Mainly posting this here because of DCS reference.
Mainly posting this here because of DCS reference. I noticed last eve when looking thru Dungeon issue #1 that it lists DCS and also Jim Roslof in the art credits. It appears to be the only issue of Dungeon magazine that lists either of them. Most of the interior art isn't signed. At least the 1st half of the zine appears to be obviously illustrated by Jim Holloway. I can''t make out what may be by Roslof or DCS if any truly are.

Into the Fire is still one of my favorite D&D adventures ever.
ReplyDeleteI had some email conversations with Grant Boucher recently. His brother David that co wrote it with him passed away.
ReplyDeleteI noticed Roslof got an art credit for GW1 Legion of Gold, but the only unsigned art in the module was by Willingham. I believe Roslof was the cartographer for the module, and thus, suspect he may have been the one responsible for some or even ALL the maps in Dungeon #1
ReplyDeleteOh, and DCS may well be a carto-credit. It could also be, either or both produced logos, titles, or managed layout for the issue, and were listed as artists for the effort.
ReplyDeleteI believe DCS was doing a lot of cartography in his later years with TSR.
ReplyDeleteThere's at least on DCS piece in the ad for Dungeon on page 60. It's recycled art from an old Dragon.
ReplyDeleteThe ad for Dungeon magazine on page 65 has Roslof art.
ReplyDeleteSome of the adventures are illustrated by Roger Raupp. He illustrated many of the modules in Dragon magazine, and the Creature Catalogs. I always liked his work.
ReplyDeleteRoslof illustrated the cavalier (same one as in Unearthed Arcana IIRC) used in the Join The Crusade! advertisement. Normally an ad wouldn't really count, but since it's a subscription ad for the magazine itself, maybe it does in this case.
ReplyDeleteI have had some success with google image search in tracking down artists by their artwork.
