Heh... I'm a knob. I recognize most of those images, but never knew who did them. I love the one from Rifts: Africa.

Tell me about it! I didn't know that he did the artwork for Doom II until a few days ago.

Man, has that guy done anything since darkwerks?

InDepth · Posted: Tue Feb 06, 2001 9:00 am

Good question Waylon. Maybe he has done more work but it hasn't yet been published in book form thus no new scans? Maybe I will ask him.

He did creature designs for the game, Heretic 2, and has apparently been working on some sort of illustrated story book for a number of years. Definitely be interesting to hear what else he's been up to since Darkwerks though.

Row.

He did the creature designs in heretic 2? Hmm. Perhaps I need to play through that game again. It sure was cool...

Lately he also has been working on a number of movies as concept designer (on Blade 2 I think), he's doing a lot of book covers, illustrations for cards (wizard of the coast) and some covers for TSR tabletop games.
He's a very busy man, and I think one of the best artists in the world. Expect to see more and more of him.
Check his personal website at www.bromart.com

Great stuff Eric. Perhaps you could try do a little interview with him if possible? I'd definately like to hear what he has to say.

I think he once drew my grand-grand-grandmother naked, sitting in a large bowl of fruits. (I'll skip the whipped cream part).

Brom is one of my favorite artists but I thought your site was for digital art only.
Although I could see you making an exception in this case.

Rob,

I have started creeping my way into traditional artwork as well. Look for more from the likes of Brom, Don Seegmiller, and Larry Elmore. I have pretty much come to the conclusion that I will post any art I like... regardless of the medium. Also, it enables me to have more frequent updates as I dont get alot of submissions and it takes a long time to contact artists.

Hope this makes some sort of sense.

Eric

Sounds good! Larry Elmore is another one on my favorite artists list! Keep up the good work on you site!

Rob,

Thank you for your compliments. I will keep plugging away at the site since that seems to be what I do best :-) When am I going to see some of your artwork land in my open gallery? (I received your AOD submissions BTW)

Eric

RobT · Posted: Thu Feb 08, 2001 10:18 am

Really? I thought I submitted those to the open gallery.

I was kinda wondering how they fit into the "Rebirth" theme of the competition. Would you like me to post them to the open gallery?

Eric

RobT · Posted: Thu Feb 08, 2001 1:52 pm

That would be great!
