Build a Token - Pack 01
Hello everyone!
We've got something new and exciting for you to play with!
As many of you know we are working on a "Token maker" app, which is more or less ready for testing from a software side of things... However it'll take us a little bit more time to make all the art thats required for (alpha) launch and it'll inevitably require some tweaking along the way etc. We wanna make sure we do things the proper way so it's hard to judge when it's all going to be ready as a whole.
However, we as we are making this art... we've decided to not keep you waiting and let you start playing with it now!
This release starts a new line of packs that we plan to expand upon with future releases as we build out our library for the eventual Token Maker release.
It features a modular approach to Tokens with plenty of various gear and accessory pieces that can be combined in limitless ways on top of a "Base" that also has various options to choose from including skin color, ears, tails, horns etc.
In this first pack, there are over 45 pieces for the "Base" and over 45 pieces for "Gear" that you can combine however you like. All pieces are also available in multiple color variants!
Here is a preview of 16 token examples made with this pack that are available as a free download below:
Build a Token pieces are avialable as individual PNG files that "snap" on top of each other as well as PSD which has all pieces sorted and grouped for easier token creation as well as applied automatic drop shadow effect.
- If you do not own Photoshop, the PSD file can also be opened in Photopea.com (Completely free browser based option), Affinity, Gimp, CSP or any other software that supports PSDs.
(Photoshop, Photopea and Affinity are most compatible as CSP for example doesnt support the automatic drop shadow effect. )
- Default resolution is 1200x1200px which is "Scale300", since many pieces can go outside of the standard "Normal" sized 400x400 bounding box.
We hope you'll enjoy this type of content and we are looking forward to seeing your creations!
Total # of tokens in this pack: Too many to count!

Please, don't let people wait so long for an update. I know it's a long way to create things and to make them work, but since you have a lot of already made assets try to adjust them into the psd so that we can create more tokens. After 9 months it would be so precious.. Out there we can only use heroforge to create tokens, but since the style is so off from the creatures you make it so bad to see in a TTV. There is no need to release big updates with 900 assets, 20 poses or so on, but maybe some weapons, armor and hairstyle every month? It would be so much appreciated!
Are you also gonna be making options to make monster and creature token?
I got this pack a while back and used it to make tokens for my players, and some NPCs and creatures by getting the top down tokens for animals and resizing the clothing assets on top. Really love the artwork! Once you've got the base sorted, do you see a future where you add more options for species/ancestries? And, i understand this is a lot of extra work, would you consider making different assets for different systems? Like the kobold in pathfinder looks different from kobolds in dnd. I've tried using your style guide to make my own creature tokens, and they're fine ig, but you guys' art is so much prettier 💗 I would totally buy a pack with pathfinder-compatible tokens!
If I may make a suggestion: wider leg stance variations so you can make riders that fit over appropriate mount/beast tokens.
Could you add serpentine lower half and more animal features like antlers or wolf ears?
I actually need a tutorial because this is pretty intetersting buy I'm like too useless to know how to use it.
Finally started a new campaign since this came out and made some custom tokens for my players. I love this, can't wait for more assets.
Absolutely amazing love your content!
These are incredible and were easy to use. I can only speak for myself but expanding on this would be super valuable to me and a huge reason to stay subbed.
How do we get access to the alpha?
This is epic. I agree John D. You are the premium token and asset creator. My players love when your tokens come out. Thanks for the awesome art!
Looks good. I’ve been meaning to ask you if you would consider making some Eladrin elf tokens in their various “seasons”. I may be able to just assemble them myself now. Thanks for all your work. You’re the standard I judge any other assets or token I consider acquiring.
This is very.. very cool.
Wow, this is great! One of my players was very happy to finally have a matching FA token for his warrior. Can't wait to get more hair styles and spell effects so I can do the others.
Wooo! So nice!
Awesome! I fear you may have created a monster though - so many playable species, weapons and armour out there! :) I ended up using XNConvert to batch auto-crop a bunch of the files down to size, assemble, then convert the assembled png to webp for Foundry. Worked a treat.
This is a great idea - thank you. Sorry for the dumb question but how do you actually make a token? There doesn't seem to be any app in the download. There are folders with lots of gear and bases but how do you assemble them?
There is a PSD file attached as explained in the post.
Wow, so cool...thanks!
I've been wanting this for many years, and seeing your work appear in the token editor for Ember just made me want it more. Thanks!
This is what i’v been looking for! Dream come true!
WOW!!!! This is going to be such a game changer for being able to use your tokens and customize them for each player!!1 So excited to try this!
This is exactly what I need, thank you for this. Please keep doing more variations and stuff like this!
What agreat idea a token maker! I am very intereted!
This is an extremely cool idea, thank you!
Wow, a token maker tool is exactly what I've been dreaming of for a long time. I strongly support it.
A Christmas miracle!
Omg this is so cool! Is the token maker gonna be for specific levels of support or for all supporters?
The monetization has not been decided yet. There are lot of unknowns right now because of the upcoming Patreon changes, so honestly We are not sure yet what we gonna do.
