Beyond Countless Doorways Art Preview
Bringing
to life 18 all-new planes is no easy task, but our team
of artists rose to the challenge. In Beyond
Countless Doorways, we enlisted the help of illustrators
Eric Lofgren, Tyler Walpole, and Kev Crossley. Each plane
is illustrated by just one artist, to maintain a singular
vision of each new and exciting locale. For more on the
artists, see the bios at the bottom of the page.

Born
in 1972 in Leeds, England, Kev
Crossley learned early on that a monster lived in the
abandoned house down the street—after that, he saw
monsters everywhere. He drew monsters all the way through
school, then went to art college and university, where he
was told not to. After he got a job in computer games, people
started paying him to draw monsters. Moral? Art college
and university were a waste of time. You can also see his
work in Legacy of the
Dragons and Hyperconscious.
Illustrator
Eric
Lofgren’s early influences include comic book art,
the oils of Frazetta, and the inks of Berni Wrightson. Upon
discovering roleplaying games, he schooled himself in fantasy
art. After years of working other jobs to sustain himself
while drawing away evenings and weekends, he decided to
take the plunge, illustrating full time in the RPG industry.
See more of his work in The
Complete Book of Eldritch Might, Book
of Hallowed Might II: Portents and Visions, and
The Diamond Throne.
Years
ago, Tyler
Walpole spent a good deal of time in school being scolded
by his teachers for drawing when he should have been paying
attention in class. Today, many of those same teachers are
happy that the self-taught 27-year-old is able to
pursue his illustration career full time. He lives in Des
Moines, Iowa, with his wife Petra and son Keegan, and co-owns
a comic book store. See more of his work in The
Complete Book of Eldritch Might and Legacy
of the Dragons.
