FF SPOOF Page VIII: "DRACOS"

Fighting Fantasy Spoof: Page VIII

 

(2B pencil on 134mm x 100mm paper)

This would be the last page of the Fighting Fantasy spoof that I'm doing, but I've decided to add one more page to it before finishing with it completely.

FF Spoof Page VI: "THE THOMPSONARI BOW"

Page 6 of this spoof Fighting Fantasy series that I'm doing shows a dark elf with a machine gun. The background is a simple outline of a castle, diffused as if in a mist. I did this because the focus of the image was the character itself.

FF Spoof V: "THE NUBILE NYMPHS OF NUMARA"

Still continuing with the spoof celebration of 40 years of Fighting Fantasy books, I added this particular example of the difficult traps some of the FF books would have for the player.

FF Spoof IV: "DARIUS JUN"

I decided to go for the traditional wizard for the fourth Fighting Fantasy spoof image. Like with all these images, they work well on their own without the text, which is the way i want to keep them.

FF Spoof III : "THE OPPRESSED ORCS"

"The Oppressed Orcs"

(2B pencil on 150mm x 118mm paper)

It's been nearly 23 years since I did the first two of these Fighting Fantasy spoof images. I never planned to do any more, but since it's now the 40th Anniversary of the original Fighting Fantasy books, I thought I'd return to it, starting with this one.

You can see the previous two here

Unlike those first two pieces, the artwork for this third one (and the others I'll do) is pure Skav Art, meaning I only used one medium and no pre-concepts.

And it turned out quite well!

WIZBANG! Death-Ray Specs

Of all the comic-book ads which existed, the one that most tend to remember are the iconic "X-Ray Specs" ones. The original adverts tended to show the same character looking at the bones in their hand, or looking through the dress of a woman. It was responsible for many a child parting with their pocket money and was something of a catalyst in introducing them to this strange world of bullshit comic-book ads. I chose to spoof it here and kept the artwork for it very basic.
