Deviant Friday – Laemeur Edition

November 11, 2011March 13, 2021 / jstater / 3 Comments

Happy Veteran’s Day, folks – especially to any genuine veterans reading this blog. Thank You!

Today’s delve into DeviantArt takes up to Laemeur, a hipster with beautiful line work and lovely colors. Much of his work that would interest gamers concerns ’80s pop culture, but there’s all sorts of goodness on his DeviantArt page. I can’t think of any project – comic book or gaming – that couldn’t benefit from his illustration skills. Go take a look.

Deviant Friday – Kennon James Edition

October 14, 2011March 6, 2021 / jstater

Kennon James (Kennon9) is one of those artists who I would love to just toss some rules to and say “Here, illustrate these. Whatever you want.” Great style – very expressive and fun.

Deviant Friday – Eric Canete Edition

September 30, 2011March 6, 2021 / jstater / 2 Comments

KAH-reload seems to mostly work in comic book images these days, though I remember some really nice fantasy stuff once upon a time. His style is maze-like – it draws in the eye and then gives it a roller coaster ride. They contain so much energy they make me feel like the paper is straining to hold them.

SHANNA SHE DEVIL

I recently had another reason to look at some New Mutants material. It was really a fine piece of work back in the day.

Deviant Friday – Jonboy Meyers Edition

September 16, 2011March 13, 2021 / jstater

How about ending the week with some cake, of the cheese and beef variety. (Wow – that sounded better in my head – oh well). Jonboy Meyers works in comic books primarily, but he has a great dynamic style that does not shy away from depictions of feminine pulchritude. Enjoy!

Deviant Friday – Joel Carroll Edition

September 9, 2011March 6, 2021 / jstater / 3 Comments

Readers of the Land of Nod should not be strangers to Joel Carroll, the artist who worked on Mystery Men! and oft posted on this blog. While you folks might know him primarily for his superhero artwork, he dabbles in many eras and I actually first discovered him on a site showing some of his D-n-D monster sketches. Check it out, gentle readers …

This lady would look good in Space Princess. In fact, how about some stats for that game …

And I might as well give him some Space Princess stats as well …

Today, I peer uncomfortably at jimmymcwicked. He makes fun drawings of fun stuff that are cool and fun. He also sells his wares HERE. Go visit, won’t you?

COMMANDO

Yes – he’s a commando. Not a freaking trite, overused ninja.

Deviant Friday – JHarren Edition

August 26, 2011March 6, 2021 / jstater / 1 Comment

JHarren has a frantic, oozy style that I appreciate – and plenty of Kirbytech, the geometries of which make a nice contrast to his fluid inks. I can imagine all sorts of game books that would benefit from some JHarren pieces. Enjoy, an be sure to visit JHarren’s Deviant art gallery for much more.

Deviant Friday – Joe Pekar Edition

August 19, 2011March 6, 2021 / jstater / 1 Comment

Joe Pekar – AKA JFury – besides being a generally skilled artist, is especially skilled at pin-up art. If pin-up art offends your sensibilities, you’ll find a treasure trove of offense (NSFW) on his Deviant art page. Enjoy some of his tamer offerings here, ladies and gents.
