'sup Veeky Forums (dunno if it's the correct greeting line nowadays)
I was here ten years ago and I collected pretty awesome art directory, but I need your help.
I am making a pulpy weird victorian age RPG in FAE and I need some arts to inspire me and to help my players.
First adventure is supposed to be in India (before fall of Mughal Empire) or in Malaysia in the same time, later we will move to Hong Kong. It's not steampunk, it supernatural weirdness, maybe some horror, maybe some adventuring in hidden temples, forgotten civilizations and such.
Any help would be appriated, I will be dumping some of my old stuff from my "character folders"

I'm kinda seeing the Victorian age of these pics, but they don't seem that victorian, maybe its just me.

But anyways, I might as well help

Why though?
Liam Martin
They are not... I have folders and folders of random fantasy stuff. And sci-fi. And shadowrun and exalted and world of darkness, call of cthullhu.
But I don't have almost anything that is Victorian or Far East exotica with touch of adventure without some elves or animish things in them.
or rather I have something - but it's steampunky and I don't want a steampunk...

Alright, gotcha
Liam Foster
Dunno, tell me a story behind this image, to be honest I was just donwloading whole threads in the past and I don't even have this sorted. I am posting something from my "gunslingers???" folder.
Brandon Morales
Anything you want in particular, I have lot of stuff, several gigs of images from Veeky Forums from a 2007-2010.

Oliver Roberts
And OP remember that most equipment will be heavy if it is going to be useful, this shit was 91 pounds!
Evan Flores
More modern, but you can make it work for victorian times
Adrian Bell
Yup, this gear basically gives 2 Aspects: "Bulletproof" and "Heavy as fuck"
Thanks for this, already saved
Elijah Foster
I dont know if this image is a joke or not, but you can make it work also.
Nathaniel Ramirez
I don't know what FAE is, but a good way to simulate heavy armor is to do what numenera does; when you first don it your might and speed both go down, if you take a break to get used to it your might comes back up, but your speed is always reduced
Jordan Evans
And remember other countries besides England exist, here's something from that period from italy(?)
Ryan Cook
Apparently this was a real weapon
Landon King
Another view
Logan Peterson
Hard to see, but this is a victorian self defense weapon, a knife hidden in a big frilly hat
Justin Thompson
FATE Accelerated Edition - basically only Aspects matter, nothing else. Everything is Aspects. Gear is Aspects, Surrounding is Aspects and so on.
Whole system revolves around using FATE Points, their economy, spending them and getting them.
Camden Parker
Golden stonemason dagger
Thomas Foster
This was also a real weapon
Landon Lee
This is great! Saving and using for sure.
Lincoln Nguyen
So how helpful has this thread been so far OP?
Gabriel Peterson
On to locations

Ian Evans
Weapons are saved, photos and ads I will use as a color for the start of the adventure.
I'd love some locations, some Far East exotica viewing through colonial powers eyes. Something from Cambodia, maybe Mughal Empire stuff. Can be supernatural (no elves pls, I have too many elves everywhere).
Lucas Taylor
Take inspiration from political cartoons, maybe even have the players come across them

Tyler Myers
Yeah, I'm adding some of this stuff to my numenera game

OP, If you are going to explore the colonial aspect of the time period, don't shy away from the times it was beneficial to the local populous,even if you have to mix it in with 'belgian congo' levels of evil.
Luke Brooks
This image was likely PR, but services like this existed, at some level, through out colonial Africa.

Jacob Cox
not actually victorian, it's an early space suit
would work super well in a victorian punky space setting though
