Norse gods? Yep! I plan to re-create *everything* I did at TSR, if I get enough support.
I can't tell you how much your art has influenced me! Thanks for doing this, Jeff.
Any plans to re-create the Norse gods drawings?
Thanks, Robert! That is indeed the plan :)
Jeff, as this and other projects become successful for you, we are looking forward to a "The Art of Jeff Dee" book, both ebook and coffee table book. :)
I've always liked artwork!!
Do a Elric Kickstarter. :)
hope to see all you work recreated :)
Thank you, Faust! Barrier Peaks is definitely one of the D&D books that I remember most fondly. As I work my way through re-creating my lost &D art, that book is near the top of my priority list :)
This project is like a dream come true. Would love to see all of your art recreated eventually. Your illustrations in Expedition to the Barrier Peaks and so many other books and adventure modules, kept our imaginations running and running! Thanks Jeff!
Thanks a bunch, Steven! I definitely plan on re-creating artwork from the adventures, as well as chapters of Deities & Demigods. Feedback like this will help me decide what's next!
Been a huge fan of your art since the days of playing D&D, V&V, and Space Opera, so I'm so happy to support this project.
If this Kickstarter project is successful (and I really hope it is) I would LOVE to see a compilation of your work on the AD&D modules. The cover of A1 is still one of my all-time favorites.
Thanks!
Thanks for your support, Colin!
Jeff -
I loved this art when I started playing the game. It helped plant the seeds that turned me into an actual game designer, so I'm delighted to give back at least a little. Thanks for the art, and thanks for the memories.
Thanks Arkhein, and thanks for your pledge!
This is an awesome idea. Good luck on the project, Jeff.
Thanks very much, Eric, and you're quite welcome!
You sir are doing your fans RIGHT. Best of luck and thank you for inspiring me to go into art, it has been a nice career.
