is Piquerisme, with a wide wooden handle marked with knife marks ending in a short hooked barrel on one side and a swordstaff on the other, both made of gleaming steel. The barrel has a simple serpentine trigger holding a slow match coiled around the handle.
The fith gun is Umirtà, with a large column-shaped brass barrel fitted on a ribbed wooden handle and fitted with sky blue tassels. The barrel ends in a small axe head, and bears the inscription "ANTONIVS CRASSVS 'SALVE' DICIT" which can be translated as "Fat Tony says 'hello' ".

It's clobbering time !! #weapon #art

A mighty selection of five beat sticks. The first is an arming axe with a scalloped bit and generally made of blackened still on a leather wrapped wood handle. The second one is a flanged mace made entirely of blued steel, with a cord wrapped handle bracketed by two small disc guards. The third one is a warhammer with a steel head made up of a long piercing pike on one side and a two-pronged fork-looking hammer on the other. It is held on a wood handle with gilded fittings, and the grip is made of a richly dyed leather. The fourth beat stick is a long pole hammer topped with a spear head, with two curved quillions sprouting off the half way point of the haft which itself is reinforced for most of its length by a languette. Every bit of metal is browned with age and patina as well as featuring the occasional spot of rust. The last one is a Napoleonic sapper axe but medievalised for her pleasure. It features a long axe bit made of polished steel, with a stout spike on the reverse side, mounted on a beefy wooden handle decorated with brass studs and fittings, the later being embossed with lettering.

All sorta swords ! #weapon #art

Four swords, alike in dignity. The first one which stands for a short sword for the game I've been hired to work on, is a katzbalger. It has a typical figure eight hilt made of two twisted brass quillions each looping on their side before curving down slightly towards the hand. The entire grip is brass and shaped like a flaring tower, with the crenelated battlement serving as the pommel. It makes for a pretty short but secure grip in the hand, which coupled with a short, thick, double fullered and doubled edged blade made it ideal for close quarter combat in the press of pikes.
The second one stands for a 'bastard sword', which I decided to represent with a wide, flat, cut-centric blade with three hairline fullers. It has a long handle and two recurved quillions made of blued steel, but most of the grip and the hilt are covered in a tightly fitted leather rainguard embossed with the letters BfS in blackletter.
The third was supposed to be a two-handed sword, and since I had to draw a large flamberge later on as well I made this one a simpler greatsword, more like a montante. It has a long decently slender blade with a flat spine going halfway down it, that bears some cutouts arranged in a diagonal hatching pattern. This is not historical but I was kind running out of ideas to make these look very different without being too wildly expensive as a generic weapon. The hilt is made of twisted gilt metal with a side ring, with a gilt brass wire grip and a square steel pommel.
The fourth sword stands for a one handed "war sword" so I went for a beefy bladed arming sword, with a wide hollow ground double edged blade tapering down to a sharp point. The hilt is an S figure made of flat steel quillions, the grip is wire, and it sports a large wheel pommel.

Dagger ? I hardly know her ! #weapon #art

A spread of five different daggers. First up is more of a knife or seax, with a broken back shape almost like a clip point, and a handle made of wood and antler with brass ferrules.
The second one is a more classic style, aka a tiny sword. It has recurve quillions and a a black leather rainguard with gold trimming.
The third one is a BIG BOI rondelle dagger with a set of thick gilded disc guard and pommel, with a single-edged blade ending in a reverse false edge, and two deep fullers running most of its length.
The fourth one is one of those so called swordbreaker daggers, a Renaissance style dagger with a complex hilt and a blade with deep notches to lock and bind your adversary's sword, which would usually be a rapier and therefore engage with those pretty significantly.
The fifth one is one of those fancy and dubiously functional spring-catch trident parrying dagger, where the blade splits open into prongs to catch incoming blows. This one is made of bronze and the hilt features the face of Medusa, with the quillions and pommel being made of coiled serpents.

"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence
they did the research in the first place because they believed you and wanted to tell people about it. they are not our enemies.

reblog by aphony-cree

people always go "Instead of spending all that time on a study they could have just listened to us when we said these thing happen"

they did listen, that's how studies work, they asked people about their experiences and put all the data together in a nice package that can be cited

For #jackzoc_tober2026 day 2, First Interaction, a repost! This was their first *positive* interaction. A week into school, Tink (Del), spills his ink on his homework and rushes back to the dorm to hide. His roommate, who hadn't given him the time of day before that, checks in. #hellionsofcarnocht

A younger Tink and Balial. Ba looks mostly the same as usual, with scruffier clothes and long hair. Tink has short hair and is in a version of the Lyceum uniform. Tink looks as if he's been crying, and is covered in ink. He's holding a scrunched up piece of paper in his hand and looking away from Ba. Ba is regarding him with a cautious smile.

neeta and emery drawing wick.
wick asks "can i see yet?" and neeta says "nooot yeeet... aaalmooost..."
they turn their drawings around. neeta's is more detailed but a little awkward looking. emery's is a scrawling with wick looking mad.
wick asks "did you have to give me the angry eyes" while emery embarrassedly responds "you were frowning..."

A paper engineering feat of flipbookery as well as killer drawing!
