D&D 5E (2024) WotC Unveils Dragon Delves' Eclectic Art Styles

In a short 1-minute video, Wizards of the Coast has 'revealed' Dragon Delves, the upcoming anthology of dragon-themed adventures. The video showcases the book's eclectic art styles.

Dragon Delves contains 10 adventurers from levels 1-12, each featuring a different type of dragon. The book is due out July 8th.

It's a visual history, showcasing different artwork featuring that particular type of dragon.

It might be a metatextual history - like, the history of how that dragon type has been used in D&D, across various settings and editions?

Oh. That makes sense. I was being way too literal.

Cool.

What's going on in that last picture (the red dragon) of the article?
I see it's a zoom of the pic on the TOC page, but can't quite figure out what that little person(?) in front of his mouth is doing, or what's in the dragon's mouth above the person?

I think that's a chin spike.

I quite like the githyanki. Anyone know who the artist is?

Ah, so it is. I was seeing was a high-priestess with a spear or something.
And I even had my glasses on.

Very likely Justine Jones, who also did the alt cover.

I'm digging the various styles, from the whimsical gold dragon, to old school B/W, realistic, and definitely the blacklight ones. Variety is nice, so even if one style isnt your jam, something else might be.

I'm definitely going to pick it up as I want to encourage them to make more themed anthologies. Ones for specific campaign settings would be wonderful.

 

[el-remmen]

Yes. I prefer a bunch of different styles in a book like this. Some of this art is the most interesting I have seen in a WotC product since I returned to D&D.

Fairly certain that's Justine Jones' work.

I love the goofy cartoon dragon in the third pic
