The Far Too Amazing SF and Fantasy Art Thread

Really epic SF and Fantasy art has been ignored on this messageboard for far too long.

Is that last one Bespin or Corruscant? or neither?

demonrail666 · 12.09.2008, 01:51 PM

I don't think it's either

I'd say inspired by Bespin and Coruscant and other city-planets in SF.

I don't have time to make_many_picture_links, but http://www.peltorro.com/gallery.htm is one of my favorite sites.

Isn't Frank Franzetta considered to be one of the masters and innovators of the fantasy artwork medium? I saw a great documentary on him a few years back which was really good.

Anyway I was going to post some H.R. Geiger stuff and then stumbled upon this Polish artist's work by the name of Zdzislaw Beksinski (is that not one of the coolest names ever?). Pretty bleak and disturbing work, which I love.

demonrail666 · 12.09.2008, 02:54 PM

Yeah, that's awesome that one.

I also like the sort of moodier fantasy stuff, even if it is totally cliched:

If this picture were a band, they'd be loud.

This will only end one way: with me hunting for my ten sided dice!
