This one is a final for a PC game.



This one is rough but it happens to be for one of the greatest Star Wars game covers of all time.

Another collector here owns the final for this one I believe.



Wonder if he will post any here.   I know he's not on the forum much.   Prelim looks good too

It must be the crotch accent lines.

Hi,

Thanks for your interest.

NES Klashball = Powerball on genesis. Greg Winters did both of those (not Greg Martin, who did sonic games and a lot of cartoon character based stuff).

To my knowledge neither of those two gents did speedball 2; I see some resemblance though.   I will ask Greg W., you may be right.    If not by Greg perhaps the other illustrator was given his work as reference on what they wanted it to look like, for consistency.   

I initially answered that this wasn't his work, but what has me questioning myself is the knuckles in the foreground (see blue circles).    I can see that there is prismacolor there used to draw some lines (literally colored pencil on top of paint) and Greg did do that on some pieces - like Little Samson - from that time period.


Powerball for the Genesis was great 2 player fun!
 
Love it Curtis   when are ya gonna show the rest ?

Showing your true colors there Curtis.
USA FOR THE WIN !

Nice framework. Hey what is that in the lower right corner? A prelim?

 
USA! USA!

Thanks, this one is a beast I think its 30lbs. Yes, prelim color test, it fit so nicely beside the Genesis box cover I had to frame it in there too. I really like how it turned out even though some would prefer just the art solo in the frame.

 
Looks good. With this one I prefer it the way you did it.
The prelim is a nice touch.
