Find Jim Contest!

Post by Deogolf »

Didn't exactly know where to put this, so I put it here!
Greetings everyone! It's been awhile since I've posted anything here. Just wanted to let you know that we've updated the website with some new artwork and will be posting more in the next couple of weeks - one of the new pieces can be seen on the homepage! Let us know what you think.

Also, we're running a little contest. Although Jim is notoriously elusive of the camera, we do have a picture of him on the website. The first one that can correctly identify which picture will win an autographed copy to the AD&D Monster Manual II - a book in which he did the vast majority of interior illustrations! Please be specific on illustration and location!

Here's the link again to start you off - www.jimhollowayart.com

Good luck, y'all!

Jim has been found!! For all those who are wondering, he can be found on the Paranoia page. He's in the Paranoia cover called "Stuff". He's the guy in the middle of the other two guys pointing guns at each other. In case you're wondering, the other two are his brothers!

Thanks for all of you who participated!

Thanks for the link!

Jim Holloway is a great artist - one of my first introductions to D&D were the Endless Quest books, with cover art by Elmore and interior art by Holloway. I liked how he often brought a sense of humor to his scenes of adventure.

Stupid me. My first thought was the suicide guy, but I opted to not post it. Oh well. Congrats to the goat. :)

Same here, Serleran. That guy was my initial thought too, but I opted for one of the guys on the "Extreme Paranoia" cover instead. My change of heart was based solely on the fact that one of the guys in line is clearly Elmore. I figured it was a line-up of artists.

*chuckles* I was amused by the cover that had Larry Elmore in it.

That would be me.

Side note: I'm impressed by his cover to Flashbacks. A well-done update and homage to the old Send in the Clones cover.
