    If I’m not mistaken this was the cover for a version of Dungeons and Dragons. Classic art

      Can’t remember if it’s AD&D 2E or a box set. I still own the original hardcopy, but no longer have the boxes.

      I cannot overstate the impact that Elmore and his contemporaries did for the “look” of D&D in the late 1980’s and 1990’s. Between modules, rule books, and all the novels published at the time, their work was D&D.

        Even in modern 5.5E I feel like they still draw inspiration from the old Elmore art
