The art for Arise is also in Legends.
Other than exactly three DT pieces, I find Whelan's science fiction work much, much better.

My favourite is his fantasy work, especially the work he did for the Elric series.
I ponied up for piece of actual artwork.
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
I would be interested to know what 3 pieces you liked. I would have a very tough time picking only 3!He did Beneath the Remains and Chaos A.D. too.The art for Arise is also in Legends.

Which one did you go for David? I really wanted to go for Trinity rising or Canyon of DeathI ponied up for piece of actual artwork.
As a fan of Michael, excited to see his work getting the celebration it deserves.
I too, pledged my support in exchange for a piece of Original Art (Accidental Alien Landscape) and spoke with David yesterday regarding our soon-to-be-planned trip to Riverside, CA in February '17 to celebrate the opening.
Spoke with Audrey last night and they are very busy and yes, very excited as to the outpouring of support for his upcoming project.
Good stuff.
I really wanted to go for an original piece but hubs put his foot down since I already acquired a piece last month. I saw a few of these in person and Blinder is really cool up close. The colors are amazing. My first choice was Astral Muse and then Tanglewood.
Glad all the pieces got new homes.
Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
I paid $1500 to get Trinity Rising...love the color scheme and the mirror effect.Which one did you go for David? I really wanted to go for Trinity rising or Canyon of DeathI ponied up for piece of actual artwork.

Astral Muse was my second pick...was hard to choose!

I wanted one of the cheapest copy, but the shipping cost more than the book itself + too many expenses just now. Too bad it's a question of timing, i'll pass.

Decided to go for the kickstarter. Got the hardcover limited edition.
They've added more original art offerings to the Kickstarter today.
Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
I upped my pledge to get the Tripod Walker. I was all ready to save some money and not get any original art, then he had to add something DT related; guess it's time to get around to listing some stuff on ebay

Painted on the back of a misprinted Dark Tower image that we offer in the website shop. The print is on such a fine grade of heavyweight watercolor paper that I’m loathe to throw it away if there’s any hope of my reusing it for some other purpose. In this case, I was employing the paper as a mixing palette of mostly white, yellow ocher, and raw umber.
The shape suggested by a brush mark made me think of creatures described in Stephen King’s THE WASTE LANDS, long beaked, bird-like things that resemble "walking camera tripods". The image never left my mind after reading the book.
As I worked on the main painting—which at the time was HARBINGER—I tweaked the shapes here and there, added the legs, and covered some of the splashes that did not fit in with the mental picture in my head.
One day perhaps this sketch will lead to an actual illustration of the scene, which I’m sure should be darker and more hellish than what I indicated in this sketch.
