Maybe it's because I'm the son of an artist, but I'm a very visual person. Despite being considered "booksmart" for most of my life (to say nothing of the fact that I've made a career in books and the written word in some form or another since graduating college), I'd much rather sit down with a nice portfolio than a good novel.
Accordingly, I make a habit of stashing away cool pictures I find on the Net, magpie-like. It gets to the point where I have far more than I know what to do with. Going through an old Downloads folder saved from a long-dead hard drive last night, I stumbled across a rich vein of inspirational pictures. Many have little or nothing to do with any current or feasibly near-future gaming plans (or...much of anything, really), so I present them here instead for the edification of my gentle readers. Do with them as you please...


















Mad kudos for the Black Death photo.
ReplyDeleteI scrolled down to the comments section to post about the Black Death picture, too...nice.
ReplyDeleteCleveland Metal!!!
A few months ago I came across this video of Richard Pryor with Black Death from an episode of his TV show from the 70s or 80s. I assumed at the time the band's name was a joke as part of the skit. It's very odd, with some Spinal Tap elements that preceded Spinal Tap, I believe.

My book really isn't intended for kids that young...
