This
lightly drawn and small illustration was the banner top for Tim Kask's
editorials. While there isn't much to it the drawing does manage to depict the
cauldron that was used as the title of the editorial column. I don't
particularly like it and it seems something of a throw away picture
unfortunately. The kettle is oddly drawn, I've never been sure what the black
smears on the surface are meant to represent and the runes beneath the mantel
are an odd combination that look to me as if they were just added to give the
image some kind of magic-icity. A thumbs down for me. It seems like the last
thing anyone would want in the very first issue of their brand new magazine is
bad art, but so far that seems to be the direction that was chosen back then.
Slightly better than I could do. I give it a thumbs up for having the guts and nuts to do it. I changed my mind, I could do better.
ReplyDeleteThe sad thing is that I couldn't do better, but there are extremely talented artists who I can use for my home games and to trigger some written inspiration.
