Fighting Fantasy pics in colour!


In my spare time I've been creating full colour versions of some of my old Fighting Fantasy Gamebook illustrations. The paragraphs I illustrated for the books had to be done in a short time and under the constraints of a clear, easily printed black and white pen style. Why stop there? I wanted to have some fun and develop some of these images further, especially after I got my lovely Wacom tablet. Here's a couple of recent ones: The Conjurer and Felice is from Spectral Stalkers, by Peter Darvill-Evans, my first Gamebook, and the Giant Behemoth is from Bloodbones by Jon Green, my most recent one.

FRAGMENTS Book Is Out


I've been working on this for ages and it's finally ready.
You can now buy this collection of my illustration work!

FRAGMENTS - The Art of Tony Hough
Published via the Blurb website FRAGMENTS is a jumble of my fantasy, SF and horror work from over 20 years of illustration since I was first published by Games Workshop in the 1980s.

Same Blog, New Name!


My old blog accidentally became associated with the wrong email address and stupid Google wouldn't let me change it no matter what we tried. Eventually I got tired of filling in those stupid forms and getting the same useless response from Google's automated reply thing so I decided to delete and start again - what an annoyance!!!!
Work continues on my book, which is named after this blog:
Fragments - The Art of Tony Hough is going to be self-published via the Blurb website. I'm aiming to get it ready for the end of March if possible. It currently runs at 50 pages or so. As soon as it is ready a link will appear on here, on my website, Facebook group and pretty much everywhere else I can think of!!
