[QUOTE="Storn, post: 5732100, member: 6698"] I've been working on a game, Other Worlds, off and on for about 8 months. I finished the cover a week and half ago, but was waiting for Mark (Humphreys) to give the go-ahead for posting and some guerrilla marketing synergy, linking up with his threads. Other Worlds is a multi-genre role playing game, so I got to do all kinds of stuff. Stuff that I tried to cram into the cover, without making it unreadable. I am going to post up the pencils, so you can see that I did take a flying robot eyeball out in the paint. This kind of movie style poster is NOT easy to pull off. But I think it is one of my best paintings. I'm pretty happy with it (watch, now folks will hate it... I'm rarely happy with my work). The painting is oil on masonite 18 x 24. The art itself comes out to about 16x22. If you are interested in a print (or PLEASE!, the original itself!!), they are on sale here: [url=http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/storn-cook.html]Storn Cook - Fine Art[/url] Here be the pencils: [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y35/Storn/OWcoversketchIII.jpg[/IMG] Here be the paintin' itself: [IMG]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y35/Storn/OWcov72.jpg[/IMG] Like I said, I've been working on this project for some time. I've done quite a few interiors for this project, and most are all pencil. There are a couple of previously done art that was used that are not pencil, but they are the vast minority and I even "stressed" my inks to make it look a bit more pencil-y to fit into the vibe of the whole book.
