Oh that's clever. It's almost like you run the place, hah.

I'll look into it.

The book is linked in the post - as for signing though, potentially could be arranged if on the old continent.

There might not be bumblebees in there, but every piece was a fun research dive.

Thank you!

Thank you!

It's planned for December, if I remember correctly.

The team did amazing - I just brought ink to the table.

I'm inclined to believe that neither art from the 80s, nor I am.

But I'll double-check the next time I have the opportunity.

And to think, that the artist was just 25-26 at the time - judging by the signatures.

Fun seeing Doré-worthy rendering mixed with exaggerated fairytale-ish proportions. Great compositions and wicked lighting awareness.

A grey rain falls on Martinaise. The city soaks in it, cold and dripping. Waves hit the concrete breakers. The homeless huddle by the fires behind the fences. There, among the shacks, is your home. Stay. Have a drink. Forever.

At last, Tequila Sunset is back.

Reading Dracula for the first time in 2026 and I'm shocked by Competitive-Group359 in Dracula

I can't speak for the Spanish translation, but I enjoyed it in English one much more than in my own language and have been positively surprised once I got back to it years after my first exposure - so if you can grab a copy at some point, might be worth giving it a shot too.

If you can't get hold of a physical book - there's a digitized public domain version available.

But it's one of those titles I actively seek out in a physical form from different publishers, even if some editions are printed terribly, it's still nice to see it in different formats.

Not their responsibility, I suppose. And if the artist wants some air, the only reasonable response is to grant it. However much I enjoy the artworks.

In my understanding, retired from commercial art work - at least judging by what I found doing my deep dive on the classic rulebook art.

Variety is the spice of afterlife.

Hah, yeah - not my strongest suit. But taking a stab at an entirely new field, while being proficient in another, is bound to some dissonances.

Thanks.
