When I'm not sporadically posting my favorite magazine covers, I'm also drawing them!

I stumbled on this great Resident Evil 2 cover today and had to post it immediately!

Silent Hill f looks great! It remains to be seen if you'll have to fend off regular human nurses with a chainsaw like you apparently did in the original.

Gonna use this account for a bit of self promotion! I worked on my first magazine cover for RPM the unofficial Retro Playstation Magazine!

I haven't posted here in a while so here's a cover featuring Silent Hill 1. I love when you can tell the artist didn't have much too go on and did their best. I couldn't find any art credits for this image so if anyone has any ideas let me know!

Update! The artist is Alex Garner. Thanks to the twitter use with better eyes than me who spotted the credit on the bottom right of the cover! I can't believe I missed that!

Here's the image as it appears in the magazine.

The artist for this Resident Evil 3 Nemesis cover isn't credited and despite my digging I'm drawing a blank. If anyone has any ideas let me know!

Unlike some publications that failed to credit their cover artists, PSM would include a brief look at the creative process!

I promise I'm going to try not to make this a PSM fan account, but they had some of the best covers, like this one for Tomb Raider 4.

Now that we are fully funded we can show the final cover.

Our mystery game was Silent Hill 2. Issue 2 is bursting with games and we are getting asked to cover new games all the time. Guess we need to get more mags out.

I was also able to dig up the Inks only version.

Here's the image as it appears in the interior.

Kicking this account off with this classic! A great cover that couldn't be further from from the tone of the game!
