Here is a blast from the past of some of the cards I did for the Dune CCG in the 90s.
As has probably been chronicled before by other artists from the
project, we at first were directed to make it look like the movie and
then later were told not to in later sets.
I could not find the cards to of my favorite paintings for the sets
and did more of them than I thought. I hope I can find the rest. Many of
the original art scans are on long forgotten zip drive cartridges(I DO
NOT miss those)…
Of course it is crazy to find anything you did 18 or so years ago.
(And I do hundreds of illustrations a year, do the math and imagine an
episode of Hoarders and you get the idea of how many books, cards,
paintings etc. I have…)
It is funny to look at them now. I would probably make some different
design decisions. Many of the illustrations look like they take place
in a hotel (perhaps an art deco Hilton in desperate need of a remodel?)
and I like to think I would make better composition choices now…

FUN FACT: The model for this illustration was in my Industrial Design class at UC and is a designer at Hasbro. He also is in some on my D & D art and a couple other games. |
