Bruno Faidutti Show Offs the Art for Queens Necklace and Warehouse 51
July 21, 2015 - 11:12pm
Bruno Faidutti has released some of the art on his blog that will appear in two of his new games due out soon. Both Queens Necklace and Warehouse 51 have some of their artwork debuted on his blog and they look fantastic.
Queens Necklace will be illustrated by Denis Zilber, who is known in cartoon and animated characters and has done an fantastic job on this new version. He had tough shoes to follow from the beautiful Days of Wonder version shown here that was illustrated by Humbert Chabuel & Pierre-Alain Chartier. Queens Necklace will be released by Cool Mini or Not in collaboration with Spaghetti Western as reported previously here. It looks like limited copies will be available at GenCon.
Warehouse 51 is a new game and the art will be done by Brazilian artist Rafael Zanchetin. This will be the first game he has illustrated. Everything thus far looks wonderful and I look forward to this artist to illustrating more games in the future. Warehouse 51 will debut at GenCon and will be published by Funforge so stop by their booth to check it out.
The artwork for both games looks amazing and I can't wait to see the rest of it. Some folks say we are in the golden age of board games and that may be true but I would definitely say we are in the golden age of art for board games with all the amazing illustrations showing up in our games these days. Abyss may have raised the bar last year for artwork but this years releases are certainly rising up the challenge.
