Fight On! #15 art thread

[calithena]

Well, we will see how this goes. I'm pumped and I'll see what I can do about getting some old hands back on deck.

In the meantime, I need some help with a couple things! To start with,

1) I need someone who can put the Fight On! logo onto the cover, along with some corner text. I'm ashamed to say that I don't know how to do this and I've always relied on others. (And of course Ignatius doesn't help with the visuals either. "I'm a concept guy, a text editor" - right.)

2) I need one or two black and white pictures of gremlins, for a gremlin character class article.

More coming!

- An image of two adventurers who bear an uncanny resemblance to Boinger and Zereth.

- Tom Wham flying through space on dragonback around a ringed planet

[tomgordon]

Oops, didn't know your production setup. Obviously I can also do the first item, if you've got the logo file/text that needs to go in.

[calithena]

You have a long memory like me! Thanks Tom. I'll send you some stuff.

I need to track down some more of the old artists - please come back with a picture or two if you can, so much amazing work we were so privileged to publish! - but I'm glad that you, Kelvin Green, Pat Farley, Will Douglas, and Justine Shaw (https://www.nowheregirl.com/) are already on board! Let's get the band back together!

Let me know anything else you need. I'd gladly donate time/art/writing.

- an image of an Eastern Orthodox priest in conflict with a classically D&D type monster (eg displacer beast, otyugh, bullete)

That sounds interesting. I could probably draw that this week.

Sold! I want your dwarfy dwarf too!

[tomgordon]

Guess I better call 'dibs' on Tom Wham, since the doodle is almost finished anyway...

[calithena]

Hee hee. You're going to illustrate half the issue the way you're going. I appreciate the contributions though! I think we have a dwarf image already but the class sounded intriguing!

Heh, ok. The way I see it:
1. Wizard tower adventure
2. Eastern Orthodox Priest battling a classic DnD monster
3. A Dwarf class

I've already got the class mostly written up, just need to put the finishing touches on it.

That's a full plate for me between other work I have to do.

Wow!

[tomgordon]

Thanks! Couldn't pass up a tribute to Wham, I spent far too much time with his Planet Busters and Awful Green Things (as well as making my own homemade chit-filled ripoff games). Here's the final:

Purple worm in action!

calithena : I emailed you a larger .jpg, thanks!

[calithena]

The elf with the crossbow has the right idea I think. I love it!

[calithena]

- I have some spells that need illustrated, PM me if you want these.

- Some "dorky" or "hopeless" adventurers, a humorous representation of PCs with low ability scores.

[calithena]

I'm checking with Chris Holmes on the Boinger and Zereth image, hopefully we'll have some clarity there soon.

Heh. Here's a couple that'll be keeping the cleric busy...

[calithena]

This doesn't go with any article, but I got a mental image today of Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella as D&D characters, with Candace in the background in the role of a necromancer or evil empress or whatever.

[tomgordon]

Also did up the low-attribute cretins in color, as I needed the practice... and they already have little else going for them.

Psionic uni-crawler!

[Vile Traveller]

Anyone fancy doing a Lizard Woman Thief and a Gelatinous Cube Fighter/Cleric?

[calithena]

We need cool scenes for a spider-infested underground temple - giant spider queen and minion spiders (possibly with a vague resemblance to Roman Catholic vestments in their decorations?) - adventurers fighting spiders - a spectre possessing an adventurer - stuff like that.

[calithena]

Hello artists! The spiders are almost done, although if anyone has a developed dungeon scene with spiders or spectres we could probably still take it.

What we need now are images inspired by Sinbad, Krull, or Hawk the Slayer! Please send them along!
