Friday Art Attack


An alternative Vader.  Really nice looking.


Dragons.  In space.  Daniel Aronsen is really on to something, I think.  This is some cover art for one of his books, if I remember correctly.  I think I saved it off of Facebook.


This is also a book cover, although I can't remember from what, from the 60s.  Which is probably obvious by the style.


Barbarians, undead, and snow.  This meme has been greatly popularized by Game of Thrones.


TRON Vader!


I don't know what to make of this, which is titled "Abominable Beauty."  But hey; gratuitous sexiness is kind of a thing in fantasy art, amirite?


Part of a series by Wayne Reynolds where the Paizo iconics fight weird Oriental monsters.


Another Paizo adventure cover; against the fish people on the beach. 


WAR again, but from Eberron this time.  This is the cover art for Secrets of Sarlona, which spelled out a kind of alternate version of Eberron in some ways (not really, but it was a continent that was otherwise not covered by the setting, so it gave you all kinds of different things to do in Eberron.)


More Paizo and Japanese monsters.  Using the iconic samurai character was probably gratuitous.


And more Paizo and Japanese monsters. Using the iconic monk character was a bit less gratuitous than the samurai, but not really—it's only that the monk (for a variety of reasons, most of them bad) is considered more of a core class to Pathfinder (and D&D) than the samurai is.


Sasquatch!  Or gnoph-keh, maybe...


Floating islands is always a great fantasy idea, although the cheesy movie Avatar made it part of sci-fi too, I guess.
