Fantasy World-Building: A Guide to Developing Mythic Worlds and Legendary Creatures


Overview

When artists and designers explore or create a fictional setting, the milieu must be completely fleshed out, explained, and designed. Comics and gaming art veteran Mark Nelson explores and demonstrates his methods for fashioning visually stunning, believable environments for fantasy creatures and characters. Scores of images and step-by-step examples illustrate how variation and experimentation lead to fresh, original designs for otherworldly beings and their environments and stories. AUTHOR: Artist Mark Nelson specialises in designs for role-playing games and comic books. Since 1985, his work has appeared in many Dungeons & Dragons books and Dragon magazine. He has also produced artwork for the games Villains and Vigilantes, Earthdawn and Shadowrun, and Orpheus, and he has illustrated cards for the collectible game Magic: The Gathering.
