Tal was supposed to have an extensive product line (I wrote the piece on Imria two years ago - I think Adam did some pictures for it looking at his site), High Med had a long line of titles due, as did Atlantis. I think Morrigan got far to ambitious - great when the games sell well, but not when they don't as was the case. I bought one of those subscriptions too - I think I got one tal book for my money.

Of course, I'll regret typing it out here, but what the hell, right? ;)<BR/><BR/>I saw this coming. It was one of the two or three reasons I quit. The man still owes me (an average of) $250 per book with my artwork in it. PER BOOK. He had an interesting tendency to buy a piece of art at quarter page, then blow it up to full-page once he got it.<BR/><BR/>It not only made my art look bad (well, worse than usual), it effectively stiffed me out of $75.<BR/><BR/>And I still haven't been paid for the Windship and Harak texts. Probably never will. Sad that I'm not the only one, either.<BR/><BR/>Here's my take on it (and it's not pretty): At least Bolack had the sense to not print anything because he couldn't afford to pay his artists and writers. He didn't just publish it anyway, then ignore the people he owed money to.<BR/><BR/>And that's all foot I'm gonna eat on this subject. I've said too much already. Well, except for one thing:<BR/><BR/>I miss you, ShootingIron dudes! You ever pick up the license again, you make DAMN SURE you get ahold of me. I'm all yours. ;)<BR/><BR/>*smooch*<BR/><BR/>--Adam BlackAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10738063.post-1700383006203219192007-05-15T18:54:00.000-04:002007-05-15T18:54:00.000-04:00Well.
