I do not play Frontier Scum but the supplement looks really stunning: the fonts, the layout, the color scheme, etc. And so many activities in such a small format! Congrats, it's a nice one!

A small technical question: did you print the supplement to take the picture of it? Or is it just a damn good usage of the perspective tool (or whatever it is called in your fav software)?

Thanks so much!! 
To make the image, I found an existing image online to trace and reference, and then in PaintTool SAI 2 I used the "distort" tool to overlay my design onto that image. Adjusted the brightness of each panel to give the sense that they were pointing slightly different directions and therefore catching the light differently. Then drew the shadows with the "marker" and "blur" tools, and adjusting the transparency.
PaintTool SAI is absolutely not the best software for this, but I don't have Photoshop or anything similar, so I made do! :)) 

Didn't know about PaintTool, seems very lightweight indeed. I kinda managed to reproduce something similar in GIMP and it really gives a very professional look to the pamphlet. Thanks for your tips!
