    I like Corey Wolfe. I didn’t realize he did this box. He is an artist who should be widely known due to his published Disney artwork. Maybe one day he and so many others will finally be more recognized.

    It’s nice to see both images. I don’t think they did much better hiring a different artist though.

    I remember when David Rowe posted lots of his video game artwork. When I contacted about some I wanted including this and a Friday the 13th piece, he told me he would give his usual buyers a chance first. In the end, I never got anything from him. I’m glad this piece made into a good home though! I guess you were one of his buyers he was accustomed to dealing with.

    Yeah, nicely done! If all of his work is comparable to this Lemmings piece, they will be amazing. I need to redo these pictures in better lighting. It’s a very vibrant exceptional piece of video game artwork.

    Description: Oh No! More Lemmings, was an add on to the original Lemmings game. The levels were originally created for the first Lemmings but due to the length of the original release, some levels were left out. These are those and this painting was used for the Oh No! More Lemmings box art. Year: 1991 Medium: Mixed Media Image Area: Image Source: Original Condition: Very Good

    I’ve never played Star Fox but definitely understand the importance of this piece of art especially to the people who know the games. Congratulations on obtaining it.

    The fact that the shoe is the power up is pretty cool! I’m actually surprised Nike or Reebok weren’t used as advertising for a 90’s basketball game.

    Description: Drac’s Night Out was a game by Parker Brothers that even though advertised narrowly missed released in 1991. The game features the Reebok Pump shoe, which is a power up that helps Drac run faster and jump higher. A prototype game with a pre production label showing the artwork was found years ago. The game rom image is online and is fully playable. The objective of the game is for Dracula to escape the castle in hopes of finding his bride Mina. Once Dracula escapes the castle, he then goes into town in hopes of completing his search. Year: 1991 Medium: Acrylic on board Image Area: Width x Height IN/CM Image Source: Original Condition: Great
