This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Voros;951831Dragonlance's success was intimately tied to the evocative artwork I think. That black dragon cover to Dragons of Despair is iconographic.

Dragonlance in an Old School inspirational thread?

(Granted, DL was my personal "old school" as they were among the first modules I DM'd.)
Swords & Wizardry & Manga ... oh my.
(Beware. This is a Kickstarter link.)

You know what I miss?  Interior illustrations in novels for adults.  What I just went looking for doesn't seem to be online, but here's some other pieces by the same illustrator, Esteban Maroto.
