Content We Liked: 31st March, 2024

 

Although it’s a big internet out there, the Tabletop digital universe is pretty small and spread out. In Content We Liked, we take a look at the articles, videos, podcasts, and products that caught our eyes or were noteworthy during the prior week you might have missed.

 

On the Internet at Large

 

Our Easter weekend theme for 2024 are “Horrifying things that we just can’t look away from”, starting with this excellent but terrifying Blachitsu take on Conquest’s Spires Avatara, channelling some seriously sick gothic vibes. Something you absolutely want on the mantlepiece.

 

Our second entry in our eggs-estencial horror duology might not become clear at first. That isn’t a photo of Tom Cruise. It’s a painted figure. Seriously. Just lick through and marvel at Actual Wizard Darren Han’s work.

 

A final palate cleanser for this week, just in time for the animated X-Men revival series. The most perfect Demonic Tutor to ever have existed.
