Both myself and the artist had a rough old couple of years working on Gor. If you feel like exploring the artist’s work (Caution, NSFW) and helping him out, here’s some links…

#RPG Tales of Gor Preview Released!
#Gor #RPG Art Update
Just to prove things are still being worked on and getting closer to completion!
#RPG – Gorean RPG News!
Michael is back to work at a good ol’ pace, I’ve signed up a (fourth) artist to do the necessary cartography and they’ve undertaken to get that work finished by the end of the month.
I cannot apologise enough for the delays and I hope you can continue to be patient a little while longer.
Meanwhile, here’s some sketches to appease you 🙂
See? It’s not ALL male-dom.
#Gor – Update and Sketches
Since it has been so long since the last update, have some sketches of art.
We are a bit behind due to my illness and a couple of other factors, but I’m working hard to try and make sure the slippage doesn’t go too far.
#RPG – Soooooon…
While I rest amd recover, let’s show off some cool things.
First, a mock up of a possible/likely configuration of the first Gor cover, with completed art.
Second, a glorious cover for an OSR project, thanks to the efforts of the man, the artist, the legend, that is Gary Chalk.
Gorean Chronicles: Art by Michael Manning
The artist we hope to use throughout both books, Chronicles of Gor and World of Gor, is Michael Manning.
Michael Manning (born 1963) is an American comic book artist and writer, fine art illustrator, and traditionally trained animator currently based in Los Angeles, California. He is best known for his graphic novel series, The Spider Garden and Tranceptor, which combine elements of pan-sexual fetishism and BDSM culture with complex characters in science fiction and fantasy settings. He is also active in the supernatural horror and fantasy genres, drawing adaptations of the work of authors such as H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, and Alexandre Dumas for the Graphic Classics comics anthology series, as well as illustrating an anachronistic version of the German folk epic, The Nibelungen.
The more money we have, the more Michael we can afford, so please, help FUND IT.
These are prelim sketches for one piece, if you want to see what his finished work looks like, please click on The Nibelungen link above.
Michael’s style is stark, graphically intense and most importantly – different. He will give Gor a distinctive and definitive style and visual appeal.
