I got contacted by the good folks at www.simari.co.uk who offered to design a new banner for the Trollbridge. For free. While I haven't decided if I want to take them up on their offer, I did look at their stuff. They are the guys who designed the banner for "Hobgoblin's Tavern" and the "Trollhalla Friendly" logo. Pretty nice stuff. If you need any sort of artwork you might give 'em a look.

Hold on just one minute! You telling me these are the guys who did the cover for the old free-rpg day T&T rules? The one with Goblin Lake? That is one of my favourite covers...ever! Right up there with the Basic/Expert covers and Liz's T&T "Delvers kicking a troll's butt" cover.

Agreed with Skath. I dig the tone, look and feel of that booklet's cover.

Oh, they do great work. The only thing that is making me not snap up their offer is the fact that I really like the old Danforth cover in the present logo. (I got permission from Liz to use it and everything.) If not for that, I'd be grabbing a new banner right away!

So glad you like the Goblin Lake cover, Skathros and Machfront. It was a really fun piece to create - it's not often that I get to paint heroic goblins and giant squids in the same scene! Thanks for the kind words.

I like the current board logo, but it's really kewl that those guys said they'd do one for free.

Yep Ramsen Triton, the artwork on Goblin Lake's cover is my favourite, together with the Hunting Party cover :-)

Yikes, I really should log in here more often! Thanks, Mahrundl and Grrraall. The Hunting Party cover was another fun one to create. I really should get around to doing more of those "band of adventurers" type images.

I agree, even though i have an original copy of Goblin Lake, i've kept my freebie in far better condition just because the art is THAT good! Also loved the piece that was done for Trollcon UK. Need to get that baby framed!

Cheers, Cartomancer! That TrollCon print is very exclusive you know. One of only 7 in existence. Take it on the Antiques Roadshow in 30 years and who knows, it might actually be worth more than the frame you put it in. Doesn't look like I'm going to get to do an image for TrollCon UK this year, as it appears the event isn't going to happen.
