Cover to Archetype - Iconic Images and Cinematic Illustration Volume II
It's my pleasure to announce the digital release of Archetype to a worldwide audience today. The book is available in it's 300 + page entirety on Amusedom.com. Hard copies of the hardcover-only volume sell for $50.00 and are available to pretty much only a North American audience. The digital version of the book sells for 19.95 - Archetype covers my entire career, from my humble beginnings as a fan artist, to the first taste of professional work in the role-playing game industry, and far far beyond. In essence it is a career retrospective, but one I plan to continue to add to. Archetype features an introduction by the legendary Jim Steranko, and over 26 pages of text chronicling my beginnings to the present. Then there's the over 275 pages of artwork to check out - Along with commentary throughout.

Very cool site. If this site grows like a hub for illustrators it sure will be fantastic for both the artists and the fans. The price is unbelievable and the quality is good.
I for one was surprised to find Gustave Dore:)
Only one thing. I can't look at your Book there appears only a small rectangle on the screen showing a tiny part of your cover.
