From ArtDrop | The ArtOrder

It’s time for another look inside the ArtDrop mail box.

: Charlene Chua • www.charlenechua.com

Alright, so Charlene and I met through ArtDrop a while ago, but she just sent me a few new pieces to oggle over. I’ve got one of her pieces at my place already, and I’m just trying to find a few more pennies (or hundred dollar bills) on the ground so I can afford another. I’ve got my eye on the swan piece (Lisa would love it)

Guilherme Guimaraes • http://guille.cghub.com

A nice combination of character images and environmental pieces were sent in by Guilherme. I’m always a sucker for solid concept and character work.

Cory Godbey • corygodbey.com/

Cory got our YA folks to stand up and take some notice. And showing (good) dragons with personality is always a ‘win’ with the D&D Art Directors.

Do you usually prefer actual images in the email, or would you prefer links to portfolios or both?
I’m asking because some art drops only prefer links.

I don’t have a preference. I do ask that you keep submission below 5mb (the servers will bounce your email otherwise), and that you include contact information…you know, just in case we actually like your work and want to contact you. You’d be surprised how many submissions don’t have contact info…

these are some delicious dragons, characters and enviro art

Great artists, all of them.

Cory Godbey needs to put some of that arty goodness in D&D. When I can no longer get work from WoTC because he is taking it all, I will take comfort in having his illustrations to drool over.

Congrats to all the wonderfull artists, but in special, to my buddy Guilherme – way to go dude!!!
