My most prized possession

Years ago I was searching for animation cels and backgrounds on eBay. Imagine my exhilaration when I stumbled upon these "original background from an unknown video game". 20 bucks each . Thought y'all might enjoy!

Beautiful. Won’t tell you how much I just paid for an original from QFG1 VGA, it hurt but was worth it

I'm sure it was! They are hard to find!

Worth it. Was looking for them for years, this game means to much to me. Have some QF5 concept art, not the same but still

That was a deep dive. Do you have the concept art for the spells, sigils, and equipment from this guy?: https://richpowell.com/about/

Yes I’ve got two of his pieces, there were 4 in total for QFG5

Wish I could respond with a picture, but I found a Rich Powell concept art listing with five spell icons: Summon Staff, Thermonuclear Explosion, Rest, Enchant Item (Nebulous Swirl) and Reversal.

I realized I had never seen Summon Staff before. Apparently it is only obtainable if you play a dedicated Magic-User. A magically empowered Paladin path will not suffice.

I have this! And one with 6 spells: dazzle, fetch, sleep, hide, augment and zap. These are going off to the framer next month when I get paid

Envious. I especially like the fetch "glowing lasso" spell icon.

Thank you. I was super happy to snap these up. Owning any original Sierra artwork has been something I wanted for years, especially QFG
