All of this material would be presented in a premium format artbook, utilizing access to as many of the original elements from Tom's archive as we have access to. Will be working on a few sample pieces & layouts over the next few weeks, stay tuned! Feedback greatly appreciated!
Had a lengthy convo yesterday w/ @dubois_fowler about greenlighting a comprehensive book of Tom duBois' Konami era video game artwork. Isolated ad pieces, original sketches, previously unseen logo free retouches of otherwise unavailable cover pieces, interview material, etc.

K78L-1028 / Zillion: Burning Night [OAV] (1988) / Production I.G. - Tatsunoko - Takayuki Goto / Laserdisc Jacket + Bonus [300dpi]: A fairly rare disc these days, with two pieces of fantastic art on the front & back. "Sayonara No Matchikado" by Risa Yuuki, what a tune...
