In this sense Loubet's work makes for the best cover for this game - it also helps that it was probably one of his best works overall, too (this, and the Demon summoning painting originally on Space Gamer mag and later the cover of the 1st print of GURPS Fantasy)<br /><br />Hidy is my favorite, though. When I think of TFT art, it's his that comes to mind first, even over Roger Stine's cover art for the Advanced and ITL books. Whether it's Hidy's cover paintings for games/TFT supplements or pen and ink drawings it's his stuff that I like the most, hands down.<br /><br />Similarly, for D&D, it is Sutherland's and Trampier's work on the early editions that I prefer over most of the later artists. Sutherland's Red Dragon on the cover of the first "Basic" D&D boxed set is my all time favorite for D&D, and maybe for any system.Angantyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07583089145943203408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302006111768166058.post-63943206138846804112017-08-29T01:50:03.452-07:002017-08-29T01:50:03.452-07:00s even better than the awesome cover for the origi...s even better than the awesome cover for the original Melee done by Hidy (3rd print and later).<br /><br /><br />** <a href="https://goldenslot.gclub-casino.com/" rel="nofollow">สล็อต ออนไลน์ ได้ เงิน จริง</a>**<br />** <a href="https://goldenslot.gclub-casino.com/goldenslot-mobile/" rel="nofollow">goldenslot mobile</a>**SADLOVEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00154588832536084804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302006111768166058.post-55529754960411051662017-04-17T00:40:17.886-07:002017-04-17T00:40:17.886-07:00mail me at BGG name Ren2... about TFT... greetings...mail me at BGG name Ren2... about TFT... greetings...Ranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08655542947013121691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302006111768166058.post-87475900798633881402017-03-31T14:42:03.996-07:002017-03-31T14:42:03.996-07:00Well, Denis Loubet really deserves the credit.

Though I like much of Pat Hidy's work better, this one painting in particular does a great job of conveying a one-on-one battle, and is even better than the awesome cover for the original Melee done by Hidy (3rd print and later).Angantyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07583089145943203408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302006111768166058.post-85178488132526604442017-03-31T11:31:46.514-07:002017-03-31T11:31:46.514-07:00I really like your thoughts on the content.
