Friday Art Attack

Well... it hasn't been the most productive of weeks when it comes to posting.  Next week will be guaranteed just as bad, because unlike this week that's just ending, I won't even have access to online most of the week.  But, well... here's your regularly scheduled Friday Art Attack anyway.


When you're in a graveyard and you see a tomb like this, you can be sure that's the one you want to loot.  Pro tip for D&D players, I suppose.


Speaking of D&D, here's another interpretation of Vecna, with a ghostly hand and eye replacing the missing ones.


Venus cat.  This reminds me of Carson of Venus and the Frazetta cover for it.


Yeenoghu, the demon-prince of gnolls.  Another D&D meta-character.


If the Empire ever wiped out the Gungans, the galaxy wouldn't mourn that much.


The Ken Kelly cover to Swords of the Horseclans, a popular series when I was a kid (or, at least, there was a very long shelf of them at the bookstores and libraries when I was a kid.)


One of my favorite Warhammer undead, which no longer exist, I guess, since the Tomb Kings are gone.  I'm pretty sure the models for these are out of print now.  Sad-face.  They were awesome.


A fantasy wizards from a setting like DH5.  They'er not kindly Gandalfy or even Merlin types.  They're weird, scary, probably fanatic and anti-social psychopaths who's exposure to energies that Man Was Not Meant to Wield have caused them to look sickly, deformed or both.


Thuvia and the banths, by the master himself.  Great image.


A Wayne Reynolds werewolf from some card art, I believe.


Deneghra the War Witch done in a pin-up style.  Heh.  Kinda funny stuff.


I'm not quite sure wha this is, but maybe giving him a few coins is a good idea...


A werew-hyena done in a fairly realistic style.  I've got some others that are more stylized or superhero styled as well. 


A wight according to 5e.  Keep in mind that barrow-wight is a word Tolkien used to refer to the draugr or the haugbui, and William Morris had already established that precedent before Tolkien.


Given my focus on the Old West and fantasy, it's inevitable that I'd try to find every image of this type that I could, right?  You'd actually think that there'd be more than there are.

As an side, although that steam engine isn't completely relatable to a real steam engine, it's clearly of the sort that belongs more to the 1940s and 1950s than the 1880s.


A nice ink of the wolfman.
