@Justicar, thanks for sharing! Yes, the game sorely needs more ice tomes.

I have been struggling for a while to make a White Walker like faction. Or even just a fun snow Dragon one. Reading how things work the game just doesn't really provide the full tools for a snow/ice based play through. Then I came here and found your tomes. Looking forward to trying these out, they look like just the sort of thing to scratch that itch for a good and proper fun time in the snow!

@Videogamer40000,

The tome art is based on existing tome art as you can see the book cover and pages look the same as other base game tomes. For Tome of Endless Winter, I used Tome of Cryomancy as a base. I generated AI art for the mountains since I can't draw, then I painted in the snow and ice covering the rest of the book. Heavy editing to make the colors match and to add the glowing effects.

For the icons I followed the same steps. Mixed usage of base game icons and AI generated art whenever I needed something unique. Painting and editing. I go through many iterations making sure the icons match with the tome and with the style of the base game icons.

Hey, Visie. I was curious. How was the tome art and skill art made for this mod and the tome of Arcfire?
