It never actually works out the way I saw it in my head, but I try to get it to a point where I’m satisfied with it. Q: What were some of the challenges you encountered with this particular piece of art? Is there a different approach to illustrating comics versus art for a toy product?Ī: I think the biggest challenge I ever have is trying to capture what I imagine, and put it down on paper. Lawful good because I’m always scared to break rules.

I think I’m generally a happy, jovial person, so a Halfling fits.

I love nature, I love animals and I think Druids would probably like to sit around and draw in their spare time. Q: What’s the D&D character equivalent to Max Dunbar?Ī: I think I’d be a Halfling Druid, Lawful Good. Our group just finished Curse of Strahd, and there were some amazing moments where we thought we were done for, surrounded by undead, but just managed to escape. I’ve never laughed harder, or been more tense and worried, or scared in a short span of time like I have playing D&D. Q: What’s your fondest memory of playing the game?Ī: My favorite thing about playing D&D in general is the huge swings in emotion at the table the group can experience in the span of a few hours. A few years later I got to finally play 5e and I was hooked instantly. I didn’t know much about the game at all at the time, but had always loved fantasy as a genre, and was very keen to work with Jim Zub, so I was eager to work on it. Were you a player before working on the comic book series?Ī: My first real exposure to D&D was back in 2014 when I first started working on the comic “D&D Legends of Baldur’s Gate”.
