The Banewarrens Art Preview!

As we complete our production of the new mega-adventure The Banewarrens, we thought you might like a taste of some of the new art in the book. We were fortunate enough to gather together five talented artists to work on this adventure's interiors. You'll find these pieces and more presented in the book's illustration gallery, a special section reminiscent of those found in classic adventure modules.

Illustrator Toren "MacBin" Atkinson is known by night as the lead singer of the Cthulhu rock band, The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, but by day he collects Saturday morning cartoons and draws monsters for money! You've seen his work in the award-winning books Delta Green and Death in Freeport. He recently illustrated the electronic version of If Thoughts Could Kill and Book of Eldritch Might II: Songs and Souls of Power. He is currently writing and drawing the Spaceship Zero roleplaying game. You can check out more of his work online.

Lars Grant-West made a big splash with his fabulous black-and-white line art in the 3rd Edition Core Rulebooks, and this East Coast artist has gone on to create some impressive cover art as well. Lars also painted the cover illustrations for Skreyn's Register: The Bonds of Magic.

Game fans worldwide know Quinton Hoover for his terrific color work in the Magic: the Gathering trading card game. He lives in the Pacific Northwest. Check out his website to see more of his work.

Alan Pollack was born in New Jersey in 1964. He studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York City and in 1991 received his first cover assignment, for TSR’s Dungeon magazine. Two years later, Alan became a full-time illustrator at TSR. In 1997 he went out on his own and has worked for many roleplaying game companies as well as Del-Rey, ROC, Tor Books, and Wizards of the Coast. Alan lives in Freehold, New Jersey, with his wife, their two children, and his Siberian huskies Xena and Pikachu. Alan also painted the cover illustrations for Mindscapes. Take a look at his website.

Although Arne Swekel has been keeping busy with color work, including illustrations for the Harry Potter trading card game, roleplaying fans know him for his fabulous black-and-white line art from the 3rd Edition Core Rulebooks and many other titles.
