Classic Game Covers – Confessions of An Art Junkie

May 27, 2016 By ausretrogamer

CGC_TitleWhen we got our hands on Mike Winterbauer’s Classic Game Covers – Confessions of An Art Junkie eBook, we knew we had to let you all know about it! If you love video games box art, then this free eBook is for you – yes, we said *FREE*!

In Classic Game Covers, Mike showcases artwork of our favourite classic computer and console games, with his own personal commentary as an added bonus. As Mike succinctly puts it:

This book is a must read for computer gamers and artists who enjoy classic cover art of some of their favorite games. The book is visually beautiful and showcases all the classic covers I painted between 1985 and 1994. It also describes what it was like getting the commissions and painting them. This is a fun read for any one interested in being an artist and wondering what it is like to create classic cover art for games and movies. Told candidly and with a sense of humor you can learn the nostalgic history behind these paintings and many of my other paintings not lost to the digital age.

You can grab your free copy of Classic Game Covers – Confessions of An Art Junkie at Winterbauer Arts or on iTunes. This eBook is definitely worth downloading immediately!
