Description

Ok, this is a reeeeeeaally old one. Done back in around '92 or '93, but I just found this scan of it on a disc, so I figured I'd post it. Done for a cover to a computer game (even though I had barely any idea what a computer was back then) this is actually a scan of a promotional poster. The original painting was done in acrylics.

Legacy of Sorasil was the sequel to HeroQuest. It was a Gremlin project, not related with MB and the boardgame so it was released only as a videogame for Amiga CD32. Unfortunately he didn't had enough appreciation from the public, possibly because of the low success of the amiga CD32 system.

This was a really great cover! Did you also painted the art for the single characters that were featured on the back of the box? Four of them are still available at Gremlin Archive website but not all charaters are there:
