'sup /tg/ (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"

>>
>>53394322
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...

More modern, but you can make it work for victorian times

I dont know if this image is a joke or not, but you can make it work also.
>>
>>53394669
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

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.

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).
