not been doing much art lately due ot health issues, but still doing some ;)
Dark Sun and Spelljammer are my faves, sorry Realmsians, when I do "generic" D&D it's usually "Realmsian" as I see the Realms as "normal D&D" if that makes sense?
anyway, new piece for Dark Sun
What matters Man, in the face of such barren majesty?

The surface of a star has many hot spots...older stars have more...I think that is how it goes. LOL
Sweet picture though! Very sweet indeed!
I don't know much about the planets, moons and etc. of Dark Sun...what are the two on the left? |
The Old Grey Box and AD&D for me! |

Kno,
Dark Sun's "sun" is meant ot be like that ;)
It's not just a "red Giant", it's been warped by several acts that "tapped" it's power, but screwed it up as a result
it looks more like lava than a normal sun and is enormous
If you check some of the 4th and 2nd ed official art you'll see what I mean :)
Dalor
thank you! :) *bows*
Athas has two moons: Ral and Guthay, one may have green vegetation and water on it, though for my art I just leave it dry ;) |

Indeed. I can definitely see myself using this imagery for my "eventual" DARK SUN campaign that I plan to run early next year, with the new 4e books supplementing material I've extensively drawn from the older 2e DS sources.

Wooly Rupert, The Sage,
cheers guys! :)
one reason I do this kind of stuff is to inspire folk to play so it's great when folk use it as inspiration in their games :)
and to maybe nudge WOCT into making Dark Sun and SPelljammer (my other fave art setting) as campaign settings again
well, one done, one to go! ;)
oh another tweaked version, joy of digitla art is it's easier to fiddle around with it ;)

| Blimey. That captures the Athas Atmosphere perfectly. I'm definitely going to hang on to that one. Hats off. |

| This'd be a great template for a (mis)adventure in the Calim or Anauroch deserts. Or really any desert setting. Excellent work, Silverblade. |

bladeinAm,
*boiws* thank you :)
Anauroch has always seemed more interesting/eerie than Calimshan, IMHO |
