Generally, engraving descriptions are ordered slightly differently.  They also can't have the "all craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality" line, because that's restricted to artifacts.
"Engraved on the wall is a masterful engraving of (stuff) by (artist).  The artwork relates to (historical scene of great carnage)."
I think it goes something like that, anyway.

Looking at it now, "engraved on the wall is a masterful depiction of (stuff)" seems more likely.  I don't have easy access to DF right now, though, so I can't confirm one way or the other.

well from what i can remember it just says "a human" or "a battle" or other stuff like that, and then it goes into the detailed description afterwards xD

it might give the name of who the image is of as well but i'm not sure about that.

currently rumaging through a crypt tho, the mummy thinks of me as a friend so i'm just takin what i want. i was sure to drop my bodies off at the keep before i ran out to get new leather stuff tho.

just looked at my arrows cus i noticed they were apparently decorated, the have an image of rat weed in tetrahedrite and an image of square cut gems in rope reed fiber, duno how they managed to get those onto an arrow and have them stay there but its still pretty cool to know i'm throwing art around when i need to throw some arrows :D

and yea i'm changin it to depiction cus that does sound more likely and slightly less silly then engraved on the wall is a "quality" engraving.

I suggest either going with '...in which his face was melted off.' or '...during which his face was melted off.' All engraving depictions tend to sound rather highbrow, so good grammar is essential. :)

So I made it to Zitha's lair, after nearly dying of starvation.  And Kobold snipers.



This is more an excercise in picking a colour palette than something I want to serialise.  But being that this game is a bottomless inspiration-mine I can't help myself!  Might go back to killing some adventureblobs after this.

Fighting my way through a necromancer's tower, I just discovered that bisection doesn't necessarily kill zombies. I can imagine my guy wiping the gore off his silver great axe, then noticing the zombie's torso is still attacking him. Feel free to use this as inspiration for a drawing.

Edit: On the other hand, attacks that glance off can collapse zombies just fine. ???
I posted this a while ago. While it's not so great, maybe you can make something great out of it.

I am going to take "Make something great out of it" as the equivalent of saying 'Make it Awesome'.
Which I can totally do.
Right now!
