Dragon's Lair Poster

Another month, another awesome group theme from The Autumn society of Philadelphia! For August's "8-bit and beyond" show, I chose to illustrate my take on Dragon's Lair, the most gorgeous (and simultaneously frustrating) game of the 1980's. I had a chance to work out the sketches for this piece on my trip to LA last week, and i think the finished piece has retained some of that sun drenched 80's west coast vibe.

Whoah, I'm loving this...I was wondering if anyone would even remember this game!! The game was so lushly animated, but the controls were so damn hard!
