Peter Andrew Jones – To Here and The Easel

Kie — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 07:09:11 +0000

Back to retro 70′s Sci-Fi with another explosive illustration from Blog Fav Peter Andrew Jones. This Menacing looking craft has a strong resonance of past military avation tech, which is why I’ve selected it – very Harrier Jump Jet - http://is.gd/1qprC

“To Here and the Easel” dates from 1974 and is scanned from Peter’s glossy compendium Book “Solar Wind” which I’m lucky enough to have a copy of – book is available as well as prints and more at: http://peterandrewjones.net

Knights of the Crystallion

Kie — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 13:48:57 +0000

Another example of box art from the early 90s’s, Knights of the Crystallion (great title!) was a third person RPG mix of puzzling solving and exploring made solely for the Commodore Amiga in 1990 - so I think it’s safe to say, fairly obscure. Whats so appealing about this cover? it’s a smoke breathing Crystal Stallion hatching from an egg!

Knights of the Crystallion is an interesting looking Fantasy Game and one I’d never heard of until recently, read more at: http://www.mobygames.com/game/amiga/knights-of-the-crystallion

Peter Andrew Jones – Today We Choose Faces

Illustration used for the 1973 science fiction novel by Roger Zelazny.

No one does Sci-Fi costumes quite like Peter Andrew Jones; a ribbed and embossed figure hugging enviroment suit laced with intricate tubes and wiring. A slick helmet too with it’s slightly elongated shape and tech swoosh logo, all adds to the cool factor, and as with Blood Money – Peter Andrew Jones an excellent choice of Ray-Gun!

Blood Money – Peter Andrew Jones

Kie — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 13:11:49 +0000

More game box artwork, this time from 1990 ‘Blood Money’ produced for legendary UK software house Psygnosis, art by Peter Andrew Jones. Great moody character, thats more reminiscent of Star Trek then Stars Wars (ie: a lot fucking cooler) anyway love the tiny piggy eyes! The shot is ripped from the excellent Mobygames.com site, which is like imdb.com for computer games, well worth checking out if your a gamer.
